  • Publication number: 20240359034
    Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods for combining and/or delivering an injectable material to a patient. The injectable material may be formed of two or more reactive components delivered in separate chambers. Various features are provided to reduce human error in combining the reactive components in the appropriate sequence to form the injectable material, generally at (e.g., immediately prior to) the time of delivery to a patient. The system includes a sleeve lock which facilitates coupling of a device having a first chamber containing a first component with a vial having a second chamber containing a second component to combine the first and second components. The combined first and second components are contained within the first chamber for delivery to a patient via an injection system, which may be fluidly coupled with the first chamber with the assistance of the sleeve lock.

  • Publication number: 20240358593
    Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods for combining and/or delivering an injectable material to a patient. A vial adaptor is configured to fluidly couple at least a first chamber and a separate chamber and to facilitate fluid exchange therebetween as well as to vent the separate chamber as material is withdrawn therefrom. The first chamber may be defined in a multi-chamber device which further defines a second chamber. The vial adaptor further defines a purge reservoir into which excess material and/or air may be purged from the second chamber. For instance, as material is ejected from the first chamber into the separate chamber, a determined amount of material may be purged from the second chamber into the purge reservoir.

  • Publication number: 20240358238
    Abstract: A scope adapter system includes an adapter body coupled to a handle of a scope device, a rigid shaft, and a mounting mechanism removably coupled to the shaft. The shaft includes a shaft lumen which is sized and shaped to slidably receive a flexible elongated member of the device. A distal end of the lumen is sized so that, when a distal end of the member is received therein, the distal end of the member is snugly held so that an aim of the shaft aims the distal end of the member. The mechanism mounts a proximal end of the shaft to the body so that, when the body is coupled to the handle, the mechanism is mounted on the body and coupled to the shaft and the member is inserted into the lumen so that movement of the handle effects corresponding movements of the distal end of the member.

  • Publication number: 20240358924
    Abstract: Mixing systems for producing a mixture to deliver to a treatment site. An illustrative system may comprise a needle hub and a multi-reservoir system. The multi-reservoir system may comprise a first plunger assembly, a second plunger assembly, and a barrel portion. The first plunger assembly, the second plunger assembly, and the barrel portion may be assembled in a telescoping arrangement. Advancing the first plunger assembly may cause a first constituent to be delivered from a first reservoir of the second plunger assembly into the third reservoir to mix with a third constituent to form a precursor and a second constituent to be delivered from a second reservoir of the second plunger assembly into the fourth reservoir and advancing the first and second plunger assembly collectively causes the precursor and the second constituent to be delivered into the needle hub.
