Abstract: Various nesting structures for storage, transport and/or assembly of dispensers and containers are described herein. For example, a packaging structure for a plurality of drug dispensers may include a support surface and a plurality of dispenser covers arranged on the support surface, where at least one dispenser cover includes a locking flexure member configured to couple a dispenser to the at least one dispenser cover.

Abstract: Transfer devices with vial adapter and/or an infusion set for reducing overdosing/underdosing of an infusion bag are provided. The transfer device provides user- controlled fluid transferring between an infusion liquid container and a drug-containing container. In one aspect, the transfer device provides user-controlled venting that can be used during liquid transfer between the infusion liquid container and a drug-containing container.

Abstract: A filtered needle for use in administering a liquid payload, including a needle and connector portion and a filtering needle cap. The filtering needle cap including a distal open end in fluid communication via an internal channel with a proximal open end of the filtering needle cap. The filtering needle cap proximal end sized to receive the distal end of the hub within the proximal end of the filtering needle cap to reversibly engage the hub when needle distal end is inserted into the internal channel. The filtering needle cap including a filter element and a seal to seal around an outside diameter of the hollow needle so that liquid payload is drawn into the lumen in the hollow needle as liquid payload is filtered and drawn into the fluid fitting. The filtering needle cap is designed to limit a dead volume of liquid payload drawn into the filtering needle cap but not entering into the distal end of the hollow needle.

Abstract: Pump cassettes, infusion systems, and methods are described. An example pump cassette may include a rigid body comprising a frame portion, a base portion, a compliant membrane disposed substantially therebetween, and two opposing longitudinal edge sections. The rigid body may include a controllable fluid pathway defined in part by the compliant membrane and extending from an inlet port to an outlet port. The pump cassette may include a slider coupled to the two opposing longitudinal edge sections and longitudinally articulable with respect to the rigid body.
