20080249479 | Liquid Drug Delivery System - Liquid drug delivery system including an actuating connector with a two-part housing reciprocal between an expanded operative state and a compressed operative state. The actuating connector is coupled on an actuated connector with a Normally Closed (NC) valve having an exteriorly accessible end surface with a Normally Closed (NC) port which is opened on manipulation of the actuating connector from its initial expanded operative state to its compressed operative state to enable an initially occluded flow path. The NC valve's exteriorly accessible end surface is dry subsequent to reverse manipulation of the actuating connector and de-coupling the actuating connector from the actuated connector. A range of actuated connectors are available for handling hazardous liquid drugs supplied in pre-filled syringes or requiring reconstitution, and different modes of administration to a subject. Intended modes of administration include inter alia injection, drip feed, intravenous injection, and the like. | 10-09-2008 |
20080262465 | NEEDLELESS ADDITIVE CONTROL VALVE - A needleless additive control valve for use with a fluid container containing an infusion liquid and having an intravenous (IV) port for administrating the infusion liquid, and an additive transfer device containing a liquid additive and having a male connector for administrating the liquid additive. The needleless additive control valve includes a trifurcated connector body having an IV spike for sealing insertion into the IV port, an outlet port, and a needleless additive port with a female connector for sealingly receiving the additive transfer device's male connector wherein the IV spike, the outlet port and the needleless additive port are in 3 way direct and continuous fluid communication thereby enabling the additive transfer device's liquid additive to be either mixed with the infusion liquid or directly administered to a patient. | 10-23-2008 |
20090054834 | MEDICAL DEVICE FOR IN SITU LIQUID DRUG RECONSTITUTION IN MEDICINAL VESSELS - Medical device for in situ liquid drug reconstitution in medicinal vessels containing drug contents. The medical device includes a body member having a vessel port for insertion into a medicinal vessel containing drug contents, and a syringe port for receiving a syringe containing a diluent for reconstituting the drug contents into a reconstituted liquid drug. The medical device includes a one-way flow restriction mechanism between the two ports for positively restricting injection of diluent into a medicinal vessel and only slightly restricting aspiration of reconstituted liquid drug therefrom, if at all. | 02-26-2009 |
20090082750 | FLUID TRANSFER DEVICES FOR USE WITH CARTRIDGES - Fluid transfer devices for use with syringes and cartridges having an open ended tube hermetically sealed by a rubber stopper and a slidable seal at opposite leading and trailing ends, respectively. The fluid transfer devices include a syringe port and a cartridge port for correspondingly slidingly receiving a syringe and a cartridge. The cartridge port preferably includes a primary puncturing member and a secondary puncturing member for correspondingly puncturing a cartridge's rubber stopper offset from its center for fluid transfer purposes between a syringe and a cartridge, and venting purposes. The fluid transfer devices are preferably used with stopping devices for preventing ejection of a cartridge's seal during a filling procedure. | 03-26-2009 |
20090177177 | Liquid Drug Transfer Devices for Failsafe Correct Snap Fitting Onto Medicinal Vials - Liquid drug transfer devices including a vial adapter designed for failsafe correct snap fitting on a medicinal vial for ensuring flow communication with the vial's interior. The vial adapters include at least two non-adjacent vial retention flex members for snap fitting over a vial opening for vial retention purposes and at least two non-adjacent vial guidance flex members longer than their counterpart vial retention flex members for guiding a vial adapter with respect to a vial prior to snap fitting the vial adapter thereon. | 07-09-2009 |
20100087786 | Automatic Liquid Drug Preparation Apparatus for the Preparation of a Predetermined Dosage of Liquid Drug - Automatic liquid drug preparation apparatus for preparing a liquid drug assemblage with a predetermined dosage of liquid drug. The liquid drug assemblage is prepared from a preparatory assemblage including a fluid control device having a body member with a syringe port, a vial adapter, and an administration port, a vial pre-filled with powder or liquid medicament, and a syringe pre-filled with diluent for mixing with the medicament. The automatic liquid drug preparation apparatus includes a housing, a cradle for receiving the preparatory assemblage, and a controller for controlling a motorized syringe drive unit for selectively transferring liquid contents between the syringe and the vial, a motorized cradle drive unit for selectively rotating the cradle relative to the housing, and a motorized vial adapter release unit for selectively detaching the vial adapter with its attached spent vial from the body member to form the liquid drug assemblage. | 04-08-2010 |

20100198148 | LIQUID DRUG DELIVERY DEVICES FOR USE WITH SYRINGES WITH WIDENED DISTAL TIPS - Liquid drug delivery device includes a housing with a syringe port for sealingly receiving a syringe having a syringe tip ending at a widened distal tip, a vial adapter port with a vial adapter for snap fit receiving a vial, and a drug administration port for administering a liquid drug. The vial adapter is intended to be rotationally detached after a mixing procedure for discarding together with a spent vial. The syringe port additionally includes a single use locking mechanism for securing the syringe to preclude inadvertent syringe detachment under normal use including agitation for reconstitution purposes. The drug administration port has a distal tip preferably similar to a syringe's widened distal tip for the same purpose of preventing conventional needles with a female Luer connector being slidingly mounted thereon. | 08-05-2010 |
20100228220 | LIQUID DRUG MEDICAL DEVICE - The present invention relates to liquid drug medical devices for enabling the administration of liquid drugs, and also a needle shield removal device for safely removing needle shields. | 09-09-2010 |
