Abstract: An infusion system includes a wearable infusion device, a safety assembly, and a tool. The device includes a liquid medicament dispenser having a base attachable to a patient's skin and that, when enabled, causes the liquid medicament to flow to beneath the skin of the patient, and an actuator that, when engaged, enables the dispenser. The safety assembly precludes unintended engagement of the actuator and the tool is arranged to disable the safety assembly.
Abstract: An infusion system comprises a disposable wearable infusion device having a body arranged to be adhered to a patient's skin and a reservoir for holding a liquid medicament to be infused into the patient. The infusion system further comprises a filler device arranged to be detachably received by the infusion device and to provide a positive pressure directly to the liquid medicament to transfer a volume of the liquid medicament to the infusion device reservoir.
Abstract: An infusion system comprises a disposable wearable infusion device having a body arranged to be adhered to a patient's skin and a reservoir for holding a liquid medicament to be infused into the patient and a filler assembly arranged to be detachably received by the infusion device. The filler assembly is configured to receive a source of liquid medicament and provides a negative pressure to pull liquid medicament from the source of medicament to the infusion device reservoir.
Abstract: A wearable infusion device comprises a reservoir that holds a liquid medicament, an outlet port that delivers the liquid medicament to a patient, a pump that displaces a volume of the liquid medicament to the outlet port when actuated, and a control that actuates the pump. The control comprises a snap action actuator.
Abstract: A wearable infusion device comprises a reservoir, an outlet port, and a pump. The device further comprises a medicament level indicator including a non-elastic, non-compressible, elongated web fixed at one end with respect to the reservoir. The web is arranged to move with linear movement as the reservoir is filled and emptied.
Abstract: A disposable infusion device comprises a reservoir that holds a liquid medicament, a pump that displaces the liquid medicament from the reservoir to the patient, at least one valve that conducts the displaced medicament from the reservoir, and a fluid conduit that conducts the medicament from the reservoir, to the pump, and to the patient. The device includes a layered structure that defines the reservoir, pump, valve, and fluid conduit.
Abstract: A wearable infusion device comprises a reservoir that holds a liquid medicament, an outlet port that delivers the liquid medicament to a patient, a pump that delivers a volume of the liquid medicament from the reservoir to the outlet when actuated, and a tactile indicator representing the volume of the liquid medicament delivered to the outlet with each actuation of the pump.
Abstract: A wearable infusion device comprises a first control movable between a first position and a second position that when in the first position, establishes a first fluid path between a reservoir and a pump and when in the second position, establishes a second fluid path between the pump and an outlet. A second control actuates the pump only when the second fluid path has been established by the first control.
Abstract: A wearable infusion device comprises a reservoir that holds a liquid medicament, an outlet port that delivers the liquid medicament to a patient, a pump that displaces a volume of the liquid medicament to the outlet port when actuated, and a control that actuates the pump. A lock-out disables the device when a predefined amount of medicament has been delivered to the outlet.
