A fluid connector comprising a housing having an access site, and a cover member passively positioned in an initial covering relationship with the access site, the cover member being reversible from an uncovered relationship under load to the initial covering relationship, is described. A method of preventing contamination and aseptically covering an access site of a fluid connector with a cover member is also described.

Anti-contamination cover for fluid connections

A fluid transfer device comprising a housing and a flow controller at least partially slidably disposed in the housing, the flow controller comprising at least one fluid channel and a vent conduit. A shroud, alone or in combination with the fluid transfer device comprising a plurality of segments terminating in a annular edge and defining a plurality of openings, and a plurality of protrusions, each of the plurality of protrusions having a proximal end connected to the annular edge and a distal end positioned in one of the plurality of openings adapted for the housing of the fluid transfer device is provided.

Fluid transfer device

An applicator device for applying a fluid is provided. The applicator device may include a handle. The handle may comprise an elongate hollow body having a proximal end and a distal end and at least one longitudinal, interior rib disposed on an inner surface of an outer wall of the hollow body and configured to orient and guide a container for containing the fluid when the container is disposed within the hollow body. In addition, the applicator device may include a base at the distal end of the hollow body. Further, the applicator device may include an applicator pad coupled to the base.

Fluid application device and method

A compact ultrasound needle guidance system and method of use is described. The needle guidance system has components to adjustably target a needle's destination in the plane of a two-dimensional ultrasound image before insertion of a needle into a patient. Needle movement is tracked using a position detector that provides a visual display of the needle path on the ultrasonic image.

Ultrasound guidance system

A fluid transfer device is disclosed and described, the device comprising a housing comprising a first piercing assembly associated with the housing, the first piercing assembly adapted for accessing a first container, the first piercing assembly comprising a first piercing member comprising at least one conduit. A second piercing assembly is associated with the housing, the second piercing assembly adapted for accessing a second container, the second piercing assembly comprising a second piercing member comprising at least one conduit.

Dual container fluid transfer device

A syringe needle safety apparatus comprising a syringe barrel having an open end and an opposite end adapted for a needle and a needle safety cover displaceable between a un-deployed state wherein the cover is constrained and the needle exposed, and a deployed state wherein the cover covers at least the needle tip. A plunger is slidably engaged in the syringe barrel and at least one element secures the needle safety cover in the un-deployed state. Biasing means urge the needle safety cover from the un-deployed state to the deployed state, and a housing is coupled to the opposite end of the syringe barrel, the housing comprising a corresponding securing member and a deformable member, the deformable member releasing the at least one element from the corresponding securing member upon receiving a releasing force via the plunger. During deployment, the needle safety mechanism provides for the needle safety cover to avoid contact with the needle, reducing or eliminating blood contact.

Needle safety mechanism

A device for mixing and transferring is described. The device comprises a housing having open ends, a container accessing member having at least one fluid conduit therethrough, the container accessing member extending generally outwardly from one end of the housing. The device comprises a fluid delivery device accessing member having at least one fluid conduit therethrough, the fluid delivery device accessing member extending generally outwardly from the other end of the housing having the container accessing member, the fluid delivery device accessing member and the container accessing member in fluid communication therewith.

Vial access and injection system

A vial adapter is described comprising a housing, the housing comprising an expandable chamber to contain a volume, an internal passage in communication with the expandable chamber, at least one opening in communication with the internal passage, and an access member integral with the housing. A hollow spike comprising a proximal end is integral with the housing and a distal end. The spike comprises a vent lumen open at the distal end and a fluid lumen open at the distal end, the vent lumen is in communication with the internal passage and the fluid lumen is in communication with the access member. A first check valve restricts communication from the expandable chamber to the internal passage, and a second check valve restricts communication from the internal passage to the opening. Methods of reconstituting and/or withdrawing hazardous material using the vial adapter are described.

Vented safe handling vial adapter

A vehicle hand control assembly which, when installed on a motor vehicle, allows the user to control the brake pedal and the accelerator pedal with his hands. Two telescoping members are pivotally attached to a plate which is then secured to the individual pedal with a strap. The strap loops around the pedal and is then attached to the telescoping member with a hook and loop fastener in order to secure the strap, thereby allowing the user to easily install the device without reaching to the floor.

Hand control for vehicles

A multi-terrain wheelchair which has numerous features to provide for high degrees of maneuverability, versatility, comfort, convenience, and stability. The wheelchair has a suspension system in which a swing arm is attached to a rear camber tube and rear axle assembly. The swing arm pivots about an upward protrusion from the frame of the wheelchair. The swing arm meets resistance from a pneumatic cylinder, also attached to the frame. The pneumatic cylinder rather than the frame and the occupant absorbs any forces resulting from rough terrain. This suspension system results in a more comfortable ride and increases the versatility of the chair, in that it can traverse rough terrain with less impact on its occupant. The front wheel assembly of the wheelchair provides it with great maneuverability and stability. The large front wheels enable the chair to roll over any obstacle. Wheel stops and a linkage are provided between the front wheels. The back wheels are cambered for stability and to enable the occupant who is wheeling the chair to keep his hands clear of obstacles. An adjustable footrest and seat and a curved backrest increase comfort for the occupant. The removable seat and high mounted pushbars provide the wheelchair with great convenience as well.
