Abstract: A monitoring device for monitoring operation of a drug delivery device and to a respective drug delivery device is presented in which a fastening member releasably attaches the monitoring device to an axially elongated housing of the drug delivery device, a sliding member is shiftable relative to the fastening member in an axial direction and being adapted to operably engage with at least one dose setting component of the drug delivery device to follow an axial displacement of the dose setting component relative to the housing component, a first sensor arrangement for detecting a rotation of the dose setting component relative to the fastening member, a second sensor arrangement for detecting an axial displacement of the sliding member relative to the fastening member, and a processing member coupled to the first and to the second sensor arrangements to process first and second signals obtainable from the first and from the second sensor arrangements for determining the size of a dose dispensed by the drug de

Abstract: Described is a needle assembly attachment and removal device comprising a case having a base and a longitudinal axis (L), a carriage axially movable with the case from a first position to a second position, a carrier rotatably coupled to the carriage and adapted to hold a needle assembly, and a gearing arrangement rotatably coupled to the carriage and adapted to rotate the carrier in a first rotational direction as the carriage moves from the first position to the second position and in a second rotational direction as the carriage moves from the second position to the first position.

Abstract: A recovery assembly for a cryopreservation device is presented having a support for mounting the recovery assembly to an access opening of a container to be at least partially filled with the cooling agent, and at least one flow channel to form at least one protective gas stream to reduce escapement of the cooling agent from the container.

Abstract: A method and system for proving a drug delivery device. The device comprises a drug delivery device housing and a medicament contained in the drug delivery device housing. A dose dial sleeve is positioned in the housing and is rotatable to set a non-inverted dose of the medicament contained in the medical delivery device. The non-inverted dose may be increased by turning the dose dial sleeve in a direction towards a user of the drug delivery device. The dose medicament may be decreased by rotating the dose dial sleeve in a direction away from the user.

Abstract: Described is a safety needle assembly comprising a drive unit holding a needle having a distal pointed end, an outer body rotatably coupled to the drive unit, a first tube telescopically coupled to the outer body and the drive unit, and a second tube telescopically coupled to the first tube. In an extended position, the second tube covers the distal pointed end of the needle, and rotation of the outer body relative to the drive unit causes the first tube and the second tube to retract and expose the distal pointed end.
