  • Publication number: 20090275895
    Abstract: A drug delivery device (1) for delivering fluid drug, preferably liquid drug. The device (1) comprises means for receiving and retaining a reservoir (5) containing drug. The retaining means (13, 14) is movable between a locking state, in which the reservoir (5) is retained, and an unlocking state, in which the reservoir (5) is released. Thereby drug from several reservoirs (5) may be delivered while the device (1) is operated using only one hand. Thereby the risk of displacing an infusion needle during change of reservoir is minimised. The device (1) comprises pumping means (3) for causing a flow of fluid in an established fluid connection. The drug delivery device (1) is preferably movable between an ‘aspiration mode’ and an ‘infusion mode’, most preferably automatically during insertion/release of a reservoir (5). This enables integrated (blood) aspiration, minimum waste of drug and minimum unintended infusion of air in the vein.

  • Publication number: 20090216184
    Abstract: A drug storage and delivery device (1) comprising a reservoir (2) containing a liquid, a vial (3) containing a dry drug, such as a lyophilized drug, means (6) for forcing the liquid from the reservoir (2) to the vial (3), via an established fluid connection, and locking means adapted to prevent the means (6) for establishing a fluid connection from re-establishing a previously disconnected fluid connection between the reservoir and the vial. Thereby the dry drug is reconstituted, and the forcing means (6) may subsequently be used for forcing reconstituted drug out of the device (1). The reservoir (2), the vial (3), the fluid connection and the forcing means (6) may form an at least substantially integral unit. This is an advantage because the number of steps needed to be performed by the user is reduced, the risk of contamination is reduced, the risk of incorrect reconstitution and dosage is reduced, and the device is easy to operate, e.g. using just one hand.

  • Publication number: 20090182300
    Abstract: A drug mixing device (1) comprising at least two vial holders (4), at least one reservoir holder and means for establishing fluid connections between the reservoir holder (2) and the vial holders (4). Each of the vial holders (4) is adapted to receive a vial (5) containing a dry drug, such as a lyophilized drug, and each vial holder (4) comprises a hollow spike (9) adapted to penetrate a septum of a vial (5). Each of the reservoir holder (2) is adapted to receive a reservoir (3, 21) containing a liquid. Liquid can be provided from reservoir (3, 21) to vials (5) via an established fluid connection in order to reconstitute the dry drug. Each of the spikes (9) is provided with a stopping member (11) adapted to be in a first position in which a fluid passage is allowed, and a second position in which such passage is prevented.

  • Publication number: 20070211911
    Abstract: A microphone inlet structure has a sound duct between an opening in a first face of a microphone casing and a gasket area, whereby the gasket area is shaped to extend around the opening in the microphone casing and to follow the outline of the first face at least in the area near the opening.
