This medical container includes a tubular barrel defining a reservoir for a medical product and a longitudinal distal tip defining a fluid path in communication with the reservoir in order to allow the medical product to be expelled from the medical container. The distal tip and the barrel are made of glass and the distal tip is provided with a thread, the thread being configured to connect the distal tip to a connecting element having a complementarily shaped internal thread.

A syringe set, a syringe and a set include a first syringe having a first connection port and a drug container having a second connection port. The first connection port includes an injection needle attachment structure to which an injection needle is attachable, and a blocking member that is disposed in the injection needle attachment structure and blocks attachment of the injection needle. When the second connection port is connected to the first connection port, the blocking member is connected to the second connection port side, and when the second connection port is detached, the blocking member is detached from the first connection port so as to allow the injection needle to be attached to the first connection port.

An injection device including a syringe including a barrel having a distal end and a proximal end and a tip provided on the distal end of the barrel, the barrel defining an internal bore extending from the proximal end to the distal end of the barrel; a luer lock adaptor including a body having a proximal end and a distal end, a reduced-diameter portion provided on the proximal end of the body, and a threading provided on an outer surface of the body, the reduced-diameter portion defining an opening to receive the tip of the syringe in a friction fit; and a needle hub including a body defining an inner cavity, a needle receiving portion extending distally from the body, and a skirt extending inwardly into the inner cavity.

Method for coating a glass syringe body for a hypodermic pre-filled glass syringe, wherein at least one emulsion and/or one solution containing at least one layer-forming substance is applied to at least one inner surface of the hypodermic pre-filled glass syringe, which defines an axial direction, wherein at least a partial surface of the inner surface in a syringe cone of the pre-filled glass syringe is subsequently exposed to a plasma, wherein a negative pressure source is arranged in relation to the syringe cone in the axial direction opposite the atmospheric-pressure plasma source, wherein a negative pressure of less than atmospheric pressure is provided by means of the negative pressure source.

A catheter assembly includes a flexible catheter (22), a needle (12) having a sharp distal tip, the needle (12) disposed in the flexible catheter (22) and moving from a first position that exposes the needle (12) to a second position, an outer member (26) that is configured to engage and disengage a catheter hub (14), an inner member (28) disposed in the outer member (26), and a needle protection (30) member disposed in the inner member (28), the needle protection member (30) enclosing at least a portion of the needle (12) when the needle (12) is in the second position.

Systems, devices, and techniques are disclosed for administering and tracking medicine to patients and providing health management capabilities for patients and caregivers. In some aspects, a system includes an injection pen device including a dose setting mechanism, a dispensing mechanism, and an electronics unit to generate dose data associated with a dispensing event of a dose of the medicine dispensed from the injection pen device and time data associated with the dispensing event; a mobile device in wireless communication to receive and process the dose data; and a software application configured to determine a recommended dose based on health data and contextual data associated with a user of the injection pen device, the software application including a learning dose calculator module to adaptively calculate the recommended dose of the medicine based on time-relevant and circumstances-relevant data specific to the user of the injection pen device.

The disclosure relates to a cartridge assembly for a drug delivery device, the cartridge assembly comprising a cartridge containing a drug; a cartridge holder, the cartridge holder defining an interior cartridge holding section, where the cartridge is arranged within the cartridge holding section, wherein the cartridge holder comprises a distal region with a needle connector arranged at a distal end of the distal region and a main body region; a fixing feature which is arranged at the distal region; and a region with reduced mechanical stiffness compared to the stiffness of the main body region, the region with reduced mechanical stiffness being integrated into the distal region and arranged between the needle connector and the fixing feature, such that when the cartridge is moved in a proximal direction, an emerging load is transferred from the cartridge to the fixing feature and to the main body region in the proximal direction.

Disclosed is a Huber needle assembly that may include an upper body connected to a lower body, the assembly being structured to retain a needle for insertion/extraction of the needle into/from an insertion site. The upper body can statically retain the needle while the lower body may slidably receive the needle. The lower body can further include a catch that engages a tip of the needle and/or misaligns the tip of the needle with a needle aperture of the lower body to place the assembly in a safety-lock position, preventing rebound, needle-stick injury, and/or any type of exposure of the needle tip to an environment outside of the lower body. The assembly can further bias the needle in a direction so as to prevent re-emergence of the needle tip after being withdrawn into the lower body.
