Abstract: Methods for administration of injectable fluids and a vial adapter for use with an injector and a vial containing the fluid. The adapter includes a vial retainer, a spacing disc, and a spacing arm. The vial retainer is sized to receive at least a portion of the vial, the stopper and the stopper retainer of the vial. The spacing disc includes a needle insertion port, and is spaced a predetermined distance from the vial retainer by the spacing arm. A distance an injector needle inserted through the port may extend through the stopper is limited by contact of the injector with the spacing disc.

Abstract: A method of delivering a dose from a single dose syringe includes applying a user input to a rotational component of a plunger rod assembly that is engaged with a plunger rod of the plunger rod assembly to advance a plunger seal in a direction parallel to an axis of rotation of the rotational component from an initial position towards a start of dose delivery position, and upon disengagement of the rotational component from the plunger rod, applying an axial user input to the plunger rod of the plunger rod assembly to advance the plunger seal from the start of dose delivery position to a completion of dose delivery position to deliver the dose, wherein the completion of dose delivery position is defined by abutment between the plunger rod and a housing of the plunger rod assembly.

Abstract: According to some embodiments, a syringe may include a barrel; a delivery conduit; a plunger seal disposed within the barrel; and a plunger rod assembly affixed to an end of the barrel, the plunger rod assembly including a first plunger rod component comprising a first linear gear, a second plunger rod component disposed at least partially in the barrel and engaged with the plunger seal, wherein the second plunger rod component comprises a second linear gear, a first rotational gear having a plurality of gear teeth for engaging the first linear gear, and a second rotational gear having a second plurality of gear teeth for engaging the second linear gear, wherein the first rotational gear is coupled to the second rotational gear such that translation of the first plunger rod component causes translation of the second plunger rod component.

Abstract: A syringe includes a dosage setter operatively coupled to a plunger rod and comprising a rotatable body that comprises a set of one or more stops for engaging the set of one or more protrusions of the plunger rod depending on at least a rotational position of the set of one or more stops relative to the set of one or more protrusions, wherein a first rotational adjustment associated with the dosage setter is configured to set a first dosage increment by adjusting a relative axial position between the rotatable body and the plunger rod, and a second rotational adjustment associated with the dosage setting assembly is configured to set a second dosage increment that is larger than the first dosage increment by adjusting a relative rotational alignment between the set of one or more stops and the set of one or more protrusions.

Abstract: A controlled multidosing delivery device for use with a syringe includes a housing, a plunger rod and a drive shell. The housing having an axially extending chamber including openings at either end, the distal end being adapted for attachment to the syringe barrel. The plunger rod includes a contact button at the proximal end of an elongated shaft and a pusher feature at the distal end. The drive shell is disposed for axial translation within the axially extending chamber. The drive shell includes a head disposed for translation along the axis to provide dose delivery, a plurality of engagement surfaces for engagement by the pushing feature, and a retention feature that inhibits proximal movement of the drive shell when engaged.
