Pen needle magazine
An attachable needle assembly (2) used on a medication delivery pen (4), the needle assembly (2) comprising a communication needle (10) configured to pierce a reservoir septum of the medication delivery pen (4), a spike housing (8) surrounding the communication needle (10) and configured to engage the medication delivery pen (4), a selector ring (16), including a selector opening (18), enclosing a septum (22, 30) of the needle assembly (2) defining a septum chamber (28, 29) that is in fluid communication with the communication needle (10), a plurality of needles (34) disposed in the septum (22, 30) of the needle assembly (2), and a peel tab (60) enclosing each of the plurality of needles (34), wherein the selector opening (18) is aligned with a selected peel tab (60) corresponding to a selected needle (40), the selected peel tab (60) is drawn out of the selector ring (16) and moves the selected needle (40) from a first position to a second position, and the selected needle (40) enters into fluid communication with the communication needle (10) in the second position.
Nocilytic Devices and Methods for Treatment of Dyspareunia
Nocilytic devices and methods for treatment of dyspareunia are provided. In particular, a device is provided, which inserts intravaginally with inflatable balloons to map the location of pain during application of force exerted against/on the luminal side of the vaginal wall and/or vulva of a human patient, or sensors to detect locations for application of nocilytic therapy.
Rectal Injection Device And Method Of Operation Thereof
A rectal injection device configured to inject a liquid into the tissues around the internal anal sphincter of a rectum. The rectal injection device comprises: i) an elongated tube having a distal end and a proximal end; ii) a rounded head coupled to the distal end of the elongated tube; iii) a needle extending from the proximal end of the elongated tube into the rounded head, wherein a tip of the needle is aligned with a hole in the rounded head; and iv) an actuator mechanism configured to move the needle to a deployed position in which the tip of the needle extends through the hole and into the anal tissues and to move the needle to a retracted position in which the tip of the needle is withdrawn within the rounded head.
HIGH-LOAD MICRONEEDLES AND COMPOSITIONS FOR SKIN AUGMENTATION
The present invention provides microneedles for administration of biocompatible materials effective in augmentation of skin or other skin treatments, and applicators comprising such microneedles. In particular, the microneedles and applicators of the present invention are aimed at filling the undesired lines, wrinkles, depressed scars and folds of a subject's facial and neck skin and restoring youthful fullness to the skin.
Dual syringe with funnel feeding kit
The present invention is directed to multi-liquid loading and delivery kits comprising a first storage vessel for a first active component, a second storage vessel for a second active component, at least two transfer syringes, at least two vial adaptors, at least two cannulas with a through lumen and a multi-liquid delivery device. The delivery device has dual hollow cartridges, each with at least one throughbore at one end and plunger access at the opposing end, a kick stand, a removable dual feed funnel, a spray or drip manifold and at least one spray or drip tip assembly.
METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DELIVERING DRUGS TO THE SPINE OF A PATIENT, AND/OR FOR DELIVERING OTHER MATERIALS AND/OR DEVICES TO THE SPINE OF A PATIENT
A drug delivery system comprising: a plurality of needles; a needle guide for guiding and holding the plurality of needles during insertion into a patient's spine; a syringe containing a drug which is to be delivered into the patient's spine; a port multiplier comprising an inlet port connectable to the syringe and a plurality of outlet ports; and a plurality of tubes for providing fluid connections between the outlet ports of the port multiplier and the plurality of needles.
INSERTION TYPE DRUG INJECTION DEVICE
The present disclosure relates to an insertion type drug injection device capable of being inserted into a body for injecting a drug into a skin, including: a main body having an open insert part and formed in a tubular shape having a hollow space therein, a needle assembly formed in the insert part, provided with a plurality of needles, and including a pneumatic port and a drug injection port, and a drug injection pipe inserted into the main body and connected to a drug injection port of the needle assembly, and an air flowing pipe connected to the pneumatic port.
Device for controlled puncturing of an object
The present invention relates to a A device for puncturing an object, in particular a bodily vein, comprising: a body defining an inner cavity with at least one opening and a perforating needle extending in the cavity and being movable in the cavity between a resting position and an active position where the needle extends at least partially through the opening outside the cavity, and actuating means arranged to move the needle between the resting and active positions. The actuating means comprises a tuneable multistable driving mechanism comprising at least a multistable element having a determined switching load, the multistable element being fixedly arranged between the needle and an inner wall of the cavity, and an actuator for transmitting energy to move the needle between the resting and active positions when the energy reaches the switching load.
Injection device and method
An injection device is used for tattooing markers inside the heart of a patient at specific locations. Placement within the heart of markers, such as points marked with a radiopaque dye, may reduce the use of x-ray dye and echocardiography, may allow a quicker cardiac procedure, and thus may improve the procedure outcome for the patient. Alternatively or additionally to cardiac marking with a radiopaque dye, cardiac tissue fibrosis, cardiac tissue contraction, and/or cardiac tissue stiffening (or hardening) can be promoted at specific locations by delivering a suitable substance.
SYSTEMS FOR INHIBITING HETEROTOPIC OSSIFICATION
Systems for treating a targeted volume of muscle tissue to inhibit heterotopic ossification (HO) employ a delivery device including a reservoir containing a neuromuscular inhibitor and an injector assembly. The injector assembly can include an arrangement of needles and an injector operable to pass the neuromuscular inhibitor from the reservoir through the needles. The injector assembly can be configured to eject predetermined aliquots of a therapeutic dose of the neuromuscular inhibitor. The injector assembly can be shaped to compliment a targeted volume of muscle tissue within a larger volume of muscle tissue. The delivery of the aliquots can result in a therapeutic distribution of the therapeutic dose of neuromuscular inhibitor within the targeted volume of muscle tissue that is sufficient to prevent formation of an HO lesion but insufficient to induce paralysis of the larger volume of muscle tissue.
