An antiseptic medical cap that may include a base, a sidewall, and a chamber configured to receive a proximal end of a medical fluid port having an opening. The antiseptic medical cap, in some instances, may include an insert having a gas-releasing anti-microbial compound and/or include a nitric oxide-releasing system that is configured to be positioned at least partially through the opening of the medical fluid port when the antiseptic medical cap receives the proximal end of the medical fluid port into the chamber.

An assembly for a drug delivery device comprises a housing, a dose member which is displaceable in a proximal direction with respect to the housing for setting of a dose of a drug, a clutch member which is displaced in the proximal direction with respect to the housing when setting the dose, and a stop member configured to define a clutch stop position. The clutch member and the dose member are configured to mechanically cooperate with one another when the clutch member is in the clutch stop position, thereby preventing further displacement of the dose member in the proximal direction with respect to the housing during setting of the dose.

A syringe assembly including: (1) a syringe barrel defining a chamber; (2) a plunger mounted in the chamber and moveable with respect to the barrel; and (3) a cap holder assembly containing a cap and an absorbent material removably attached to the syringe.

A syringe assembly including a plunger rod having a first end, a second end, and a rod portion extending therebetween, wherein at least a portion of the rod portion is flexible is disclosed. The flexible portion of the rod portion allows a stopper to be moved between a first position and a second position within a syringe barrel while the overall length of the syringe assembly remains the same throughout the movement between the first position and the second position. In another embodiment, a syringe assembly including a restraining member adapted to communicate with the flexible portion of the rod portion such that movement of the first end of the plunger rod in a first direction actuates movement of the second end of the plunger rod in a second direction different than the first direction is disclosed.

Embodiments disclosed herein include needle-free syringe and cap assemblies and filling tub systems. One embodiment of filling tub system includes a filling tub having exterior walls and a floor. The floor is formed into a plurality of sockets configured to receive and support a plurality of cap and syringe body assemblies, with each cap and syringe assembly received in a separate socket. Furthermore, each socket is configured to receive and support a syringe and cap assembly with contact only between one or more surfaces of the socket and selected outer surfaces of the cap. Methods of pre-filling a quantity of needle-free syringes are also disclosed.

A method and apparatus for sealing a biologics delivery system, said applicator including two adjoining syringes, each having a barrel and an exit tube distal to the barrel, and an interchangeable delivery tip, having a delivery tip connector portion, and storage cap, each connectable to the exit tube of each barrel, and having a fixed internal O-ring for fluid-tight connection between the delivery tip and storage cap and said exit tube.

A syringe is provided having a hub with an orifice, first and second barrels having interior surfaces to form respective lumens, a slider, and an optional test indicator. The first and second barrels slideably receive respective first and second plungers for movement therein. The slider is operable to provide a fluidly communicative path between the orifice of the hub and the first and second barrel lumens. The optional test indicator is responsive to at least one characteristic of bodily fluid, the test indicator positioned to be exposed to any bodily fluid drawn into the first barrel lumen and visible from an exterior of the first barrel.

A syringe assembly (2) comprises a syringe barrel (4) comprising an inner chamber (14) filled or adapted to be filled with medicament, and a channel (18) in fluid communication with the chamber and through which medicament is dispensed. The assembly further comprises an outer sheath (6) configured to be removably attached to the syringe barrel, and comprising a projection (40) which is received by the channel when the outer sheath is attached to the barrel, thereby creating a seal, which prevents medicament from flowing therethrough.

A nozzle cap (1) is provided, which is formed from a rubber composition containing a rubber component including a diene rubber and a non-diene rubber, wherein the diene rubber is present in a proportion of 20 to 70 parts by mass based on 100 parts by mass of the total of the rubbers in the rubber composition. The nozzle cap (1) has a moderate gas transmission property and, hence, can be quickly sterilized by EOG sterilization and steam sterilization, quickly removed of residues by deaeration, and quickly dried in a shorter period after the steam sterilization. In addition, the nozzle cap (1) is less liable to be loosened due to increase in internal pressure and compression set and detached from the nozzle, and has a reduced leaching substance amount before and after the sterilization.

The invention provides a syringe assembly comprising a syringe barrel having an inside surface defining a chamber, an open proximal end, and a distal end having an opening therethrough. An elongated plunger rod extends between a first end and a second end, with a cap or guard disposed on the first end of the plunger rod. A plunger head extends within the chamber of the syringe barrel, and is adapted for slidable movement within the syringe barrel between the proximal end and the distal end, with the second end of the plunger rod connected with the plunger head through a pivotable connection. The plunger rod is adapted to pivot with respect to the plunger head between a first position in which the guard is adjacent the distal end of the syringe barrel and a second position in which the plunger rod is in general axial alignment with the syringe barrel, and is further adapted for axial movement so as to cause sliding movement of the plunger head through the syringe barrel to expel contents thereof.
