TRACK-INDEXED SYRINGE

The present invention relates to a finger grip (1) arranged to be connected to a syringe barrel having a plunger and a plunger rod for driving said plunger. The finger grip comprises a body having a lower side with finger supporting surfaces (13) for supporting fingers of a user during handling and an engagement member (5) being moveable between an inactive position where the engagement member is arranged not to engage with the plunger rod of the syringe barrel and an active position where the engagement member is arranged to engage with a grooved surface on the plunger rod of the syringe such that feedback is given to a user as the plunger is moved relative to the finger grip. An activation member (7) for moving the engagement member from said inactive position to said active position is built-in into the finger grip.

A PATIENT INTERFACE FORMED FROM A TEXTILE CONSTRUCTION AND INCLUDING A STIFFENED PORTION TO PROVIDE FOR CUSTOMIZATION

The invention relates to a patient interface comprising a plenum chamber, a seal-forming structure, and a positioning and stabilizing structure, as well as the method of operating the patient interface. The patient's interface is configured to leave a patient's mouth uncovered or if the seal-forming structure is configured to seal around a patient's nose and mouth, the patient interface is configured to allow the patient to breath from the ambient in an absence of the flow of pressurized. The positioning and stabilizing structure includes headgear, and the seal-forming structure and at least a portion of the headgear is formed from a one piece construction of textile material. In another embodiment, the seal-forming structure and/or the positioning and stabilizing structure includes an adaptive portion that adjusts based on usage conditions. In another embodiment, the positioning and stabilizing structure, the seal-forming structure and/or the plenum chamber includes and/or is formed of a textile material, and the textile material includes at least one magnetic thread constructed of magnetic material to provide a magnetic interaction between a first part of the patient interface and a second part of the patient interface. In another embodiment, a stiffener is coupled to the plenum chamber, the seal-forming structure, and/or the positioning and stabilizing structure. In another embodiment, at least one of the plenum chamber and the seal-forming structure includes a textile material; and wherein the textile material includes a surface structure that limits adhesion of debris. A UV cleaning receptacle of the patient interface is also disclosed.

MULTI-SENSORY, ASSISTIVE WEARABLE TECHNOLOGY, AND METHOD OF PROVIDING SENSORY RELIEF USING SAME
20230049262 · 2023-02-16 · ·

A system and method for providing sensory relief from distractibility, inattention, anxiety, fatigue, and/or sensory issues to a user in need. The user can be autistic/neurodiverse, or neurotypical. The system can be configured to connect to a datastore storing one or more sensory thresholds specific to a user of a wearable device of the system, the sensory thresholds selected from auditory, visual or physiological sensory thresholds; record, using one or more sensors of the wearable device, a sensory input stimulus to the user; compare the sensory input stimulus with the sensory thresholds to determine an intervention to be provided to the user, the intervention configured to provide the user relief from distractibility, inattention, anxiety, fatigue, or sensory issues; and provide the intervention to the user, the intervention comprising filtering, in real-time, an audio signal presented to the user or an optical signal presented to the user.

METHODS AND APPARATUSES FOR DELIVERY OF AN AGENT TO THE LUNGS AND NASAL PASSAGES
20230052806 · 2023-02-16 ·

Methods and apparatuses (e.g., systems, devices, etc.) for delivering a nebulized drug agent in the nasal passages concurrent with the lungs.

Vibratory devices for phantom limb pain

A prosthetic device includes a flexible interface configured to conform to a residual limb of a user, a prosthetic socket including an outer shell more rigid than the flexible interface and positioned external to at least a portion of the flexible interface, and one or more vibrational devices placed in connection with the flexible interface to impart vibration to the residual limb.

Drive mechanism for a medication delivery device and medication delivery device

A drive mechanism for a medication delivery device containing a resilient member and having a rotation member configured to be rotated in a first direction during setting of a dose of a medication and to be rotated in a second direction during delivery of the dose, where the rotation member is coupled to a drive member that is coupled to a piston rod such that on dose delivery the piston rod is displaced in a distal direction to dispense a medicament and where the resilient member prevents movement of the drive member and the piston rod during dose setting.

Pen needle attachment mechanisms

User-friendly attachment mechanisms for pen needles provide improved handling and ease of use, including locking installation and removal features and sensory feedback when a needle-bearing hub is seated on a pen.

Multiple use disposable injection pen

A medication injection pen, including a housing, a dose set knob (DSK) comprising an internal key, and a dose stop member engaging the dose set knob. Rotation of the dose set knob to set a medication dose causes rotation of the dose stop member with respect to the dose set knob, and when the dose set knob is rotated to a last dose setting position, the dose stop member rotationally abuts the internal key thereby preventing further rotational movement of the dose set knob in a dose setting direction.

IMPROVEMENTS IN NEEDLE-FREE DELIVERY
20230043827 · 2023-02-09 · ·

The invention concerns improvements in needle-free devices for delivery of therapeutic and/or prophylactic agents, such as solid dose drugs, including vaccines. The needle-free device disclosed herein comprises novel structural arrangements and modes of actuation and operation, resulting in enhanced functionality and benefits to the user and/or patient.

Injection device and injection solution transferring system

An injection device (10) comprises an injection solution receptacle (30) and a plunger (70) at least a portion of which is slidably received in the injection solution receptacle (30), wherein the plunger (70) is displaceable relative to the injection solution receptacle (30) in a distal direction in order to expel an injection solution contained in the injection solution receptacle (30) from the injection solution receptacle (30). A first plunger stop mechanism (140) is adapted to stop a displacement of the plunger (70) relative to the injection solution receptacle (30) in the distal direction at a first dosing position (P1). A second plunger stop mechanism (140) is adapted to stop a displacement of the plunger (70) relative to the injection solution receptacle (30) from the first dosing position (P1) in the distal direction at a second dosing position (P2), wherein the first and the second dosing position (P2) of the plunger (70) are selected in such a manner that the plunger (70), upon being displaced relative to the injection solution receptacle (30) between the first and the second dosing position (P2) is adapted to expel a desired dose of the injection solution contained in the injection solution receptacle (30) from the injection solution receptacle (30).
