A plunger has a push rod for expelling the drug depot through the cannula to a site in the patient. A kit comprises the above components. A method includes assembling the components including, selecting a ring member having indicia corresponding to one or more drug depots in the drug cartridge.

This medical container includes a barrel defining a reservoir for containing a medical product, and a needle extending in a barrel channel provided at a distal end of the barrel so as to establish a fluid communication between the reservoir and the needle. The medical container further includes a RFID on-metal (ROM) tag, said RFID on-metal tag being located at least partly inside the barrel channel and having an antenna extending along the needle.

Disclosed herein are medical instrument and medical method for localized drug delivery. The medical instrument can comprise a catheter shaft assembly, a hub coupled to the proximal end of the catheter shaft assembly, an inflatable component at the distal end of the catheter shaft assembly, a tissue penetrating member coupled to the inflatable component in an orientation transverse to the longitudinal axis of the catheter shaft assembly, and at least one protective element coupled to the inflatable component in proximity to the tissue penetrating member. The protective element can be configured to prevent any damage of the inflatable body during a placement of the medical instrument and an actuation of the inflatable component.

A mist inhaler device (200) for generating a mist including a therapeutic for inhalation by a user. The device includes a mist generator device (201) and a driver device (202). The driver device (202) is configured to drive the mist generator device (201) at an optimum frequency to maximise the efficiency of mist generation by the mist generator device (201).

An intelligent vaporizing system includes a vaporizing device having a cartridge detachably coupled with a main body, the cartridge includes: a container configured to receive a liquid; a sensor for detecting a user’s action of inhalation; and a memory chip embedded inside the cartridge and communicated with the sensor, the memory chip configured to: record collected data from the sensor; receive associated data from an application; and transfer the collected data to the application; wherein the main body includes a heating element configured to heat the liquid to form a vaporized form; and a controller configured to receive the collected data and activate the heating element for heating the liquid.

A dose monitoring system for mounting on an injection pen having a body and a dose setting wheel defined at the end of the body. The dose monitoring system includes a magnet configured to be attached to an outer surface of the dose setting wheel, a housing configured to be attached to an outer surface of the body of the injection pen, the housing includes an integrated control unit and at least one magnetometer in electrical connection with the integrated control unit, the integrated control unit, when the housing is mounted on the injection pen, being configured to register at least one magnetic field sensed by the at least one magnetometer when the magnet co-rotates with the dose setting wheel during setting of a dose by a user on the injection pen, the integrated control unit being further configured, when the housing is mounted on the injection pen, to calculate a dose set by the user of the injection pen from the at least one magnetic field registered with the integrated control unit.

Therapy gas delivery systems that provide run-time-to-empty information to a user of the system and methods for administering therapeutic gas to a patient. The therapeutic gas delivery system may include a gas pressure sensor attachable to a therapeutic gas source that communicates therapeutic gas pressure data to a therapeutic gas delivery system controller, a gas temperature sensor positioned to measure gas temperature in the therapeutic gas source that communicates therapeutic gas temperature data to the therapeutic gas delivery system controller, at least one flow controller that communicates therapeutic gas flow rate data to the therapeutic gas delivery system controller, at least one flow sensor that communicates flow rate data to the therapeutic gas delivery system controller, and at least one display that communicates run-time-to-empty to a user of the therapeutic gas delivery system. The therapeutic gas delivery system controller of the system includes a processor that executes an algorithm to calculate the run-time-to-empty from the data received from the gas pressure sensor, temperature sensor, flow controller and flow sensor, and directs the result to the display.

A medical system, usable for example in connection with a dialysis apparatus, may utilize radar waves for monitoring a patient, a medical area, or an object. The medical system includes at least one sending device for sending radar waves, and at least one receiving device for receiving reflected radar waves. The medical system further includes an evaluation unit for evaluating the reflected radar waves which have been received by the at least one receiving device, resulting in obtaining a result, and an output device for outputting the result or a signal based on the result.

The present invention relates to a shell assembly for a medicament delivery device, which shell assembly comprises at least one first shell section provided with an entry passage and designed such that at least a major part of a medicament delivery device entered through said entry passage is accommodated inside said at least one first shell section, a closure element operably arranged to said at least one first shell section for closing said entry passage, and fixation elements arranged for fixating said medicament delivery device in relation to said at least one first shell section and said closure element.
