  • Publication number: 20150025500
    Abstract: A system allows for rapid intraosseous delivery of fluids from a fluid reservoir via an intraosseous port having a tip disposed within the bone marrow of a patient. The system includes a housing with a chamber and a plunger. An actuator is moveable between first and second positions to move the plunger between the distal and proximal positions. A valve housing includes a first one-way valve fluidly coupled to the fluid reservoir, and a second one-way valve fluidly coupled to the intraosseous port. The valves of the valve housing are oriented such that movement of the actuator from the first to the second position moves the plunger from the distal to the proximal position, drawing fluid from the fluid reservoir through the first valve and into the chamber. Movement of the actuator from the second to the first position moves the plunger from the proximal to the distal position, driving fluid from the chamber through the port and second valve and through the intraosseous port.
