| 20090171311 | DISPENSER AND THERAPEUTIC PACKAGE SUITABLE FOR ADMINISTERING A THERAPEUTIC SUBSTANCE TO A SUBJECT, ALONG WITH METHOD RELATING TO SAME - A dispensing device comprises a sealed package including a collapsible compartment and an administration assembly. The administration assembly includes a delivery device in fluid communication with a substance within the sealed package. A compression panel collapses the compartment to dispense a substance through the delivery device. Embodiments for a single use dispenser for hypodermic administration of a unit dose of a therapeutic fluid, as well as therapeutic packages and methods for administering therapeutic substances to subjects, are also provided. | 07-02-2009 |
| 20090173166 | MULTI-SENSOR MASS FLOW METER ALONG WITH METHOD FOR ACCOMPLISHING SAME - A device for measuring fluid flow rates over a wide range of flow rates. The invention is particularly adapted for use in micro-fluidic systems including fluids administration to a body of a patient. The device operates by producing characteristics variations in the fluid, or pulses, that are subsequently sensed by more than one detector spaced apart from the point of creation of the mark to derive a flow rate. Each pulse comprises a small fluid volume, whose characteristics are different from the mean characteristics of the fluid, such as by composition variations created by electrochemical means, such as by electrolysis of a solvent, electrolysis of a dissolved species, or electrodialysis of a dissolved ionic species, or a thermal variation created by focused electromagnetic radiation. The device comprises at least two detectors (also sometimes referred to as sensors) to improve the accuracy of the measurement in varying flow rates, to compensate for errors resulting from the drift of the pulses in the fluid, to compensate for varying or unstable flow rates, and to establish a positive signal for sub-range flow. A method of measuring fluid flow rate is proposed where measurements comprising data of one mark from at least two sensor readings plus one other time event are combined to determine the reported flow rate. | 07-09-2009 |
| 20100022992 | Drug Delivery Device - The present application provides a drug-delivery device comprising a drug reservoir chamber | 01-28-2010 |
| 20100087778 | CONTROLLABLE DRUG DELIVERY DEVICE - A controllable drug delivery device for delivering a liquid injectable drug, said device comprising a drug reservoir ( | 04-08-2010 |
| 20100108555 | PACKAGES AND METHODS FOR USE WITH STORED ITEMS - An at least partially flexible sealed package comprises an opening assembly that includes a sliding component and a lifetime indicator for indicating an expiry status of a product within a storage compartment of the package. Movement of said sliding component relative to the lifetime indicator serving to open a seal of said package and activate the lifetime indicator. | 05-06-2010 |
| 20100139655 | DRY-POWDER INHALER - A dry-powder, breath-powered inhaler device comprising at least one air inlet, a flow chamber and an air outlet leading to a mouthpiece, the flow chamber further comprising at least one drug-containing volume and at least one scraping means and a rotor assembly comprising an axis and at least one blade; wherein the inhalation action of the patient applied at the air outlet causes air to enter the at least one air inlet such that the air interacts with the at least one rotor blade causing the rotor to rotate and thus generate breath-driven, relative motion between the at least one drug-containing volume and the at least one scraping means, such that fine particles of powder are released from the drug-containing volume; the arrangement being such that the air exits the flow chamber via the periphery of the flow chamber, carrying out the fine particles to the outlet to be inhaled by the patient. | 06-10-2010 |
