A medical rubber composition can contain, comprise, consist, or consist essentially of: (a) an isobutylene-isoprene rubber: (b) a diene-based rubber; and a silica having a BET specific surface area not lower than 130 m.sup.2/g. An amount of (a) the isobutylene-isoprene rubber contained in 100 parts by mass of a rubber component composed of (a) the isobutylene-isoprene rubber and (b) the diene-based rubber can be larger than 30 parts by mass and smaller than 55 parts by mass.

A fluid delivery manifold system assembled and configured to allow delivery of a single dose of a therapeutic agent (e.g., vaccine, drug, medicament, etc.) from a Blow-Fill-Seal (BFS) vial to a patient. The delivery assembly generally includes a modular manifold design consisting of separately constructed components cooperatively arranged and coupled to one another. The modular manifold construction allows for rapid manufacturing reconfigurations of one or more components with minimal costs to create new delivery manifold configurations that meet specific needs (i.e., different modes of delivery depending on agent to be delivered, such as subcutaneous, intramuscular, intradermal, intravenous injection, spray, or droplet delivery).

An injector (10) for injecting a medicament into a patient. The injector includes a container (18) defining a first chamber (22), which contains a fluid therein, and a second chamber (23). The injector also includes an injection conduit (126) configured for directing the fluid fired from the container into the patient. A transfer mechanism is operable by a user to transfer the fluid from the first chamber to the second chamber in a first stage of operation, and a firing mechanism is operable by the user for firing the fluid from the second chamber through the injection conduit in a second stage of operation. An energy source (62) is in powering association with the firing mechanism to drive firing mechanism in the first and second stages.

The present invention relates to a delivery device for delivering predetermined amounts of fluid, comprising a body (10), a container (16) filled with fluid to be delivered arranged inside said body, said container comprising an opening for expelling said fluid and a wall (18) movable inside said container (16), a threaded plunger rod (46) arranged movable inside said body (10) in the longitudinal direction and in contact with said movable wail (18), a manually operated push means (14, 60) movable in the longitudinal direction capable of, upon operation, move said plunger rod (46) towards said movable wall (18), thereby expelling fluid, and means for transforming a generally linear movement of said push means (14, 60) to a rotational movement of said plunger rod (46).

A dual lumen IV administration set includes a first lumen having an inner diameter of a first value. A second lumen is paired with the first lumen, and the second lumen has an inner diameter of a second value that is greater than the first value. A flow merger merges flow output from a distal end of the first lumen and flow output from a distal end of the second lumen to form a single flow output in an exit lumen. An injection port intersects the first lumen, thereby providing injection access to flow therethrough, prior to merging with the flow output of the second lumen.

A needle hub (10) includes a core mounting structure (27), a first panel (28) and a second panel (29) connected to the core mounting structure (27) with an opening formed between the first panel (28) and the second panel (29), an introducer needle (72) fixedly attached to the core mounting structure (27) for insertion into a patient, and an actuation lever (16, 18) cantilevered longitudinally at a central portion thereof from the core mounting structure (27) and having an actuation button (12, 14) disposed at a proximal free end and a latch (24, 26) disposed at a distal free end.

An injection device includes a carrier, a needle, a driver coupled to the needle, the driver being slidable relative to the carrier between a retracted configuration and a deployed configuration, a shuttle configured to move the driver between the retracted configuration and the deployed configuration, and a stop configured to move from a first configuration to a second configuration, wherein the stop is configured to maintain the driver in the deployed configuration, and movement of the stop from the first configuration to the second configuration allows the shuttle to move the driver from the deployed configuration to the retracted configuration.

An autoinjector housing includes a cylindrical case enclosing an interior space capable of accommodating an autoinjector mechanism, a cylindrical cap removably attachable to the cylindrical case, and optionally a cylindrical overmolding. An exterior cross-sectional shape of the cylindrical case is oblong along at least a portion of its axis. An exterior cross-sectional shape of the cylindrical cap may be varied along its axis such that there is a gradual decrease in cross-sectional area from an open end toward a closed end and a step-up in cross-sectional area approaching the closed end. An end of the cylindrical case may be covered by the cylindrical overmolding, which may have non-uniform radial thickness and may be made of a material having elasticity.

A needle cap and a dialysis circuit priming device with increased safety and convenience in the cleaning and priming of a blood circuit are provided. According to the present invention, a needle cap is provided including two needle connecting parts, and a flow path connecting the two needle connecting parts. A dialysis circuit priming device is also provided including two needles, two needle connecting parts each arranged with the two needles respectively, and a flow path for connecting the two needle connecting parts.

An autoinjector includes a case adapted to hold a medicament container having a needle, a needle shroud telescopically coupled to the case, and a plunger rotationally and slidably disposed in the case. The needle shroud is movable between a first extended position relative to the case in which the needle is covered and a retracted position relative to the case in which the needle is exposed. The plunger is rotatable relative to the case between a first rotational position in which the plunger is engaged to the case and a second rotational position in which the plunger disengages the case. The needle shroud is operably coupled to the plunger. When the needle shroud translates from the first extended position to the retracted position, the plunger rotates from the first rotational position to the second rotational position.
