Medical device having a housing with a door that transmits optical signals A medical device (1; 1′) comprises: a housing (10), a signal source (11) arranged at a section (100) of the housing (10), a control device (12) for controlling the emission of an optical signal by the signal source (11) in dependence of an operation of the medical device (1; 1′), and a door (13; 13) movably connected to the housing (10), wherein the section (100) of the housing (10) is covered by the door (13; 13) in a closed state of the door (12), and exposed in an open state of the door (13; 13′), the door (13; 13) comprising an optical device (14) adapted to transmit at least partially the optical signal through the door (13; 13′) when the door (13; 13) is in the closed state, such that the optical signal of the signal source (11) can be seen by an operator both when the door (13; 13′) is in the closed state and when the door (13; 13′) is the open state.

The present disclosure provides systems and methods for managing blood glucose in a subject. An insulin delivery cannula may comprise a hollow tube comprising proximal and distal ends, the proximal end in fluid communication with an insulin source, and the distal end configured to deliver insulin into a subcutaneous space. An insulin infusion pump may be fluidically coupled to the proximal end, and attached to the insulin delivery cannula directly or via an intervening tube. The glucose sensor and the insulin delivery cannula may be configured to be inserted into the subcutaneous space simultaneously by a single insertion device. A lumen of the insulin delivery cannula may be contiguous with a lumen of tubing from the insulin infusion pump. Electrical conductors for the electrodes may be disposed on a wall of the tubing or attached to a surface of the tubing, and establish an electrical connection with an electronic module.

A syringe includes a barrel extending along a longitudinal axis between opposite proximal and distal ends. The barrel includes a proximal inner surface and a distal inner surface. The proximal inner surface defines a proximal chamber and the distal inner surface defines a distal chamber. The barrel includes first teeth extending from the proximal inner surface. A piston includes a body having opposite proximal and distal sections. The piston includes second teeth extending from an outer surface of the proximal section. The second teeth directly engage the first teeth to allow the piston to translate distally relative to the barrel along the longitudinal axis and prevent the piston from translating proximally relative to the barrel along the longitudinal axis. Systems, kits and methods are disclosed.

An implant injection device includes an injection needle, a receiver housing receiving at least a first implant and a second implant, an injection mechanism, including a pushing rod arranged upstream from the implants and configured to push the implants through the injection needle between an initial position and a final position in which the implants are injected, a pushing device for pushing on the pushing rod, configured to exert a force to move the pushing rod from the initial position to the final position, an intermediate stop device holding the pushing rod in an intermediate position and opposing the force exerted by the pushing device when a stroke of the pushing rod reaches a predetermined distance corresponding to a length of injection of the first implant, and an actuator for actuation by a user, configured to release the pushing rod from the intermediate position to the final position.

An auto-injector includes a chassis and a carrier subassembly. The carrier subassembly includes a carrier arranged inside a case, a drive spring, a plunger comprising a ramp member, the plunger configured to be pushed in a proximal direction by the drive spring, and a ramp attached to the carrier, wherein the ramp member on the plunger in an initial state is locked to the ramp on the carrier to form a ramped engagement to the carrier, the plunger prevented from rotating out of the ramped engagement depending on a relative longitudinal position of the carrier relative to the chassis, wherein the plunger is arranged to be released and to rotate out of the ramped engagement upon the carrier translating a pre-defined distance in a proximal direction relative to the chassis.

The present invention relates to a medicament delivery device comprising a housing, a biased medicament delivery member guard arranged movable in relation to the housing from a proximally extended position to a retracted position, a power pack comprising a plunger rod and a force element arranged to act on said plunger rod, which power pack is actuated by a release clip movable in relation to the housing and arranged to said plunger rod for releasably holding said plunger rod with the force element in a tensioned state; a rotator rotatably arranged inside said housing, which rotator is arranged with a guide element and a medicament delivery member guard lock element on its outer surface, wherein said medicament delivery member guard is arranged with release clip activation elements operably arranged to act on said release clip for releasing said plunger rod, and wherein said medicament delivery member guard is further arranged with a rotator activator element arranged to cooperate with said guide element for turning said rotator, upon movement of said medicament delivery member guard to the retracted position, and wherein, upon movement of said medicament delivery member guard back to the extended position, said rotator activator element will engage said medicament delivery member guard lock element and lock said medicament delivery member guard in a shielding position after removal of said medicament delivery device from a medicament delivery site.

A safety needle has a needle base, a puncture needle, and a safety cap. The puncture needle is inserted into a front end of a needle connection segment of the needle base. The safety cap is combined with a front end of the needle base. The safety cap has a needle cap and a resilient member mounted in the needle base. The needle cap is mounted around the puncture needle. Guiding blocks formed on the rear end of the needle cap are mounted respectively in positioning recesses in a housing of the needle base. The needle cap and an outer cap are mounted around the puncture needle, and the puncture needle can be kept from exposure. The needle cap can be locked with the positioning recesses, and the safety needle cannot be reused and can be distinguished as a used needle.
