Publication number: 20230136890Abstract: Systems and methods for drug delivery are disclosed in which an injection device comprises a parenteral interface, comprising a support and a needle assembly, suspended within a cavity in a housing of the device such that the parenteral interface is movably mounted with respect to the housing when the needle assembly is in the injection position. The parenteral interface can be configured to allow movement of the housing of the device with respect to the skin without displacing the needle assembly. The devices can be configured to passively or actively compensate for movement of the housing relative to the injection site to ensure correct delivery depth is maintained during time device is worn. For example, by mounting the support of the parenteral interface on a deformable mount or an articulated or rotatable component.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 23, 2021Publication date: May 4, 2023Inventors: Alex LYNESS, Geoffrey ROUIN, Brian COSTELLO

Patent number: 11122059Abstract: The invention relates to a resource landscape system that allows users to identify issues with elements within the organization and implement changes to the elements utilizing a relational database that utilizes nodes for defining the elements and relationships between the elements. The resource landscape system and applications therein provide a holistic inventory of resources, threat vectors, controls, metrics, policies, rules, and/or the like. The resource landscape system may be implemented through one or more interfaces that allows users to view cross-references of the elements, identify the priority of the elements using the crossed-references, and/or identify element issues in the elements of the organization that could results in threats to the organization. Moreover, the invention allows for receiving changes to one or more of the elements and automatically updating the cross-references of the elements, the priority of the elements, and/or the element issues.Type: GrantFiled: August 20, 2018Date of Patent: September 14, 2021Assignee: BANK OF AMERICA CORPORATIONInventors: Brandon Sloane, Rachel Yun Kim Bierner, Mark Earl Brubaker, Regina Yee Cadavid, John Brian Costello, Cora Yan Quon

Patent number: 11077259Abstract: A needle safety device has an outer tube within which a syringe barrel from which a cannula extends is slideably receivable. A collar in the outer tube is moveable relative thereto and rotatably attachable to the distal end of the barrel. A force member biases the outer tube in a distal direction. A cannula shield able to receive the cannula therein is in the outer tube. The cannula shield is fixedly attached to a cap removably attached to the outer tube. A track is formed in the inner surface of the outer tube. A pin extending radially outwardly from the collar slidingly engages the track. In a pre-injection position, the cannula is entirely within the outer tube. In a full-insertion position, the cannula extends beyond the outer tube. In a locked position, the cannula is irreversibly retained entirely within the outer tube.Type: GrantFiled: June 20, 2018Date of Patent: August 3, 2021Assignee: WEST PHARMACEUTICAL SERVICES, INC.Inventors: Christopher Evans, Brian Costello, Christopher Gieda, Raymond Protasiewicz, Kristofer Meehan

Patent number: 10643744Abstract: A method of detecting and/or tracking use of a drug delivery device is disclosed. The drug delivery device includes a machine readable code and a visual indicator, and has pre-use and used states, such that use of the drug delivery device triggers a transition from the pre-use to the used state. The visual indicator has a first state when the drug delivery device is in the pre-use state and a different second state when the drug delivery device is in the used state. The method includes enabling a user device having an image sensor to capture an image of the drug delivery device, determining, by the user device processor from the captured image, whether the visual indicator of the drug delivery device is in the second state, and obtaining, by the processor, information from the machine readable code when the visual indicator is determined to be in the second state.Type: GrantFiled: February 22, 2017Date of Patent: May 5, 2020Assignee: West Pharmaceutical Services, Inc.Inventors: Kevin Hopper, Stacy Faught, Christopher Evans, Brian Costello, Raymond Protasiewicz
