  • Publication number: 20240131261
    Abstract: An adaptor for a syringe including a shaft with a lumen and a seal. The shaft is sized and shaped to be inserted in the lumen of the syringe tip and create a seal with the opening of the syringe tip, and the seal is sized and shaped to be inserted into the needle hub and create a seal with the needle hub, such that the adaptor reduces the interior volume of the lumen of the syringe tip and the needle hub that is filled with medicament contained in the syringe. Also, an adaptor assembly comprising the adaptor and a delivery housing to which the adaptor is attached, a syringe body including the adaptor, a needle assembly including the adaptor, and a syringe including the adaptor. Further, a method of reducing the dead volume of a syringe in which the adaptor is provide in the syringe as described above.

  • Patent number: 11865322
    Abstract: A single use delivery device is disclosed having a manually deformable liquid container defining an inner chamber, the container having a distal end, a body, a proximal end, and an outlet on the distal end; a tip projecting from the outlet on the distal end of the container, the tip in fluid communication with the inner chamber of the container; a primer element for removing one or more air bubbles from the chamber, said primer element being attached to and in fluid communication with the deformable container, the container, the tip and the primer element being collapsible to minimize dead space in the delivery device; and two or more one-way valves. A method of administering a fluid to or flushing a vascular access device using a single use pre-filled delivery device as described herein is also disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20230087192
    Abstract: A single use pre-filled delivery device is disclosed having a deformable container including a side wall having an inside surface defining a chamber for retaining fluid, a clip element, and a locking element. The deformable container further includes a closed proximal end and an open distal end including a male luer tip having a passageway therethrough providing fluid communication with the chamber. The male luer tip may be removably connectable to a female luer connection of a vascular access device. The clip element includes a distal end, proximal end, and a pivot located between the distal end and the proximal end of the clip element for collapsing the deformable container to drive fluid out of the chamber by movement of the proximal end towards the distal end. The pivot may be a hinge, which may be in the form of a living hinge. The deformable container may be attached to the clip element. The locking element may be disposed on the clip element.
