Abstract: The piston rod arrangement is in an assembled state before use and comprises a piston rod, a bung, which is intended to be driven by the piston rod, a body member, and a drive member. The piston rod is threadedly engaged with the body member, and the drive member is threadedly engaged with the piston rod and movable relative to the body member. A mechanism is provided defining unit steps of movement of the drive member and corresponding unit steps of movement of the piston rod.

Abstract: A treatment system for applying negative pressure therapy and fluid instillation treatment to a tissue site, particularly an abdominal tissue site, is disclosed. In some embodiments, the treatment system may include a dressing member, a plurality of fluid removal pathways, a fluid instillation matrix, a drape, a negative-pressure source, and a fluid instillation source. Instillation fluid may be delivered from the fluid instillation source to the tissue site through the fluid instillation matrix, and negative pressure may be communicated and fluid withdrawn from the tissue site through the plurality of fluid removal pathways.

Abstract: A drug delivery device, comprises a housing having a longitudinal axis; an axially moveable component that is moveable along the longitudinal axis between a dose dialing position and a dose delivery position when a user operates the device to deliver a dose of drug; an encoder sleeve; an encoder pattern provided on the encoder sleeve, the encoder pattern comprising relatively conductive portions and relatively non-conductive portions that together comprise coded information; a contact-supporting component; and plural electrical contacts provided on the contact-supporting component. The plural electrical contacts contact the encoder pattern when the dose delivery button is in the dose dialing position and wherein the device is configured to move the contact-supporting component relative to the encoder sleeve as the axially moveable component moves from the dose dialing position to the dose delivery position such as to move the electrical contacts into positions where they do not contact the encoder pattern.

Abstract: Described is a needle assembly magazine comprising a housing including a coupling having a proximal aperture adapted to receive a medicament delivery device and a distal aperture adapted to receive a needle of a needle assembly, a needle guard coupled to the housing and having an aperture axially aligned with the distal aperture of the coupling, and a needle assembly carrier rotatably coupled to the needle guard and adapted to hold a plurality of needle assemblies.

Abstract: A medicated module includes (i) a rotatable reservoir body comprising (a) a flow path and (b) a medicament-reservoir profile and (ii) a pin feature disposed in the rotatable reservoir body, the pin feature comprising a medicament-cavity profile. The medicated module also includes a second medicament, wherein the second medicament is held in a reservoir formed at least in part by the medicament-reservoir profile and the medicament-cavity profile, and wherein, prior to dispense, the second medicament is filled to at least the proximal end of the medicament-cavity profile.

Abstract: A medicated module for an injection system to co-deliver at least two medicaments is disclosed where a primary delivery device containing a primary medicament accepts a medicated module containing a single dose of a secondary medicament and where both medicaments are delivered through a hollow needle. The medicated module is initially in a locked state until attached to a drug delivery where interaction of the cartridge holder with the module bypass housing changes the module to a triggerable state. The medicated module does not require the user to manually engage a reservoir containing the secondary medicament. Instead, a biasing member automatically activates the reservoir when the needle guard is retracted when the module is in the triggerable state. The needle guard prevents accidental needle sticks before and after an injection, and locks after removal from the injection site.
