Abstract: An infusion pump system. The system includes a reusable housing assembly, a disposable housing assembly, a tab portion comprising a female latching feature, and an exit, the exit connected to a reservoir; and a fluid connector including a body portion including a slot, a plug portion slidably connected to the body portion, the plug portion including a fluid path and a disc, the disc configured to seat within the slot, a catch feature located on a first end of the body portion and configured to interact with the disposable housing assembly, a male latching feature located on a second end of the body portion, the male latching feature configured to interact and lock onto the female latching feature, wherein force applied to the plug portion may overcome a threshold force and unseat the disc from the slot wherein the plug portion moves with respect to the body portion.

Abstract: A disposable safety needle assembly and safety enclosure for internally shielding a used or contaminated needle includes a needle assembly having a needle cannula slidably disposed within a safety enclosure. An angular orientation to the needle within the enclosure maintains an insertion angle allowing the safety enclosure to remain substantially flush with a dermal surface during and while the needle is inserted. The safety enclosure also includes an internally disposed flexible safety member. The flexible safety member has face portion transversely situated and having a safety feature disposed to the needle and that slides thereon. Retracting the needle within the safety enclosure to a point wherein the sharp tip of the needle is beyond the needle protection section of the flexible member causes the protection section to travel transversely to the direction of motion of the needle. As a result, the safety feature receives the sharp tip of the needle.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for a medical treatment of a sclera, the device (100) comprising a curved disc or a belt (102), wherein the disc/belt is configured to be placed into the Tenon's space; the disc/belt is formed such that the inner surface of the curved disc/belt is superficially contactable to the surface of an area of the sclera so as to superficially cover said area; and the disc/belt comprises one, two, three, four, or more independent channel systems (101).

Abstract: An insertion device for use in assisting with the placement of a medical device within the body of a patient is disclosed. For example, the insertion device can be employed to assist with the placement of an introducer, which provides a conduit for insertion of a catheter into the body. In one embodiment, the insertion device comprises a needle that is removably disposed within a bore defined by the medical device, and a needle retraction assembly. The needle retraction assembly can position the needle in any one of a first position wherein a distal tip of the needle is disposed a predetermined distance distal to a distal end of the medical device, a second position wherein the needle distal tip is disposed distal but proximate to the distal end of the medical device, and a third position wherein the needle distal tip is retracted within the medical device bore.

Abstract: A nozzle unit for cross-linking of eye tissue is disclosed. The nozzle unit comprises a dosing device for providing a predefined dose of a photosensitizer, a pressure-generating device for generating a pressure in the dosing device, and an outlet nozzle for discharging the dose of the photosensitizer, in a puff-type manner and in the form of at least one stream or stream bundle, through an outlet opening of the outlet nozzle.

Abstract: There is provided an IV flow regulator including a first part integrated with a flow control slit, the flow control slit being along a fluid path; a second part integrated with a central stem, the central stem including a spiral surface configured to contact the flow control slit, an area of contact defined by the spiral surface and the flow control slit being shaped substantially like an orifice to enable flow along the fluid path; and a dead space chamfer included in the second part at a portion of the fluid path subsequent to the area of contact.

Abstract: A medicament delivery device includes a distal housing part; a proximal housing part for a container; a drive mechanism in the distal housing part that includes a plunger rod; and an auto mixing mechanism. The housing parts are movable from a first position, in which the housing parts are partially extended relative to each other, to a second position, in which the housing parts are partially retracted relative to each other. The auto mixing mechanism is configured to hold the housing parts in the first position and to lock the housing parts in the second position, and includes a mixing force member operably arranged between the housing parts such that manual activation of the auto mixing mechanism enables the mixing force member to cause the housing parts to move from the first position to the second position. The plunger rod acts to mixing a medicament in the container.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a spring-loaded medical injection device for automatically ejecting set doses of a drug having an injection button (10). The injection device comprises a housing having a dose setting member (20) for straining an injection spring when setting the size of the dose to be injected and a release element (30) for releasing the strained injection spring to eject the set dose. The injection button (10) is movable in a distal direction against the bias of a return spring (1) and movable in a proximal direction by the force of the return spring (1). Further, the injection button (10) moves with it the release element from a first position to a second position.

Abstract: The present relates to a filter needle coupled between a fixation member having a needle for injecting a medical fluid after filtering foreign substances contained in the medical fluid and a disposable syringe, the filter needle includes an outer housing having a front end portion to which the fixation member is coupled and a rear end portion to which the disposable syringe is coupled and a filtering unit which is disposed inside the outer housing, and in which a medical fluid supplied from the fixation member to the disposable syringe is passed through as is, while a medical fluid supplied from the disposable syringe to the fixation member is filtered.

Abstract: A device for giving injections has a housing having a lower surface and an upper surface with a passage through the housing extending between the upper and lower surfaces. A DC motor with an eccentric fixed to the motor is located inside the housing to vibrate the housing. At least one tubular insert is located in the passage through the housing and is fixed to the housing. A syringe receiver is located inside and fixed to the at least one tubular insert. The syringe receiver contains a foam insert defining a space for receiving a syringe. The foam insert is a polyurethane foam characterized by an indentation force deflection of about 25% at 127 N and about 65% at 256N. The foam insert isolates a syringe from the vibrating of the housing.
