Abstract: A medical device is provided comprising a transcutaneous device unit and a reservoir unit. The transcutaneous device unit comprises a transcutaneous device for transporting a fluid through a skin portion of a subject, and a mounting surface adapted for application to the skin of the subject. The reservoir unit comprises a reservoir adapted to contain a fluid drug, the reservoir comprising an outlet means allowing the transcutaneous device to be arranged in fluid communication with an interior of the reservoir, and an expelling assembly for expelling a fluid drug out of the reservoir and through the skin of the subject via the transcutaneous device. The transcutaneous device unit and the reservoir unit further comprise coupling means allowing the reservoir unit to be secured to the transcutaneous device unit in the situation of use. By this arrangement a two-unit system is provided which can be used in a convenient and cost-effective manner.

Abstract: A needle mounting system and methods for mounting a needle assembly on a needle mount are disclosed. The needle mounting system includes a needle hub having protrusions extending radially inward. A needle mount has a plurality of slots to receive the protrusions. The slots have a first portion that defines a passageway substantially parallel to a longitudinal axis of the needle mount and a second portion substantially perpendicular to the axis. The needle hub and mount provide a method wherein a needle assembly may be mounted on an injection device without completely rotating the needle hub relative to the needle mount.

Abstract: This invention relates to a safety system for an electrically driven medical delivery device for delivering a dose of medication, wherein the safety system is configured for preventing delivery of an erroneous dose of the medicament and comprising detector means for registering mechanical movement, the system comprising at least two detector means (10, 11) for detecting a mechanical parameter and for emitting signals to control circuits (14, 15) configured for controlling the rower supply to driving means (12) for the delivery device. Further, this invention relates to a computer-readable medium comprising a program for controlling a delivery device etc. This allows providing a system that works very quickly, accurately and reliable as to preventing an erroneous dose of medication.

Abstract: A drug delivery device capable of working in at least two different modes which includes a dose injection mode and a set-up mode. The drug delivery device automatically changes from the dose injection mode to the set-up mode and vice versa in accordance with the detection of the cover by a cover detection switch. In the dose injection mode doses can be set and injected; in the set-up mode various parameters assisting the use of the drug delivery device can be set. This setting is preferably done by selecting the parameters from a menu, also in this mode historical data stored in the device can be viewed.

Abstract: The invention provides a transcutaneous medical device (502, 250, 150, 600) comprising a lower surface adapted for application towards the skin of a subjet, attaching means (571, 272, 161) for securing the lower surface relative to the skin, and a transcutaneous device (530, 182, 213, 651) adapted to penetrate the skin of the subject. The transcutaneous device is mounted for movement be-tween an extended position in which the transcutaneous device projects relative to the lower surface and a retracted position in which the transcutaneous device is retracted relative to the lower surface.

Abstract: A medical device is provided comprising a reservoir adapted to contain a fluid drug in an interior thereof, and a pump assembly. The pump assembly comprises a pump inlet, a pump outlet and an internal flow path arranged there between, and a fluid connector having an inlet and an outlet. The fluid connector is arranged to be operated from an initial state in which the fluid connector is arranged within the interior of the pump and an actuated state in which fluid communication is established between the interior of the reservoir and the interior of the pump assembly via the fluid connector and with the outlet of the fluid connector being arranged in the flow path of the pump assembly.

Abstract: The present invention relates to medical devices which are adapted for application to a skin surface of a user and comprise a transcutaneous device which is supplied in a sterile condition. Thus, a medical device is provided, comprising a mounting surface adapted for application to the skin of a subject, a first portion having a first end adapted to penetrate the skin of the subject, and a second portion in fluid communication with the first portion and having a second end. The device further comprises enclosure means being transformable from an initial configuration encapsulating the first and second portions in an initial aseptic state, to a second configuration in which the ends of the first and second portions are allowed to communicate with the exterior through the enclosure means, wherein the enclosure means does not enclose the mounting surface.
