An infusion set, including a set having a skin contacting surface, a catheter extending from the set, and a flexible ring having an integral fluid path therethrough. The flexible ring is configured to expand to a first diameter to allow placement over the set, and contract to a second diameter to securely circumscribe an outer diameter of the set. The infusion set also includes a tubing length secured to the flexible ring, and a fitting or spike disposed at an end of the tubing length and extending into the flexible ring. The fitting or spike is configured to sealably mate with an opening of the set to permit communication of a medicament therebetween.

Infusion set

A system for providing the collection of advanced, improved, and novel new components and elements in a single package to simplify assembly and use of the infusion set by the user, including one or more of an exemplary pushbutton-type inserter, squeeze-type inserter, contact-type inserter, skin pinching-type inserter, folding retraction-type inserter, and/or multistage-type inserter () having at least one reusable stage, an exemplary set () having an adhesion means with two or more user-selectable degrees of adhesion strength, a self-sealing tube connection means, a lens feature to view a site beneath the set, exemplary tube management and connection elements (), insulin supply (), adhesion concealment means (), finger loops on the inserter and site preparation wipes or sprays () which can be provided as part of the inserter. The system can further include an exemplary package () which can hold a number of sets that can be easily released and retrieved from the tray by an inserter, an exemplary insertion needle handle and shroud, an exemplary squeeze-type latch between an upper portion and a lower portion of the set, and/or a tool removable upper portion of the set.

A single package infusion set is provided, including one or more of the following inserters: pushbutton-type, squeeze-type, contact-type, skin pinching-type, folding retraction-type, or multistage-type inserter having at least one reusable stage. The infusion set further includes adhesion means with user-selectable degrees of adhesion strength, self-sealing tube connection means, a lens feature to view, a site beneath the set, exemplary tube management and connection elements, insulin supply, adhesion concealment means, finger loops on the inserter and site preparation wipes or sprays, optionally provided as part of the inserter. The system further includes a package which may hold a number of easily released sets, retrievable by an inserter, an exemplary insertion needle handle and shroud, an exemplary squeeze-type latch between an upper portion and a lower portion of the set, and/or a tool removable upper portion of the set.

Sample preparation device for receiving in sealing relation one or more filter assemblies and one or more sample containers, each container uniquely positioned within the device to receive filtered sample from a designated filter. The device includes a body, a lid disposed on the body, a container tray, a base, an integrated seal on the body, a valve and a valve actuator. The tray can be disposed in a vacuum chamber defined by the lid and the body, and one or more sample containers can be disposed in the tray. When properly positioned in the tray in the vacuum chamber, each container is in fluid communication with a single respective filter assembly disposed in sealing relation in a respective aperture in the lid. A single actuation of a valve to place the vacuum chamber under vacuum causes the lid to seal to the base and drives the simultaneous filtration of a plurality of samples.
