A drug delivery device includes a first subassembly having a cap, a needle cover, a syringe holder configured to receive a syringe assembly, a cassette body, and a lower housing shell, with the cap receiving at least a portion of the needle cover, a second subassembly, including a drive assembly configured to move a stopper of a syringe assembly, and a motor body, with the motor body receiving at least a portion of the drive assembly and the cassette body of the first subassembly configured to receive at least a portion of the motor body, and a locking clip configured to secure the first subassembly to the second subassembly upon assembly of the first subassembly to the second subassembly.

The present invention relates to an RDID tag enabled shield assembly that provides a sterile enclosure of a medicament delivery port of a medicament container. The container can be a needleless pre-filled syringe, a vial, a cartridge, or a collapsible bag or pouch. The RFID tag is fixedly attached to one or more components of the shield assembly through co-molding or another form of permanent or removable attachment. The present invention also relates to a method of tracking the life cycle of a medicament container or a medicament injection device where the RFID tag enabled shield assembly attached to the medicament container. Data is written to or read from the RFID tag during the entire life cycle of the medicament container or injection device, including assembly, packaging, storing, distribution and use.

A grasping collar is featured that has a flexible main body having an exterior surface with surface cavities configured for finger reception; a hole extending within an interior region of the body along an X-axis direction and being a through-hole relative to the body; an elongated slit extending in the X-axis direction, and in a radially inward direction from an exterior surface of the body into communication with the hole, the elongated slit including a thinner slit section extending in the X-axis direction for a portion of an overall length of the body as well as a wider slit section extending in the X-axis direction for a remaining portion of the overall length of the body. Methods of utilizing and assembling the grasping collar are also featured.

A device for transferring fluids in a closed system transfer device using flash for last drop extraction and to reduce coring. The device including a piercing member having a distal end and a proximal end and defining a longitudinal fluid channel. A first opening positioned at the distal end of the piercing member wherein the first opening is in fluid communication with the longitudinal fluid channel. A cover or flash positioned over the first opening. The cover including a pre-cut pattern wherein the cover opens along the pre-cut pattern upon application of a distally directed force from the longitudinal fluid channel. The distal end including the first opening having a steep taper to facilitate last drop extraction.

A rigid needle shield for a syringe includes a main body comprising an internal sidewall defining a bore, and an end cap attached to the main body. The end cap includes at least one frangible tab connected to the sidewall of the main body. The rigid needle shield further includes an elastomeric insert extending through the bore and engaging the end cap. The at least one frangible tab is configured to break from the internal sidewall and advance through the bore upon application of a force to the end cap.
