A package comprising a container for holding a first substance, and a product insert for holding a second substance, at least partially inserted info said container, and where the first product and the second product can be allowed to merge by external manipulation of said package. Packaged products and methods are also provided.

To prevent accidental needle stick injuries, a syringe has a plunger configured to pull the syringe into the syringe barrel after clinical use. The syringe has an additional safety feature that restricts subsequent movement of the plunger. After the needle has been retracted in its entirety within the barrel of the syringe, movement of the plunger is restricted by a two-part locking mechanism, a notch on the plunger and a T-shaped slot on the barrel with a one-way catch section to prevent the needle tip from being pushed accidentally through the barrel wall.

A syringe provided with a body, a piston capable of sliding in the body, and an injection device comprising a needle oriented along a longitudinal axis and a casing removably secured to the body and carrying said needle. The casing comprising a plurality of flexible tabs, each provided with a stop. The piston comprising a docking system having a housing comprising a flange configured to hold the stops of the flexible tabs in the housing in an insertion position in which the tabs are inserted into the housing, the plurality of tabs in opposing areas around the longitudinal axis. The flange comprising bearing areas configured to be in contact with corresponding tabs in the insertion position. The tabs are configured to exert an elastic pressure on corresponding bearing areas in the insertion position, and the bearing areas are dissymmetrical relative to the longitudinal axis.

A safe syringe includes a barrel, a needle seat and a plunger, wherein the needle seat has a hook rod, a linkage deformation portion and a barrel clamping portion; and the plunger has a rod body, and a hook insertion hole which can be sleeved with the hook rod of the needle seat and compress the linkage deformation portion for elastic deformation such that the barrel clamping portion of the needle seat is not clamped into the seat clamping slot of the barrel, and the hook insertion hole can hook the hook rod of the needle seat to move the needle seat. The safe syringe can allow stable positioning and quick pullback of the needle seat and effectively reduce liquid medicine residue.

A medical device for percutaneous or venous access for the purposes of administering a fluid to a patient or sampling from one is disclosed. The device includes a cannula holder that has a part or portion of cross-section which is reduced or different from its distal end and proximal end. The part or portion of reduced or different cross-section allows the cannula holder to deform within the body of the device when activating means are activated to separate the cannula holder from an immobilising member allowing the cannula holder to move in the body of the device and re-enter and disappear within such body of the cannula.

A fluid delivery injector comprises a syringe defining a barrel; a plunger and a hollow needle provided within the barrel adapted for linear movement parallel to a longitudinal axis with a distal tip of the needle contained within the syringe. A fluid retention reservoir is defined at least in the barrel and is in fluid communication with the needle when pressure is applied to the fluid in the reservoir and to the plunger for moving the needle out of the barrel. A spring may be provided for retracting the needle when pressure is released from the plunger.

One embodiment is directed to a safety syringe system, comprising: an off-the-shelf syringe assembly comprising a syringe body and a plunger tip; a needle assembly removably coupleable to the distal end of the syringe body such that medicinal fluid may be transferred through a retractable needle coupled to a needle housing comprising the needle assembly upon insertion of the plunger tip relative to the syringe body; and a plunger control assembly coupled to the plunger tip and configured to facilitate manual insertion of the plunger tip relative to the syringe body; wherein upon insertion of the plunger tip to a final insertion state and release of an associated manual insertion load, the plunger tip may be proximally withdrawn, pulling the retractable needle proximally relative to the needle housing to a safe locked and retracted state wherein it is no longer exposed for injection.

A syringe includes a hollow body, a piston and a seal. The hollow body has a surrounding hollow body surface and forms a passage therein. An axis is formed in an axial longitudinal direction of the hollow body and the passage has a rear body opening and a front body opening arranged opposite to one another in the longitudinal direction. A first needle seat is formed at the front body opening, in which a needle cannula is arranged and relative to which the needle cannula is movable along the axis. The piston is arranged in the hollow body and is movable in the passage along the axis. The seal is able to be cancelled such that a receiving chamber and a supply space of the syringe are in flow communication in a release position.

The present invention provides a safety needle assembly 10 for use with a medical injector 11 comprising in which blocking means comprising a control member 80 slidably displaceable along a longitudinal axis of a tubular housing 20 from a set position whereat the control member 80 engages a needle mount 60 to maintain a needle 12 in an operative position before use, thereafter attachment of the safety needle assembly 10 to the medical injector 11, the use thereof and subsequent detachment of the safety needle assembly 10 from the medical injector 11, causes the control member 80 to move away from the set position and disengage from the needle mount 60 and allow spring means 70 to rotate the needle 12 to the shielding position and to move a non-patient end 15 of the needle 12 towards a distal end 22 of the tubular housing 20 whereat the needle 12 extends at an angle oblique to the longitudinal axis of the tubular housing 20 to place the non-patient end 15 of the needle 12 at a location adjacent to an interior wall 26 of the tubular housing 20.
