Abstract: A safety device for a drug delivery system includes a first member including a first arm having first and second ends and a length extending therebetween and a second member including a second arm having first and second ends and a length extending therebetween. The second end of the first member defines a first wall region. The first member further includes a first guard positioned at or near the second end thereof. The second member is rotatably coupled with the first member, and the second end thereof defines a second wall region and a needle guide member. The second member further includes a second guard positioned at or near the second end thereof. Upon rotatably positioning the second end of the first member near or adjacent to the second end of the second member, the first and second wall regions cooperate to define a container connector receptacle and the first and second guards cooperate to define a hand guard.

Abstract: A collapsible office chair and reconfigurable work desk can assume compact stowage configurations to minimize floor space occupied during periods of non-use. The chair includes a seat and leg assembly both coupled to a seat post. The seat is pivotable from a use configuration to a tilted or stowed configuration that occupies less floor space. The leg assembly includes a plurality of legs coupled to a lower portion of the seat post, with one or more of the legs typically being movable from a use configuration that provides a suitably wide base for the seat in its use configuration, to a compact stowed configuration that occupies less floor space but can still support the chair in a freestanding manner. Optionally, a seat back is attached to the seat and is also repositionable between use and stowed configurations, the latter occupying less floor space and less vertical height.
