PEEL-OFF PACKAGING FOR PEN NEEDLES AND SYRINGE NEEDLES
A multiple pen needle or syringe needle storage and dispensing system where a plurality of needle devices such as pen needles including a cover can be disposed on strip, where the strip serves a seal for multiple needle devices. Each needle device can be peeled off the strip unsealed for immediate use for example in an injections device, or separated from the strip sealed for later use.
Medicament packaging assembly
A medicament packaging assembly for installation in a medicament delivery device is disclosed. The packaging assembly comprises a cartridge having a medicament chamber, a sealing element for sealing a distal end of the medicament chamber, a sealing element release member, a cannula and a removable cap member. The assembly is switchable from a starting configuration in which the release member is spaced from the sealing element to an activated configuration in which the release member cooperates with the sealing element to connect the medicament chamber to the cannula. The packaging assembly further comprises a first chamber defined in part by the cap member and arranged for receiving the cannula such that at least a distal end of the cannula is sealed in the first chamber when the cap member is in place, and a second chamber defined in part by the sealing element and arranged for receiving the release member.
Drug Delivery Device with Restricted Cap Replacement
The present disclosure relates to a drug delivery device that has a housing and a cap. The drug delivery device also has a lock that prevents the cap being fully replaced on the housing after the cap has been removed.
Ophthalmic device
An ophthalmic device including a cannula having a cannula distal end, a lumen, and one or more orifices coupled to the lumen is provided. The cannula is configured to deliver a fluid. A sleeve is disposed around the cannula and has a sleeve distal end. A handle is coupled to the sleeve and the cannula, the handle having an actuator. An internal mechanism is coupled to the actuator and configured to retract the sleeve relative to the cannula. The internal mechanism includes a follower fixedly coupled to the sleeve and moveable between distal and proximal positions, and a release member movable between an activated position and a release position. The release member is coupled to the actuator and configured to release a force that urges the follower from the distal position to the proximal position when the release member moves from the activated position to the release position.
INJECTOR SYSTEM
An injector including at least one fluid reservoir having a needle, a surface attached to skin and coupled to the fluid reservoir by at least a first joint and a second joint at least a portion of one of the joints being slidable or having interlocking arms. At least a portion of a path of translation of a slidable portion of the first joint and a portion of a path of translation of the second joint are angled in respect to each another.
DRUG DELIVERY DEVICE WITH RETAINING MEMBER
A drug delivery device is provided for delivering a drug to a target tissue site. The drug delivery device comprises a body comprising a proximal end and a distal end and a chamber disposed therebetween. An upper portion is disposed about the proximal end of the body. A retaining member is disposed within a wall of the body and engageable with the chamber and a plunger is configured for disposal within the upper portion and the chamber. The upper portion is movable about the proximal end of the body to open the chamber such that the plunger is disposed within a passageway defined within the chamber, and movement of the plunger in a distal direction pushes the retaining member such that the drug moves out of the body. Methods are also disclosed.
Component for an injection device, system, and method
A component for an injection device is a combined needle shield and cap component that comprises a unitary compressible body moulded from rubber. The unitary compressible body has formed therein a cavity for shielding a needle, the cavity having an opening at a first end of the component and extending axially within the component. It also has formed thereon a grip arrangement comprising one or more shape features that permit gripping by a user of the component so as to facilitate the application of force by the user along the longitudinal axis of the component. The combined needle shield and cap component has a proximal end configured to be partly insertable into a body of an injection device. The outer surface of the compressible body has a step profile at a location between the proximal end of the compressible body, which is configured to be inserted into the injection device, and an adjacent part of the compressible body, which is configured to remain outside of injection device, wherein the proximal end of the compressible body has a smaller diameter than the adjacent part of the compressible body.
Patch injector with slidable joint
An injector including at least one fluid reservoir having a needle, a surface attached to skin and coupled to the fluid reservoir by at least a first joint and a second joint at least a portion of one of the joints being slidable or having interlocking arms. At least a portion of a path of translation of a slidable portion of the first joint and a portion of a path of translation of the second joint are angled in respect to each another.
Bent fluid path add on to a prefilled fluid reservoir
An add-on for a self-injector including an adaptor and a bent fluid path is provided. The adaptor includes at least one coupling sized and shaped to couple the adaptor to a fluid reservoir. The bent fluid path is configured at a first end to penetrate tissue and coupled at a second end to the adaptor. The add-on coupled to the fluid reservoir forms an integral self-injector cartridge unit configured to be sterilized and filled with an injectable. The adaptor is configured to couple to a self-injector at least one of a plurality of reservoirs having different sizes and tip types.
Collapsible Syringe Barrel Disinfection Cap
Flush syringe assemblies are described herein. Such flush syringe assembly may include a collapsible syringe barrel including a corrugated side wall defining a chamber, a closed proximal end, a distal end having a distal wall with an elongate tip extending distally therefrom having a passageway therethrough in fluid communication with said chamber, a pre-selected amount of sterile fluid in the chamber, and a locking element. A collar may be disposed on the distal wall of the barrel and surrounding the elongate tip. An absorbent material and disinfectant or antimicrobial agent may be disposed in a compartment of the collar.
