In some embodiments, a reconstitution or medicinal fluid delivery device includes a transfer engine including two fluidly connected spikes, each configured to pierce a container. A check valve may be disposed between the two spikes to allow unidirectional flow from one container to the other. Physical access to a fluid outlet may be obstructed by a housing until the reconstitution or medicinal fluid delivery device is actuated, whereupon physical access to the fluid outlet is permitted. The reconstitution or medicinal fluid delivery device may be placed on a flat surface and actuated with force applied in a single direction toward the flat surface.

A hollow-needle assembly is part of a transfer apparatus that serves for transferring a liquid between a storage container and a further use container. The hollow-needle assembly has a hollow needle having a pointed needle end. A liquid duct for transporting liquid through the hollow needle and out of the latter leads out via at least one liquid-duct opening in the region of the free needle end. An aeration gas duct that likewise leads out via a gas-duct opening in the region of the free needle end serves for transporting gas through the hollow-needle assembly. Duct paths of the at least one liquid duct and of the at least one aeration gas duct extend separately from one another. The ducts lead out adjacently to one another axially along the hollow needle and in a manner offset from one another in the circumferential direction. A needle separating edge that extends in the longitudinal direction of the hollow needle extends between in each case one liquid-duct opening and an adjacent gas-duct opening in the circumferential direction. This results in reliable ventilation and venting of the storage container via the hollow needle when liquid is transferred.

A device is provided for pooling a fluid from a container unit having at least one container, and includes an inlet port having at least one inlet channel configured for receiving the fluid or ambient air, and an outlet port having at least one outlet channel configured for delivering the fluid to an attachment. Both inlet and outlet ports are disposed on the device. A cavity is provided for accommodating insertion of the container unit for pooling the fluid from the at least one container. At least one spike is disposed in the cavity and configured for puncturing a stopper of the at least one container when the container unit transitions from an upper position to a lower position.

An adaptor including a hub and a connector, the hub having an exterior surface and an interior surface, the interior surface defining a first cavity; and the connector including: a noose and at least one slider coupled to the noose, the slider being configured to engage the exterior surface such that the noose is received by the first cavity.

A transfer device for transferring a medical fluid from a vial to a medical fluid injection device includes a vial holder where a vial spike positioned within the vial holder is configured to enter a vial containing a medical fluid when the vial is inserted into the vial holder. An expansion chamber having an interior cavity is in fluid communication with the vial spike. A pressurized gas cartridge is positioned with the interior cavity of the expansion chamber, while a puncture tip is configured to puncture the pressurized gas cartridge when actuated by a user. The vial spike is also configured to be in fluid communication with an injection device attached to the transfer device.

Fluid transfer systems are disclosed that can be configured to transfer precise amounts of fluid from a source container to a target container. The fluid transfer system can have multiple fluid transfer stations for transferring fluids into multiple target containers or for combining different types of fluids into a single target container to form a mixture. The fluid transfer system can include a pump and a destination sensor, such as a weight sensor. The fluid transfer system can be configured to flush remaining fluid out of a connector to reduce waste, using air or a flushing fluid.

Dual vial adapter assemblages similar to U.S. Pat. No. 6,558,365 to Zinger et al. and U.S. Pat. No. 8,752,598 to Denenburg et al. and including a quick release drug vial adapter with an upright finger grip extension pair oppositely for manually urging inwards towards one another for releasing same from a drug vial. The quick release drug vial adapter ensures correct usage of a dual vial adapter assemblage by preventing immediate removal of a drug vial adapter from a drug vial after forming a liquid drug therein thereby assisting a healthcare provider to follow an administration protocol requiring an initial aspiration of some liquid drug for immediate administration purposes to a patient prior to subsequent infusion of the liquid drug remainder.

The system can include a multi-lumen chamber can removably connected to and in fluid communication with a proximal end of a mixing lumen and include a first lumen aligned with a second lumen. The first lumen can be configured to include a first constituent in a first cavity. A first plunger can be internally positioned within the first lumen to control flow of the first constituent from the first cavity into the mixing lumen. The first cavity can terminate in a first port in fluid communication with the proximal end of the mixing lumen. The second lumen can be configured to include a second constituent. A second plunger can be internally positioned within the second lumen. The second lumen can terminate in a second port adjacent the first port and in fluid communication with the proximal end of the mixing lumen.

An apparatus for transferring a chosen quantity of medication from a vial to a container under sterile conditions is described. The present invention further facilitates dissolving solid medications contained in the vial or diluting concentrated medications contained in the vial, and transferring the resulting solutions to the container. The container may be an intravenous infuser.

A preassembled medicine mixer comprises a rotary sleeve (4), a guide sleeve I (3), a guide sleeve II (6), a guide part, a dosing barrel (1), and a dosing double needle (2). The guide sleeve I (3) extends into the guide sleeve II (6) and is connected to the rotary sleeve (4). A guide groove (8) is provided on the side wall of the guide sleeve I (3), and two ends of the guide groove (8) are extended by a distance towards opposite directions. A guide spiral groove (7) is provided on an inner wall of the guide sleeve II (6). The guide part is disposed in the guide sleeve I (3) and has a guide block (9) at the outer side thereof. The guide block (9) penetrates through the guide groove (8) and extends into the guide spiral groove (7). In use, the rotary sleeve (4) is rotated to drive the guide part to rapidly move downwards and push a medicine container (17); an upper needle tip of the dosing double needle (2) pierces a sealing plug on the medicine container (17), and a lower needle tip pierces a diaphragm (23) in an interface (22), so that the medicine container (17) is instantly communicated with an infusion container (14), thereby implementing sterile closeness during the entire process of transportation, storage, butt joint, medicine mixing, and infusion.
