A multi chamber syringe unit includes a body, a separating element and a bypass arrangement. The body has a distal end side, a proximal end side opposite to the distal end side, an interior limited by a side wall between the distal end side and the proximal end side and a longitudinal axis centrally extending from the distal end side to the proximal end side through the body. The separating element is arranged in the interior of the body forming a distal chamber between the distal end side and the separating element and a proximal chamber between the proximal end side and the separating element. The bypass arrangement is a section of the body in which the interior has a constant noncircular cross section orthogonal to the longitudinal axis. The multi camber syringe unit allows for being efficiently prepared and for efficiently providing or administering high quality of prefilled products.

A processor receives an image of a syringe. After identifying a background and foreground of the image, where the foreground indicates pixels that may be associated with a defect, the processor subtracts the background to generate an updated image with an accentuated foreground. The processor applies a bounding box to a group of pixels in the foreground and inputs the bounding box into a classifier. The classifier outputs a label indicating whether the syringe is defective.

A delivery device for delivering an instrument into a catheter assembly may include a syringe having a barrel and a plunger movable within the barrel. In response to depression of the plunger within the barrel, an instrument may be advanced distally. The instrument may include a catheter, a probe, a light tube for disinfection, or another suitable instrument. In response to depression of the plunger within the barrel, a distal end of the instrument may move through a catheter assembly coupled to the delivery device and into vasculature of a patient.

A syringe assembly having a barrel for storing a medication and a stopper positioned within the barrel and having an opening, the stopper separating the proximal and distal sections of the barrel. A plunger is movable axially within the barrel. A cover extends radially from the plunger, the cover movable within the barrel from an open position to a closed position, wherein in the open position the cover exposes the opening in the stopper to enable the medication to flow within the barrel from the proximal section to the distal section and in the closed position the cover covers the opening to prevent the flow of medication from the proximal to the distal section.

A plungerless aspiration and/or injection device and a method of using the same are disclosed herein. The plungerless aspiration and/or injection device includes a housing; a needle portion disposed in the housing, the needle portion configured to be selectively retracted and extended by a user, the needle potion comprising a needle tip configured to be inserted into tissue of a patient for aspiration, injection, and/or implantation; and a bulb portion disposed in the housing, the bulb portion defining a fluid containing cavity that is fluidly coupled to the needle portion, and the bulb portion being elastically deformable so that the user is able to perform the aspiration, the injection, and/or the implantation on the patient by manipulating the bulb portion.

A system for injecting includes a syringe body having proximal and distal ends, a syringe interior, and a syringe flange at the proximal end thereof. The system also includes an injectable fluid disposed in the syringe interior. The system further includes a finger flange coupled to the syringe flange. Moreover, the system includes a stopper member disposed in the syringe interior. In addition, the system includes a plunger ratchet member coupled to the stopper member. The system also includes a plunger tube disposed coaxially around at least a portion of the plunger ratchet member and operatively coupled thereto.

The present disclosure relates to a syringe including a container, for containing a primary fluid, and at least one secondary fluid chamber configured to contain a secondary fluid. The container comprises a proximal end and a distal end and having a distal end opening at the distal end. The syringe further comprises a stopper, movably arranged within the container; and a plunger engageable with the stopper and configured to apply a force to the stopper to move the stopper within the container towards the distal end of the container, to expel primary fluid from the container through the distal end opening. The plunger is further configured to expel secondary fluid from the at least one secondary fluid chamber towards the distal end opening, to expel at least a portion of a residual volume of primary fluid through the distal end opening. A plunger system and assembly for a syringe and methods of expelling fluid from a syringe are also disclosed.

A housing suitable for use with one of a plurality of containers containing a medical substance, wherein the plurality of containers have different outer diameters, the housing comprising: one or more internal projections at a distal side of the housing for blocking distal movement of a first container when the first container is received within the housing, wherein the first container has a first external diameter; one or more inwardly projecting ridges provided proximally from said one or more internal projections, wherein the ridges are suitable for blocking distal movement of a container holder which holds a second container when the container holder is received within the housing, wherein the second container has a second external diameter which is smaller than the first external diameter.

A syringe with passive needle protection for administering a medicament dose to a patient, comprising a hollow body forming the syringe housing and containing the medicament active substance, at the distal end of which a hollow needle provided for injection of the active substance is mounted in a bearing sleeve, and in which a displaceable plunger provided at the end with a receiving hole for the hollow needle is arranged, for the most complete possible delivery of medicament while avoiding undelivered medicament residues. For this purpose, the piston is designed in several parts; in addition to a needle holder having a retaining clip for the hollow needle, it comprises a piston jacket which is shaped such that, when the needle holder is inserted, it leaves free inflow channels into the enclosed end of the hollow needle for the active substance on both sides of the retaining clip.
