Abstract: An injection device suitable for use with infants is disclosed. The injection device is formed from a body shield member and a cylindrical handle. The body shield member includes a concave flange at the base, which is pressed against the patient's limb and reduces local compression at the needle insertion site. The injection device also has a softer form and operates through a pressing motion. A catch member is located in the cylindrical handle, and is deployed upon fully depressing the handle. Once the handle returns to its starting position, the catch member prevents the handle from being depressed a second time and permitting the used needle to be exposed.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices for providing subcutaneous hydration are disclosed. A system for providing subcutaneous hydration may include an infusion bag including a hydration fluid, a tubing removably connected to the infusion bag, a squeezable bulb at least partially encompassing the tubing for at least one of flushing and priming the tubing, and a deployment device including an integrated needle which is operative provide subcutaneous hydration through the needle. A deployment device for subcutaneous hydration includes a base may include a needle aperture, a spring-loaded barrel attached the base and including a needle, and a firing mechanism within the barrel for deploying the needle from the barrel and further operative to project the needle through the aperture only when a tent of skin has been raised within the aperture for injection. A method for providing subcutaneous hydration may include steps necessary to operate the systems and devices for subcutaneous hydration.
