The foregoing applications are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety.
[0002] The present invention generally relates to injection systems, devices, and processes for facilitating various levels of control over fluid injection, and more particularly, to systems and methods related to safety syringes in a medical environment.
Background Art
[0003] Numerous syringes, such as those shown in Figure 1A(2), are consumed daily in the healthcare setting. A typical syringe (2) comprises a tubular body (4), a plunger (6), and a needle (8). As shown in Figure 1B, such syringes (2) can be used not only to inject fluids into patients but also to draw or release fluids from or into containers such as drug bottles, vials, bags, or other drug containment systems (10). In fact, due to regulatory constraints in some countries, such as the United States, and concerns about maintaining sterility, when drug bottles (10) are used with syringes (2) as seen in certain patient settings, such drug bottles may have to be discarded after use for only a single patient, generating medical waste from the bottles and remaining medication, and further contributing to the regular shortage of certain essential drugs. Referring to Figure 2A, three Luer syringes (12) are shown, each having a distally positioned Luer-fit geometry (14) so that they can be connected to other devices having similar fitting geometry, such as the Luer manifold assembly (16) shown in Figure 2B. The Luer-fit (14) of the syringe in Figure 2A may be called the "male" Luer-fit, while the one in Figure 2B (18) may be called the "female" Luer-fit. One of the Luer-fits may have threads (in which case this configuration may be called a "Luer-lock" configuration), so that the two sides can be connected by relative rotation, which may be combined with compressive load. In other words, in one embodiment of the Luer-lock, rotation may be used in conjunction with compression to engage the threads into the male-fit, which in turn engages its flange onto the female-fit, bringing the devices together into a fluid-seal connection. In another embodiment, a tapered joint geometry may be used to provide a compression-based Luer engagement without threads or rotation (such a configuration may be referred to as a “slip-on” or “conical” Luer configuration). While such Luer connections are considered relatively safe for the operator, there is a risk of drug spillage / leakage and breakage of the components under load to provide the Luer connection. On the other hand, the use of needle injection configurations carries the risk of the sharp needle coming into contact with or piercing a person or undesirable structure.For this reason, so-called "safety syringes" were developed.
[0004] One embodiment of the safety syringe (20) is shown in Figure 3, in which a tubular shielding member (22) is spring-driven to cover the needle (8) when released from the locked position relative to the syringe body (4). Another embodiment of the safety syringe (24) is shown in Figures 4A-4B. In this configuration, after the plunger (6) is fully inserted into the syringe body (4), the retractable needle (26) is configured to retract (28, 26) back into a safe position within the tubular body (4), as shown in Figure 4B. Such a configuration, which is configured to collapse on its own, may be associated with problems of blood splashing / aerosolization, safe storage of preload energy that could malfunction and start before the desired time, reduced accuracy in administering the total dose due to residual dead space in the spring compression volume, and / or reduced retraction speed control which may be associated with pain and patient anxiety.
[0005] Further complicating the syringe market is the increasing demand for pre-filled syringe assemblies, such as those shown in Figures 5A and 5B, which generally comprise a syringe body or "drug containment and delivery system" (34), a plunger tip, plug, or stopper (36), and a distal seal or cap (35) that can be fitted onto a Luer connector (Figure 5A shows the cap 35 in position, and Figure 5B illustrates the Luer connector 14 with the cap removed). The drug solution may reside in the volume between the distal seal and the distal end (37) of the plunger tip (36) or in the drug storage section (40). The plunger tip (36) may include a standard butyl rubber material and may be coated with a biocompatible smooth coating or the like to facilitate a preferred seal and relative movement to the associated syringe body structure and materials. The proximal end of the syringe body (34) in Figure 5B includes a conventional syringe flange (38), such as one known as a "Gerresheimer" flange configuration. The syringe body (34) preferably comprises a translucent material such as glass or polymer. The plunger tip (36) may be positioned within the syringe body (34) to form a volume within the drug chamber or storage section (40) and to facilitate the discharge of the associated fluid through the needle. The syringe body may define a substantially cylindrical shape (i.e., so that the plunger tip 36 having a circular cross-sectional shape can establish a seal with the syringe body), or it may be configured to have other cross-sectional shapes such as an ellipse.
[0006] Such assemblies are desirable because they can be standardized and manufactured in precise volumes by a small number of manufacturers worldwide, ensuring they meet all the ever-changing global regulations regarding filling, packaging, and the selection of pharmaceutical / drug bonding materials and component use. However, such simple configurations will generally not meet the emerging global standards for single use, safety, auto-deactivation, and needle-stick resistance. For this reason, some suppliers have moved to more “longitudinal” solutions, such as (41) discussed in Figure 5C, attempting to meet all or at least some of the standards with a single solution, and as a result of attempting to meet these standards for many different scenarios, such products may have significant limitations (including some of those mentioned above with reference to Figures 3-4B), relatively high inventory, and utilization costs.
[0007] An improved injection system is needed that addresses the shortcomings of currently available configurations. In particular, a safety syringe solution is needed that can utilize the existing and relatively well-controlled supply chain of conventionally delivered pre-filled syringe assemblies, such as those described with reference to Figures 5A-5B.
