An apparatus includes a transfer adapter, a puncture member, a disinfection member, and a fluid reservoir. The transfer adapter has a proximal end portion and a distal end portion, and defines an inner volume configured to receive the puncture member. The transfer adapter is coupled to the disinfection member. The distal end portion of the transfer adapter includes a port fluidically coupled to the puncture member and configured to be placed in fluid communication with a bodily-fluid of a patient. The proximal end portion is configured to receive a portion of the fluid reservoir to allow the fluid reservoir to be moved within the inner volume between a first position, in which a surface of the fluid reservoir is placed in contact with the disinfection member, and a second position, in which the puncture member punctures the surface to place the puncture member in fluid communication with the fluid reservoir.

A valving arrangement is provided herein for regulating fluidics of modules usable in a combinatorial drug delivery device. The valving includes a slidable piston valve, adjustable to selectively seal an outlet path from a drug vial and a sealing port, in parallel to a vent, for selectively sealing an inlet path to the drug vial. Advantageously, the subject invention allows for applied negative pressure to adjust the valving to allow flow between serially-connected modules forming a drug delivery device.

A medicament filling system (30) provides medicament to a delivery device (20). The medicament filling system (30) comprises a main housing (40) having an air pump (42), a vial adapter (44) that is configured to engage a vial (10) containing medicament, the vial adapter (44) being in communication with the air pump (42), a syringe housing (46) that carries a syringe (70), the syringe housing (46) being in selective communication with the vial adapter (44) and the delivery device (20), and a valve (60) that locks and unlocks movement of a plunger (72) in the syringe (70).

A filling aid. The filling aid includes a locking portion including a groove feature; and a locking feature having a locked and an unlocked position; and a filling syringe holder slidably attached to the locking portion, the filling syringe holder including a filling needle cradle portion having a tongue feature; and a needle housing portion comprising at least one tab having a starting position and a filling position, wherein the groove feature configured to accommodate the tongue feature, and wherein the locking feature interact with the filling syringe holder wherein when the locking feature moves from the locked position to the unlocked position the needle housing portion moves from the starting position to the filling position.

An injection apparatus and related methods. The injection apparatus includes a housing with a proximate end and a distal end. The housing further defines a fluid pathway. A defeatable seal is fixedly positioned within the fluid pathway to separate an internal volume of the housing into a first compartment and a second compartment downstream from the first compartment. The defeatable seal is configured to fail in response to an increase in fluid pressure within the first compartment, allowing a fluid in the first compartment to pass through the second compartment and through the fluid outlet.

A medicinal vial reconstitution and IV dispensing device includes a bifurcated receptacle adapted to engage a medicinal vial, and a valve or barrier for selectively opening and closing the medicinal vial from fluidic communication with the patient IV line. The reconstitution device mixes medication with saline solution from an IV bag through a dedicated channel. The reconstitution device receives a medication vial containing the powdered medication. The reconstituted medication is then passed back into the IV bag for uniform mixing. A flow control element ensures fluid flow only from the vial to the bag. Once mixed, the reconstituted medication achieves a desired concentration in the IV bag. The (now medicated) saline solution in the IV bag is dispensed back through the reconstitution device via an IV line to the patient, and the flow control element redirects fluid only to the IV line and prevents any backflow with the vial.

A medical device is configured to be connectable with a vial. The medical device includes a tubular body and an adapter. The tubular body defines a container for containing a composition, and has a spike located at a distal end thereof. The spike has at least one through hole in fluid communication with the container. The adapter is formed with or coupled to the body, and is located at or about the spike.

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.

In one aspect, a combinatorial drug delivery device is provided for delivering a predetermined selection of drug components. The device includes a plurality of modules, each including: a body having an interior volume; a spike plate movably disposed in the interior volume, the spike plate having a protruding cannula and first and second ports. The device also includes a base tray which includes: a framework defining a plurality of wells, each of the wells formed to insertingly receive one of the modules; for each of the wells, first and second inlet ports formed to interface with the first and second ports of the module being received in the respective well; passageways to connect certain wells with adjacent wells to permit fluid flow therebetween. For each of the wells, the spike plate of the respective module being maintained in a stationary position with the module being inserted into the well.

A reconstitution device includes a body, a first piercing member located at a first end of the body, and a receptacle located at the second end of the body. The receptacle includes a collar configured to engage a vial, and a cap extending from the collar and holding a second piercing member. The second piercing member is disposed within the collar. The reconstitution device includes a first fluid pathway formed within and extending from the first piercing member to the second piercing member. The reconstitution device includes a second fluid pathway formed within and extending from the second piercing member to a portion of the body between the first piercing member and the second piercing member.
