SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MAXIMUM INSULIN PUMP BOLUS OVERRIDE
An ambulatory infusion pump can include a maximum bolus override procedure. When a bolus amount greater than a maximum bolus amount is requested, the pump can provide an alert indicating that the amount requested exceeds the maximum bolus amount. If the user confirms the request in response to the alert, the bolus amount can be delivered to the user. The amount delivered in response to the confirmation can be a first portion of the bolus amount. A reminder can then be provided that a second portion of the bolus amount that is a remaining portion of the requested bolus amount was also requested. If a second confirmation is received in response to the alert, the second portion of the bolus amount can also delivered to the user.

TRACKING TAGS FOR VENOUS CATHETERIZATION COMPLICATIONS
A sensing system for sensing a potential complication at a venous catheter site. The system includes a sensor module for attachment at the site of the catheter. The sensor module includes a pressure sensor configured to generate pressure data representing measured pressure at the site of the catheter; a temperature sensor configured to generate temperature data representing measured temperature at the site of the catheter; and two pairs of bio impedance electrodes that generate bioelectrical signals representing bioelectrical activity at the site of venous catheter and a transmitter for transmitting the pressure, temperature data and bio impedance data. The system also includes a computing device configured to receive the response signal that includes the generated pressure, temperature and bio impedance data; and transmit the pressure temperature and bio impedance data to a user device for comparing the generated pressure temperature bio impedance data to threshold values indicative of intravenous complications.
IMPLANTABLE MANUALLY-CONTROLLABLE DRUG DELIVERY APPARATUS
The present disclosure relates to an implantable drug delivery device including a manual control actuator that allows a patient to self-administer a fixed amount of a drug at a desired time. By controlling a drug level, the volume inside a drug chamber, the number of actuations, and the like, a device of the present disclosure allows a drug to be precisely controlled and delivered from the outside after the device is implanted in vivo, and thus it is convenient to control a drug administration schedule. Also, since a battery is not required, and internal control devices for electromagnetic control become unnecessary, it is more patient-friendly and economically feasible.

ISOVOLUMETRIC PUMP AND SYSTEMS AND METHODS THEREOF
The disclosure provides for an isovolumetric pump system for the removal of a thrombus and a method of use thereof. The isovolumetric pump system includes at least one inflow container connected to an output of the treatment region, at least one outflow container connected to an input of the treatment region, and a drawbar connecting the inflow container and the outflow container. As the drawbar is drawn back, the same quantity of fluid is drawn from the treatment region into the inflow container and injected into the treatment region from the outflow container.
Dual lumen IV administration set
A dual lumen IV administration set includes a first lumen having an inner diameter of a first value. A second lumen is paired with the first lumen, and the second lumen has an inner diameter of a second value that is greater than the first value. A flow merger merges flow output from a distal end of the first lumen and flow output from a distal end of the second lumen to form a single flow output in an exit lumen. An injection port intersects the first lumen, thereby providing injection access to flow therethrough, prior to merging with the flow output of the second lumen.
System and method for controlling administration of medical fluid
A pump device includes a pump driver comprising a first diaphragm and a second diaphragm, the first and second diaphragms each comprising a middle portion bounded by an outer portion, the first and second diaphragms being spatially separated from each other at the respective outer portions, and coupled together at the respective middle portions. The pump also includes a fluid passageway and a pump chamber fluidly connected to the fluid passageway, wherein the pump chamber comprises a moveable wall coupled to the pump driver at the middle portions of the first and second diaphragms such that a fluid movement between the pump chamber and the fluid passageway is induced by movement of the middle portions. An input device is configured to obtain a target flow rate. A controller is configured to operate the pump driver and a flow regulator based on signals received from a flow detector.
Application device for a fluid delivery apparatus and method of use
An application device for a fluid delivery includes a housing having a bore extending from a bottom of the housing. The bore is sized and shaped for receiving at least a portion of the fluid delivery apparatus. The application device also includes an impact component for impacting the fluid delivery apparatus and moving at least a portion of the fluid delivery apparatus towards a user's skin. The application device includes a safety arm that is positionable relative to the impact component between a locked configuration in which the impact component is secured in a safety position, and a released configuration in which the impact component is free to move within the housing for impacting the fluid delivery apparatus.
DEVICE FOR DISPENSING A FLUID PRODUCT
Fluid dispensing device, having a pump connected to a reservoir and to a head. A piston (22) is connected to a piston rod (25) and provided with a push-button (26) to actuate the pump. A spring (27) brings the piston to the rest position after actuation. The body has a T-like connection (24), with a first branch connected to the metering chamber, a second branch connected to the reservoir and a third branch is connected to the head. A first valve (41) is provided in the second branch and a second valve (51) in the third branch, the valves are urged against the first and second respective valve seats (43, 53). The device has dose a adjustment (28, 29) cooperating with the piston rod and has a bush (29) coaxially around the piston rod movable to adjust the rest position of the piston.
