Abstract: The invention relates to a device for vacuum stoppering a medical container. The device includes a main body defining an internal volume that has a variable pressure chamber configured to be connected to a vacuum pump. A stopper holder system is arranged in communication with the variable pressure chamber and is configured to receive and hold a stopper aligned with the direction of travel of a piston rod. A piston rod is moveable inside the internal volume of the main body along a longitudinal axis between a proximal rest position and a distal operative position wherein the piston rod pushes the stopper into the medical container. A container holder system provided in the main body, is arranged distally relative to the stopper holder system and in communication with the variable pressure chamber.

Abstract: A nest (10) for the storage of medical device components, including a top surface (12), a bottom surface (14), and a plurality of receptacles (20) for the storage of a plurality of medical device components therein, wherein each of the plurality of receptacles (20) includes a sidewall portion (22) extending downward from the bottom surface (14) of the nest (10). The nest (10) further includes a plurality of openings (26) formed in the top surface (12) and a plurality of stacking pins (28) extending from the bottom surface (14). Each of the plurality of openings (26) is substantially aligned with a respective one of the plurality of stacking pins (28) so as to enable two or more nests (10) to be stacked vertically relative to one another via association between the openings (26) and the stacking pins (28).

Abstract: Provided herein is a subassembly for a drug delivery device, including a housing, a displaceable needle cover having a distal end having a flange, the needle cover being received within the housing and configured to have a pre-use position in which the needle cover extends from the housing and a use position in which the needle cover is at least partially displaced into the housing. Displacement of the needle cover into the housing actuates the drug delivery device. The subassembly further includes a cap assembly including a push back element operatively received within the retainer, wherein the push back element is configured to push the retainer in a proximal direction.

Abstract: A tip cap assembly for coupling with a syringe body includes a luer lock adaptor, a rigid cap coupled to the luer lock adaptor; a rigid tip cap having distal end and proximal ends, the rigid tip cap being disposed at least partially within the rigid cap, a RFID tag positioned over the distal end of the tip cap, and an adhesive layer formed over the RFID tag. Also provided is RFID inlay for use with medical devices including a meshed substrate, and a RFID antenna and integrated circuit assembly adhered to the meshed substrate. A syringe and label assembly is disclosed, including a body having distal and proximal ends, a tip cap assembly having distal end and proximal ends, and a label at least partially surrounding the distal end of the syringe body and the proximal end of the tip cap, the label comprises an integrated RFID tag.

Abstract: A drug delivery system for injecting a medicament may include a housing defining a cavity, a container received within the cavity and configured to receive a medicament with the container including a closure, a valve assembly received within the cavity and including a piercing member configured to pierce the closure of the container, and a connector arrangement provided between the container and the valve assembly, the connector arrangement movable between a first, pre-use position maintaining sterility between the closure of the container and the valve assembly and a second, use position permitting fluid communication between the container and the valve assembly.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a device for vacuum and vent tube stoppering a medical container. The device includes a main body defining an internal volume that has a first variable pressure chamber configured to be connected to a vacuum pump, the main body being configured to receive the proximal end of a medical container so that said medical container is in communication with the first variable pressure chamber. A vent device including a vent tube is moveable inside the internal volume of the main body along a longitudinal axis between a proximal rest position and a distal operative position. A piston rod is moveable inside the internal volume of the vent tube along the longitudinal axis between a proximal rest position and a distal operative position. A container holder system is provided in the main body, in communication with the first variable pressure chamber.

Abstract: This packaging device comprises a first stage (2a) of supporting units (20) configured to support a first plurality of medical containers (100a) in a first plane, a second stage (2b) of supporting units (20) configured to support a second plurality of medical containers (100b) in a second plane parallel to said first plane, the first plane and the second plane being spaced apart from each other so that the distal ends (106) of the first plurality of medical containers (100a) extend between medical containers of the second plurality of medical containers (100b), and the supporting units (20) of the first and second stages (2a, 2b) being configured so that the medical containers of the first and second pluralities of medical containers (100a, 100b) are oriented in a same direction. The first stage (2a) of supporting units (20) is formed by a first plate-shaped nest and the second stage (2b) of supporting units (20) is formed by a second plate-shaped nest.
