The present disclosure relates to a medicament delivery device. The medicament delivery device comprises a housing, a needle and a reservoir. The needle is configured to project from a distal end of the housing. The reservoir is disposed in the housing and has a flexible wall. The medicament delivery device further comprises a dispensing member and a biasing member. The dispensing member is disposed in the housing and the biasing member is configured to bias the dispensing member to move in an arcuate path relative to the housing such that the dispensing member moves across the flexible wall of the reservoir to dispense medicament from the reservoir when the reservoir contains medicament.

Disclosed herein are various embodiments providing an expandable, flexible reservoir for use in a wearable drug delivery device. The reservoir comprises a flexible enclosure made with plastic film which incorporates pleats forming the side walls thereof to increase the volume efficiency and to avoid a “pillowing” effect when the reservoir is filled. The pleats may be formed at non-right angles with respect to each other such as to form a curved side walls for the reservoir. In variations of the invention, various methods are disclosed for maintaining a vacuum with the reservoir during its shelf life.

A method of dispensing a therapeutic fluid from a line includes providing an inlet line connectable to an upstream fluid source. The inlet line is in downstream fluid communication with a pumping chamber. The pumping chamber has a pump outlet. The method also includes actuating a force application assembly so as to restrict retrograde flow of fluid through the inlet while pressurizing the pumping chamber to urge flow through the pump outlet. A corresponding system employs the method.

A device for targeted delivery of a substance to an airway may include a conduit and at least two applicators. The conduit may include a proximal end and a bifurcated distal portion having two distal ends. Each applicator may be coupled with one of the distill ends of the conduit and may be configured to direct the substance out of the applicator toward one of two sides of an airway. A method for targeted delivery of a substance to an airway may involve advancing a substance delivery device into the airway, contacting two sides of the airway with at least two applicators of the substance delivery device, such that each applicator contacts the airway near a glossopharyngeal nerve and/or a superior laryngeal nerve on each of the two sides of the airway, and delivering the substance through the applicators to contact the airway along the two sides.

Provided is a medicine injection device capable of injecting a liquid medicine into a human body by using a medicine container configured to discharge the medicine contained therein along a designated path when a pressure is applied from outside, the medicine injection device including one or more medicine pressing units including one or more inflatable parts capable of being inflated by air to apply a pressure to the medicine container, and a first pumping unit capable of inflating one of the inflatable parts by including a first pump capable of generating air of a preset pressure, and a first pipe connectable to the one of the inflatable parts. According to the present invention, a risk of breakdown and a total manufacturing cost may be reduced due to a simple structure of the medicine injection device.

A delivery device includes a base body having an outlet opening and a chamber for receiving a flowable substance to be administered. The base body, having first and second film portions attached to each other by a connection with a plurality of regions, being configured to discharge the substance through the outlet opening by compressing the chamber. The delivery device further includes a pouring adapter tightly connected to the outlet opening. The plurality of regions of the connection include a more resilient region and a less resilient region that are arranged between the chamber and the outlet opening. When the chamber is compressed to discharge the substance through the outlet opening, the less resilient region is configured to come undone and the more resilient region is configured to remain connected so that the substance can be discharged solely through the outlet opening and the pouring adapter by compressing the chamber.

A drug delivery device includes a drug product container, a pressurized vessel, and an urging member. The drug product container can have at least one flexible wall and defining a cavity configured to contain a drug product. The pressurized vessel can contain a gas under pressure. And the urging member is in working connection with the pressurized vessel such that, upon at least partial release of the gas under pressure, the urging member moves from a first portion of the drug product container to a second portion, thereby ejecting at least a portion of the drug product from the drug product container.

Self-pressurizing fluid deliver systems and devices and methods of using the same. An exemplary pressurized sterile fluid storage bag system referenced herein includes a foam cavity formed from a rigid, non-conforming material and an elastic, conforming material and containing a resilient open cell or closed cell foam with capabilities to restore form when compressed, an air valve, a fluid cavity formed from said elastic, conforming material on one side and a material which may be rigid and non-conforming or elastic and conforming, and a fluid valve.
