DOSING CONTROL COUPLING FOR ENTERAL FLUID TRANSFER AND ENTERAL COUPLINGS AND SYRINGES

An enteral dosing control coupling comprising a cylindrical collar defining a hollow internal chamber and a lumen extension tip projecting axially into the internal chamber, the lumen extension tip defining an internal lumen extending therethrough. In example forms, the lumen extension tip is integrally formed with the cylindrical collar. In other example forms, the lumen extension tip is a separate piece and is removably engageable within the cylindrical collar. In some example forms, the present invention relates to syringes, connectors, couplings, etc. having ISO 80369-3 formatted couplings. In other example forms, the present invention relates to connectors, couplings, etc. for adapting coupling formats other than the ISO 80369-3 coupling format to the ISO 80369-3 coupling format.

SYRINGE WITH TWO-STAGE SEALING PRESSURE
20210379290 · 2021-12-09 ·

A syringe includes a barrel, a plunger, and a sealing member creating a seal between the plunger and the barrel. The barrel includes a first portion with a first inner diameter and a second portion with a second inner diameter that is larger than the first inner diameter. The sealing member engages the first portion of the barrel to give rise to a first contact pressure when the barrel is filled with product. The first contact pressure is sufficient to maintain a gas-tight seal over the expected temperature ranges −25° C. to 40° C. A first force is applied to the plunger to overcome the first contact pressure and move the plunger out of the first portion and into the second portion to dispense product. The sealing member engages the second portion of the barrel to give rise to a second contact pressure that is lower than the first contact pressure. A second force lower than the first force is sufficient to overcome the second contact pressure and move the plunger in the second portion to continue dispensing product. The syringe may include a restraining element for accommodating expansion of the product during freezing.

SYRINGE TIP WITH FLUID WICKING DRIP FLANGES

Provided is a fluid wicking tip. The fluid wicking tip includes a plurality of drip flanges arranged to wick fluid between narrow spaces defined between any two drip flanges. The narrow spaces are dimensioned to facilitate wicking by capillary action. Also provided is a syringe that includes the fluid wicking tip. Also provided is a spike tip including a series of tiered drip flanges for retaining fluid spilled from a bulk fluid container during a syringe filling operation.

Flexible cap for conical connectors
11324938 · 2022-05-10 · ·

The present disclosure is directed to a flexible cap for a medical fitting, such as a luer-lock fitting. The flexible cap includes a cap component defining a top surface, a cylindrical wall extending opposite from the top surface of the cap component, and an inner sealing surface. The cylindrical wall defines a hollow interior configured to receive an internal tapered sealing wall of a male connector of the medical fitting so as to form a seal with an outer surface of the tapered sealing wall. Further, the inner sealing surface of the flexible cap is configured within the hollow interior. Thus, when the tapered sealing wall of the male connector of the medical fitting is received within the hollow interior of the cylindrical wall, the inner sealing surface of the flexible cap seals the fluid passageway of the tapered sealing wall.

CONNECTION STRUCTURE AND LIQUID MEDICINE ADMINISTRATION TOOL
20220008656 · 2022-01-13 · ·

A connection structure of a medical container includes a liquid medicine containing part that contains a liquid medicine and a liquid medicine discharge part that discharges the liquid medicine includes: a sealing member including a mounting part to be mounted to cover the outside of the liquid medicine discharge part, an opening formed in the mounting part in an extending direction of the liquid medicine discharge part, and an elastic sealing body disposed in a space between the opening and the liquid medicine discharge part and sealing the liquid medicine discharge part; and a connector including a connection needle that punctures the elastic sealing body, and a needle hub that holds the connection needle, in which the connector has a push-in structure that compresses the elastic sealing body when the connection needle punctures the elastic sealing body.

SYRINGE CAP, SYRINGE ASSEMBLY, AND PREFILLED SYRINGE
20220008660 · 2022-01-13 · ·

A syringe assembly of a prefilled syringe includes a syringe cap. A tapered section of a second tubular section constituting this cap has, on an outer peripheral surface of the tapered section, a plurality of stepped sections continuously arranged along a center axis of a cover member, so as to gradually increase a protruding amount of the tapered section from an outer peripheral surface of an annular peripheral wall section toward a vicinity of an outer edge of an opening of a first tubular section.

PREFILLED SYRINGE, SYRINGE ASSEMBLY, METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING PREFILLED SYRINGE, AND METHOD FOR INCREASING SURFACE AREA
20220001108 · 2022-01-06 · ·

A prefilled syringe includes a barrel body, a gasket that seals a proximal end side of a medicine chamber of the barrel body, and a cap that is attached to a tip and seals a distal end side of the medicine chamber. The cap includes a surface area increasing member that extends to the proximal end side, is inserted into a flow path of the tip, and protrudes to the medicine chamber to increase a surface area of a medicine solidified in a lump in the medicine chamber.

Systems and methods for submucosal tissue separation

The present disclosure relates to the field of medical devices generally and specifically, to endoscopic systems and methods for resection of malignant and pre-malignant lesions within the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. In particular, the present disclosure relates to systems and methods for delivering injectable compositions between tissue layers (e.g., between the muscularis and submucosa layers) to elevate and stabilize the lesion for fast and efficient resection.

Medication container having an end plug, use of a plug-securing part to secure an end plug in a medication container and plug-securing part

A medicament container for a syringe or carpule has a base body surrounding an interior at least in sections. The base body has a central axis and a proximal opening. An end plug is arranged in the interior such that the end plug in the interior is displaceable along the central axis and separates a first proximal region of the interior from a second distal region of the interior. A plug securing part is at least partially insertable into the second region through the proximal opening. When inserted into the interior, the plug securing part is arranged closer to the proximal opening than the end plug and is fixedly held in the interior by the positive and/or non-positive connection at least in a holding area.

Methods and devices for autoflush syringes

Described herein are syringe devices, systems and methods. In general, the syringe may include a first chamber and a cartridge movable within the first chamber. The cartridge may include a cartridge chamber and a valve in fluid communication with the cartridge chamber and the first chamber and having an open configuration and a closed configuration. The valve may allow movement of a liquid out of the cartridge chamber while in a open configuration. The cartridge may also include a second end, movable within the cartridge chamber, and a locking mechanism having a locked configuration and an unlocked configuration, the locking mechanism preventing movement of the second end within the cartridge chamber while in the locked configuration.
