A medicine container for medicine substances which can be mixed with one another includes a container body, a stopper and a mixing element. The container body has a first end with a stopper opening and a second end with a base having an outlet. The stopper is displaceable between the ends. A mixing chamber for receiving the medicine substances is delimited by a portion of an inner casing surface of the container body, a side of the stopper and the base. The mixing element can be disposed in the mixing chamber. The medicine container is adapted to discharge the medicine substances from the medicine container by displacement of the stopper in the direction of the outlet. The stopper is adapted to receive the mixing element at least partially by a recess. The invention further relates to a method for operating such a medicine container.

A device for mixing and dispensing bone material is provided. The device comprises a tubular member having an interior surface configured to receive bone material and a fluid to mix the bone material disposed within the tubular member. The tubular member is flexible and has a proximal opening configured to slidably receive a plunger, and a distal opening configured to dispense a mixed bone material from the interior surface of the tubular member. The plunger is less flexible than the tubular member. Methods of mixing and dispensing bone material are also provided.

Disclosed herein is a system for creating an injectable and flowable cold slurry, the system comprising a housing; a mount operatively connected to the housing configured to accept a container; a first motor configured to move the mount from a first position to a second position; a second motor; and a drive shaft in communication with the second motor, wherein the drive shaft is configured to rotate to cause an internal volume of the container to be transformed into the injectable and flowable cold slurry.

A method for controlling fluid ratio accuracy during a dual flow injection with a powered injection system is described. The method includes predicting a first capacitance volume of a first syringe comprising a first medical fluid and a second capacitance volume of a second syringe comprising a second medical fluid with a first capacitance correction factor and a second capacitance correction factor, respectively, selecting a ratio of the first medical fluid and the second medical fluid to be administered to a patient in the dual flow injection, determining a relative acceleration ratio of a first piston of the first syringe and a second piston of a second syringe based on the predicted first capacitance volume and the predicted second capacitance volume, wherein the relative acceleration ratio is selected to maintain the selected ratio of the first medical fluid and the second medical fluid during the dual flow injection, and injecting a mixture of a first medical fluid and a second medical fluid having the selected ratio with the powered injection system.

The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for mixing and injecting fluid treatment, such as cement to treat bone or hard tissue. In some embodiments, a mixing apparatus may facilitate mixing within a syringe. Additionally, the syringe may be configured to extract bone cement from a cement mixer. A syringe for mixing and injecting cement may include a detachable handle that may be detached after extracting bone cement from a mixer to facilitate coupling to a high-pressure syringe for injection.

One aspect relates to a method of producing a bone cement from at least two starting components in a device comprising a first hollow cylinder-shaped container and a second hollow cylinder-shaped container, a vessel arranged in the first container, whereby a monomer liquid is stored in the vessel. The aspect also relates to a device for providing a bone cement from two starting components, comprising a hollow cylinder-shaped first container, in which a vessel for a monomer liquid as first starting component can be stored, a hollow cylinder-shaped second container comprising a first internal space, in which a bone cement powder as second starting component can be stored, and a second internal space into which the monomer liquid can be conveyed, a fluid-conducting conveying means arranged between the first internal space and the second internal space, whereby the first container and the second container are axially connected to each other.

A re-mixing dispenser for containing and dispensing a liquid. The dispenser may have one or more tubes, each containing a different liquid. At least one of the liquids may be re-mixed in situ, using a special two-piece plunger and plunger rod. A mixing piece of the two-piece plunger is moveable independently of a top piece and has blades that allow it to move through the liquid. A plunger rod is removably attached to the mixing piece and is operable to move the mixing piece up and down within the tube during mixing. The two plunger pieces are joined and moved as a single plunger during dispensing.

A mixing and dispensing container for mixing and dispensing dental materials. The mixing and dispensing container includes: a plunger; an open-ended liquid receptacle adapted to receive the plunger; and a main body with a proximal end, a distal end, a chamber open at the proximal end and an aperture in the distal end. The chamber is adapted to receive the liquid receptacle. The dental capsule mixes various components of the dental materials and forms a dental paste for dispensing. The container is especially envisaged for use in mixing of components to provide a paste for dental use.

A device for mixing a medical agent and associated systems and methods are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, the device comprises (i) a housing defining a chamber configured to contain a fluid and having a longitudinal axis, (ii) a plunger assembly at least partially disposed within the chamber, the plunger assembly comprising a plunger and a stirring member extending along the longitudinal axis, and (iii) an actuating assembly operably coupled to the stirring member. The actuating assembly can have an active state in which the actuating assembly causes a distal end portion of the stirring member to rotate at a predetermined speed.

One aspect relates to a device for mixing a polymethyl methacrylate bone cement formed of two starting components and for storing the starting components of the bone cement. The device has a tubular cartridge with a cylindrical interior. A powder is contained in a front of the cartridge and a container containing a monomer liquid is arranged in a rear of the cartridge. A discharge piston is arranged between the container and the powder, and a conveying piston is on the side of the container opposite the discharge piston. The discharge piston and the conveying piston are arranged in the interior of the cartridge movably in the longitudinal direction. A conduit is provided that connects the front part and the rear part of the interior of the cartridge to one another in a manner permeable for the monomer liquid and for gases and which is impermeable for the powder.
