Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of external transdermal drug delivery systems, incorporating a pump system and a transdermal delivery system.
- the system is integrated into a housing whose interior maintains the sterility of the fluidic, autonomous part which adheres to the abdomen or chest or other of the patient and delivers the substance to the patient via a cannula which is inserted into the patient subcutaneously,
- Medical treatment of many diseases requires continuous infusion of medication, through subcutaneous and intravenous injections, particularly for medications that contain large molecules that cannot be digested when administered orally, such as insulin, biological or biosimilar drugs
- Patients suffering from chronic illnesses such as immuno-oncology or requiring recurrent post-operative treatment require bolus injection of medications which are generally administered by healthcare personnel.
- the quantity of injections of these medications can vary from a few milliliters to several tens of milliliters.
- the flow rate being capped to be supported by the patient, the injection time increases proportionally with the volume injected and has a direct impact on the occupancy rate of the nursing staff.
- Automatic drug injection pumps have been developed to, on the one hand, free up healthcare personnel's time when administration via the pump must be supervised by trained personnel, and on the other hand, allow the patient to self-administer the medication safely thanks to an automatic system with simplified operation, allowing daily autonomy, drastically reducing the necessary frequency of visits to the hospital.
- Basal and/or bolus volumes should be administered in precise doses according to individual prescription. Therefore, drug injection pumps must have high reliability, ensuring the patient and caregivers the accuracy and correct monitoring of the dose administered.
- These pumps are also used for the injection of biological drugs, or anti-cancer active ingredients, requiring shorter injection times, from a few tens of minutes to a few hours, at lower intervals, weekly or monthly.
- the patient fills the reservoir with the active ingredient, for example from a vial also called a vial, attaches the needle and administration tube to the outlet of the reservoir, then inserts the reservoir into the housing of the pump. After purging the air from the reservoir, tube, and needle, the patient inserts the needle assembly, penetrating member, and cannula into a selected location on the body and removes the penetrating member. penetration. To avoid irritation and infection, the subcutaneous cannula should be replaced and discarded, with the reservoir empty.
- the active ingredient for example from a vial also called a vial
- the patient or caregiver uses an additional transfer station so that the contents of the vial are automatically transferred into the internal reservoir of the medical device.
- the user must generally successively connect the vial on one side (and the vial adapter if it is not already integrated into the transfer station) and the medical device on the other side, to the transfer station then start the transfer sequence.
- These devices have an internal energy source that powers the internal organs during the operation of injecting the medication into the patient. As these devices can be stored for long periods of time, it is crucial to preserve the energy source during this period and only power the system when appropriate.
- the key validation portion is configured to interact with a key portion of another component of the drug delivery device during assembly of the drug delivery device.
- the security part is configured to have a different impact if the key part matches the key validation part, compared to the case where the key part does not match the key part. key validation part.
- Patent application US2020023123 describes a drug delivery system and components thereof.
- the system may include an on-body pump device and a secondary unit.
- the body pump device may include a reservoir and a fluid path.
- the reservoir may be configured to contain liquid medication.
- the secondary unit can be removably coupled to the body pump device.
- the secondary unit may be configured to receive a pre-filled cartridge containing liquid medication, expel the liquid medication from the pre-filled cartridge, and deliver the liquid medication to the reservoir of the body pump device via the delivery path. fluid.
- It is a solution formed of two assembled parts, namely a pump device on the body 301 and a secondary unit 305, to form the injection arrangement, contrary to the invention. In addition, it never provides a room for receiving the mobile bottle.
- the reception room is formed by a fixed cavity.
- This solution is not compatible with fluidic communication via a vial. It requires a special bottle with a perforable bottom. This solution also requires drilling the bottom with two needles, one intended for the air
- Patent application US2020146938 describes a disposable fluid transfer and mixing device that includes an injector support surface for receiving an injection device thereon.
- a vial of freeze-dried medication, a vial of diluent, and a syringe are also attached to the device.
- the device includes fluid passages and a manual valve that can be manipulated such that the syringe can be used to transfer a diluent from the diluent vial to the lyophilized medication vial, for reconstitution of the medication.
- the valve may also be designed such that the reconstituted medication is transferred from the freeze-dried medication vial to the injection device.
- An automated transfer and mixing device receives an injection device, a lyophilized drug vial and a diluent vial and transfers the diluent from the diluent vial to the lyophilized drug vial and shakes or vibrates the lyophilized drug vial to reconstitute medication.
- Patent application US2020368447 describes a housing and an activation button assembly movably mounted thereon and capable of being moved from a non-actuated position to an actuated position.
- a cartridge door is configured to receive therein a cartridge containing a substance to be dispensed, and is movably mounted to the injector housing between open and closed positions.
- a deflectable interference member is mounted within the injector housing and, in a home position, blocks movement of the activation button assembly from the unactuated position to the actuated position of the activation button assembly. -this.
- the activation button assembly is configured to activate the injector when in the actuated position, and can be moved from the non-actuated position to the actuated position only upon deflection of the interference element off. from its rest position.
- the cartridge door when in its closed position with the cartridge accommodated therein, deflects the interference element out of its rest position.
- the devices known from the prior art propose to tension the device when removing the cover protecting the part of the device to be affixed to the patient and whose sterility must be ensured until the last moment.
- This solution is satisfactory in its context, but is incompatible with a removable vial device which potentially requires filling an internal reservoir before injection. Indeed, filling the internal tank is a slow operation which is carried out by a pumping mechanism which requires electrical power.
- the patient would be obliged to remove the cover to turn on the pumping system, to immediately apply the device to his skin and to wait for the pumping operation to complete before the The injection takes place. This results in unnecessary immobilization of the patient during an automatic operation for which their presence is not essential.
- the removable bottle devices known from the prior art do not offer solutions to avoid unintentional tensioning of the device by linking it to a crucial step and not subject to false manipulation. If the devices of the prior art make it possible to satisfactorily secure the step of filling the internal reservoir after insertion of the bottle, this is ensured by the use of sensors which must be powered. Thus, in this context, the prior art does not propose to guarantee the connection of the device to its energy source only during an essential step of the injection procedure and which cannot be triggered involuntarily.
- patent application US2013253427 describes a solution with a system for verifying the conformity of the bottle/device pair using an electromechanical coding system. This solution implies that the electronic circuit must first be switched on before being able to exploit the signals provided by these indexes. Like other solutions of the prior art, the risk of untimely electricity consumption exists, with the consequence of a reduction in the lifespan and the duration of autonomy.
- the present invention relates, in its most general sense, to a transdermal drug administration device having the technical characteristics set out in claim 1.
- the movable connecting part is also intended to receive the reservoir in the form of a removable bottle relative to the transdermal drug administration device, the movable connecting part being moved according to said at least one degree of freedom, upon receipt of said tank.
- connection of the tank to the movable connecting part is carried out via an adapter part, previously connected to the tank, the movable connecting part and the adapter part having complementary central tubes fitting together to make a watertight connection.
- the complementary central tubes can make the watertight connection by conical fitting.
- the conical fitting made by the complementary central tubes can be of the “luer” type.
- the movement stroke of the movable connecting part has a notch at the end of the stroke to lock the movable connecting part in the final position, the notch requiring an additional torque to be passed and reach the final position, the switch being activated in the final position.
- the excess torque required to pass the notch, and reach the final position of movement of the movable connecting part is greater than the nominal tightening torque of the screwing of the adapter part with the movable connecting part, making it possible to guarantee the tightness of the fitting of the central tubes.
- the movable connecting part has a cylindrical body provided with a thread
- the adapter part having a hollow cylindrical protuberance in which the central tubing extends, said hollow cylindrical protuberance having on its internal surface a thread cooperating with tapping to ensure the tight fitting of the central pipes by screwing the adapter part with the movable connecting part, the tightness being guaranteed beyond a nominal tightening torque of the screwing.
- said degree of freedom of the movable connecting part to activate the switch can be a degree of freedom in rotation produced by guiding the movable connecting part in the lower casing of the housing, the travel of movement of the part of movable connection being angular, and in that the movable connection part has a partial annular protuberance extending axially the cylindrical body over a limited angular portion, said partial annular protuberance being capable, at the end of the stroke, of activating the switch located in radial proximity of the movable connecting part.
- the travel of the movable connecting part is covered by the rotational movement leading to the screwing of the adapter part with the movable connecting part.
- the movable connecting part has two cylindrical axial protuberances extending from the cylindrical body, these axial protuberances extending into the lower casing of the housing and simultaneously abutting against the beads during the course of the travel of movement of the movable connecting part, the beads being protrusions of flexible beams secured to the lower casing, the abutment position of the axial protuberances against the beads being able to be exceeded by elastic deformation of the flexible beams, being elastically deformable, to reach the final position movement of the movable connecting part, said notch thus being produced by the elastic deformation of the flexible beams.
- screwing the adapter part with the movable connecting part can be carried out by the user.
- the deformation and relaxation of the flexible beams during the application of excess torque by the user to pass the notch, provides haptic information indicating the activation of the switch and therefore of the device.
- the movable connecting part has a radial protuberance and a partial annular protuberance, the final position of the movable connecting part being achieved by bringing said radial protuberance and the partial annular protuberance into contact respectively against stops complementary to the lower housing casing.
- the movable connecting part is provided with a hollow needle connected to a flexible tube, said hollow needle being able to be inserted into the reservoir during a movement of translation of the movable connecting part to reach a final state.
- the movable connecting part does not have a degree of freedom in translation, but only a degree of freedom in translation, and in that the spring is in a compressed state.
- a first rotational movement of the movable connecting part is carried out by a mechanical action of the patient to bring the movable connecting part into an intermediate state for which it acquires the degree of freedom in translation allowing the insertion of the hollow needle in the reservoir.
- Figures 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 illustrate a first embodiment of the locking device of the needle insertion mechanism according to the invention, the representing the needle insertion mechanism alone, as described in international patent application WO2018141697A1.
- Figures 2 and 3 show the needle locking and insertion mechanism in a top view, the representing the device in the initial state, which we call “armed”, and the showing the mechanism after triggering and inserting the needle.
- the injection system (100) notably comprises a needle insertion mechanism composed of a cam element (101), and illustrated in more detail in with a partial sectional view.
- This cam element (101) has a rib (103) whose advantageous profile cooperates with protuberances (111, 112) of a needle support (121) and a cannula support (124) allowing insertion of the needle (120) and the flexible cannula (122), then removing the needle (120) alone, in a rotational movement of less than 360° of the cam element (101).
- the cannula support (124) has a conduit making it possible to accommodate the tube (130) conveying the fluid to be injected through the cannula (122), this conduit being connected to the cannula (122) by an internal cavity (125) .
- Insertion of the needle (120) and cannula (122) is guided by a through hole (108) in the lower casing (107) of the housing.
- the rotational movement of the cam element (101) is induced by a spiral spring (102), preloaded in the initial state, the cam element (101) being held in position by a locking system (110) described more particularly by Figures 2, 3, 4 and 5.
- the sequence of insertion of the needle (120) is triggered by a release of the locking system (110), allowing the free rotation of the cam element ( 101) and therefore the insertion of the needle (120) thanks to the discharge of the spring (102).
- this sequence of movement is irreversible and that upon its completion, the spring (102) is in the discharged state and opposes the movement of the cam (101) in the direction opposite to that traveled for the insertion of the needle (120) and the cannula (122).
- the needle (120) once the sequence is completed, is retracted inside the medical device and cannot be deployed again, leaving the device in a state avoiding any risk of injury to the user.
- the use of a retractable needle (120) housed within a flexible cannula (122) is not limiting to the invention and is especially useful for guaranteeing the sterility of the fluid conduit as long as the needle is located at the breast of the cannula. Those skilled in the art could easily imagine other alternatives for creating the fluid interface between the device and the patient.
- the locking device comprises a translation element (104) and a rotating element (105) both guided by the lower casing (107) of the housing in respective translation and rotation movements.
- the translation element (104) has an arm (140), the distal end of which bears on a lateral surface (109) of the cam element (101), more visible on the , and the proximal end rests on a surface (150) of the rotation element (105), and an elastic projection (142) ensuring that the locking device (110) is maintained in its final position after triggering, by cooperation with the groove (172) of the lower casing (107) of the housing.
- Said rotation element (105) has an opposite surface (151) to said surface (150), this opposite surface (151) resting on a protuberance of the lower casing (107) of the housing.
- the cooperation of the translation element (104) and the rotation element (105) makes it possible to transmit the entire preload force of the spiral spring (102), exerted on the cam ( 101), directly to the lower casing (107) of the housing, thus preventing any possible movement.
- This also makes it possible to ensure a longer lifespan of the system during a storage period; the use of a direct transfer of forces by the housing makes it possible to avoid a risk of creep of the parts.
- the locking device (110) can be released by moving the rotation element (105).
- Said rotation element (105) has a body (152) provided with a lever arm (153) ensuring rotational guidance of said body (152) around the axis (154). Rotation of the rotation element (105) induces sliding of the surface (150) and the opposite surface (151) on the opposite surfaces (141, 174) belonging respectively to the element translation (104) and the lower casing (107) of the housing.
- the locking mechanism (110) is released and the translation element (104) performs a translation movement induced by the preload force of the spiral spring (102).
- the arcuate profile (143) of the elastic protrusion (142) slides along the grooves (171, 172) of the housing, causing a movement of the end of the elastic protrusion orthogonal to the translation movement of the translation element.
- the translation element (104) When the apex (144) of the arcuate profile (143) exceeds the separation (175) between the two grooves (171, 172), the translation element (104) is no longer in contact with the cam (101), but the translation movement continues along the groove (172) thanks to the release of the elastic energy accumulated by the elastic protrusion (142) during its movement along the first groove (171), to finally arrive at the position of stable equilibrium presented in .
- the lower surface (145) of the translation element (104) slides on an upper surface (155) of the rotation element (105) so as to impose a movement of said rotation element (105) until it abuts against a protuberance (173) of the lower casing (107) of the housing.
- the complementary profile of the surfaces (145, 155) advantageously allows the continuity of the translation of the translation element (104) following this abutment, while making it possible to block the rotational movement opposite to the abutment in the final position such as presented in .
- the elastic protrusion makes it possible, after release of the locking device, to ensure a final safety position for which the immobilization of the translation element (104) and the rotation element (105) is ensured even in the event of sudden movement or impact on the medical device.
- the translation element (104) and the rotation element (105) are held in position by the friction of the surface (150) and the opposite surface (151). ) respectively on the surfaces (141, 174).
- Rotation of the rotation element (105) and therefore release of the locking device is achieved by pressing the end of the pump piston (205) on a circular surface (156) of the lever arm ( 153).
- this support is obtained on an extreme part of the movement stroke of the pump piston (205), this advantageously allowing the pumping function to be carried out before the release of the locking device, allowing for example to be able to transfer the fluid to be injected from an external reservoir to an internal reservoir before placing the device on the patient.
- the stroke of the pump piston can easily be limited in software.
- the pump piston (205) can benefit from the entire stroke for the pumping function and thus increase, for each pump cycle, the volume transferred from the internal reservoir to the patient.
- the pump piston (205) only ensures the rotational movement of the rotation element (105) until the locking mechanism (110) is released, as described previously. In order to ensure the free movement of the piston on this extreme stroke, it is necessary, after release of the locking device (110), to maintain the rotation element (105) in the safety position as permitted here by its cooperation with the translation element (104).
- FIG. 1 One embodiment of the pump system (200) can be appreciated with reference to Figures 6 to 10.
- The represents the pump system (200) integrated in the lower casing (107), connected to the reservoir (203) of fluid to be extracted and to the internal reservoir (215).
- Figures 10a to 10d highlight the geometry of the three ports (21, 212, 213) of the pump body (201) and their advantage compared to those used in international patent application WO2018141697A1.
- the pump is composed of a pump body (201) and two pistons, a pump piston (205) and a valve piston (202), defining between them an internal cavity (208) of variable volume.
- These two pistons are respectively secured to a rack (248, 258) which can be set in axial movement by a drive system (240, 250) composed of a mechanical movement reducer (241, 251), whose input is coupled to an electric motor (242, 252).
- Fluid transfer within the internal cavity (208) is possible by the cooperation of multiple ports (211, 212, 213) with an internal channel (209) of the valve piston (202) opening at one end into the internal cavity (208) and terminated by an orifice (221) at its other end.
- the precise axial positioning of the valve piston (202) allows one of the ports (211, 212, 213) to selectively cooperate with the orifice (221) of the pump.
- the port (211) is connected to the reservoir (203) of fluid to be extracted, for example a bottle
- the port (212) is an outlet port and is connected to the injection system
- the port (213) is connected to the internal reservoir (215) of the medical device.
- Port (211) and port (213) can alternately serve as an input port or an output port.
- outlet port of the pump is meant a port from which the fluid circulates exclusively so as to leave the internal cavity (208) of the pump.
- the valve piston (202) and the pump piston (205) are in frontal contact or have a small distance apart, so that the internal cavity (208) has a small air volume.
- Two injection sequences are preferred without being limiting to the invention. Either with use of the internal tank or by direct injection.
- the pump system (200) may be used for drug reconstitution functions, for example to reconstitute a lyophilized drug and a diluent.
- the internal reservoir (215) could then be a cartridge pre-filled with a diluent, and a pump sequence could be performed to transfer this diluent to a reservoir (203) containing lyophilized medication to dissolve it.
- the reverse transfer, from the reservoir (203) to the internal reservoir (215) is carried out in order to inject it into the patient subsequently. It is also conceivable to carry out several successive transfers, partial or total, between the reservoir (203) and the internal reservoir, this being able to facilitate the dissolution of the lyophilized medication in the diluent.
- the ports (211, 212, 213) are arranged in a staggered manner, the ports (211 and 213) being in the same longitudinal plane, the port (212) being offset radially and being located axially between the two ports (211 and 213 ).
- This staggered configuration is particularly advantageous for limiting the stroke necessary for the valve piston (202) to select one of the ports (211, 212, 213), this procedure having to be repeated several times during an injection cycle, the axial rimpedement of the ports (211, 212, 213) has a direct influence on the durability of the battery (260) and therefore affects the overall efficiency of the device.
- FIGS. 8 and 9 highlight one of these improvements.
- the staggered arrangement of the ports (211, 212, 213) results in a tangential misalignment of these holes relative to the orifice (221) of the valve piston (202).
- the orifice (211) of the valve piston (202) has on either side a tangential flare (223, 224) of its radial end facing each other.
- -port screws (211, 212, 213) are delimited by tangential beads (225, 226) and axial beads (227, 228) made from a flexible and deformable material, such as a silicone or a flexible thermoplastic, in order to match the cylindrical interior surface of the body. pump (201) and ensure sealing.
- the valve piston has a hard core (230), in which the internal conduit (209) connected to the orifice (221) is made, this hard core (230) being overmolded by an elastomer (229) to form the tangential flares (223, 224).
- a hard core in which the internal conduit (209) connected to the orifice (221) is made, this hard core (230) being overmolded by an elastomer (229) to form the tangential flares (223, 224).
- the valve body in radial section, this section not being made in the same axial plane for the left and right halves, but along two half-planes located respectively at the level of the middle of the port (212) and the port (213 ).
- This section makes it possible to visualize the good correspondence between the tangential flares (223, 224) and the ports (212, 213) offset tangentially with respect to the orifice (221) of the valve piston (202).
- the ports (211, 212, 213) of the pump body (205) are extended by clearances (231 , 232, 233) conical allowing coupling with the flexible cylindrical tubes (261, 262, 263), visible in , connecting elements of the fluidic system while ensuring radial stopping of these tubes thanks to a shoulder (220, 222). Consequently, the diameter of the ports (211, 212, 213) must be less than the external diameter of the flexible tubing and ideally greater than the internal diameter of the flexible tubing so as not to limit the flow. If the shoulder makes it possible to secure the mechanical assembly, it is nevertheless not necessary for it to be present over the entire circular periphery of the flexible tubing.
- the ports (211, 212, 213) can advantageously have an oblong periphery to increase the section opposite the orifice of the valve piston (202) while ensuring a mechanical stop for the flexible tubing .
- oblong periphery we mean that the section of the ports (211, 212, 213), as presented in the , is not discal but has a different length depending on the axial and tangential directions.
- the section is a groove in the tangential direction, ending in two half-cylinders.
- the invention is not limited to this type of shape, but includes any type of elongated section, such as a rectangle or an ellipse.
- the long length is not limited to the tangential direction, but can also be achieved in the radial direction and will be chosen according to the arrangement of the ports (211, 212, 213).
- Figure 10 illustrates different scenarios for positioning the valve piston (202), subfigures a and b representing the case of an orifice (221) and a port (211) both with disc section, as produced in patent application WO2018141697A1.
- Subfigure a represents a cylindrical port (211) having a section of for a diameter of and being perfectly aligned with an identical orifice (221), the fluid passage section is represented by hatching.
- the sub-figure figure b represents the evolution of the hatched passage section when there is an axial misalignment between the orifice (221) and the port (211), it can be noted that an offset of results in a remaining passage section of , a reduction of more than 35%.
- the oblong shape of the port (211) according to the invention is presented in subfigures c and d, it makes it possible to offer a fluid passage section of in the same axial dimensions when combined with an identical orifice or with a disc orifice having a tangential flare as shown.
- Subfigure d represents the evolution of the hatched passage section during poor axial positioning of the pump. We will note that for a shift of , the section then decreases to leave a passage of . It will also be noted that up to an axial offset of , i.e. a passage section of the passage section remains greater than or equal to that obtained for a port with a disc section of the same axial size.
- the shape of the present invention makes it possible to ensure a fluid passage section equivalent to the cylindrical shape of a tube with ⁇ as carried out in the prior art.
- the shape of the present invention therefore makes it possible to have precise positioning at without having an impact on the pressure losses in said system.
- the invention is not limited to an oblong shape, but can be extended to any shape making it possible to increase the fluid passage section while ensuring the radial stopping of the tubing connected to the pump body.
- the medical device is able to interface with an external reservoir (203), such as a bottle.
- an external reservoir (203) such as a bottle.
- the bottle must be coupled to an adapter part (311) intended to be inserted into a movable connecting part (308) of the medical device, having complementary shapes.
- the adapter part (311) has a hollow needle (315) intended to pierce the septum of the reservoir (2203), or bottle, and take the fluid contained therein, the hollow needle (315) being connected to a central channel of the adapter piece (311).
- Activation of the medical device is obtained by inserting said adapter part (311) into the movable connecting part (308).
- the adapter part (311) and the movable connection part (308) can be screwed into each other so as to make central tubes (320, 321) complementary to one and the other cooperate. other parts so as to provide a sealed flow channel for conveying the fluid between the bottle and the medical device.
- the central tubes (320, 321) cooperate by conical fitting and produce a luer type connection, but the invention extends to any type of connection compatible with medical applications.
- the torque exerted by the adapter part (311) on the movable connection part (308) causes the latter to rotate in order to activate the system electronic (310) and authorize the transfer of the drug to the internal reservoir as described in international patent application WO2018141697A1.
- the user can disconnect the adapter part (311) by unscrewing it, this movement then returning the movable connecting part (308) to its initial position and simultaneously deactivating the electronic system (310).
- the user can be informed about the state of the medical device by haptic or visual signals, such as vibrations or the power supply of LEDs.
- haptic or visual signals such as vibrations or the power supply of LEDs.
- the triggering of said signals can be directly activated by user actions on the device.
- Figures 11 to 13 represent the fluidic system (300) isolated from an exemplary embodiment according to the invention.
- Figures 11 and 13 being perspective views showing the different stages of connection of an external reservoir (203), the showing an exploded view of the different unconnected elements, the showing the connection of the tank (203) to the adapter part (311) and the showing the connection of the reservoir assembly (203) and adapter part (311) to the movable connection part (308).
- These different figures also show the other constituents of the fluidic system, namely the fluidic part of the pump system (200), the internal reservoir (215) and the needle support (121) of the injection system, these different elements being connected by flexible tubing, one end of which is inserted into clearances (231, 233) of the pump body (201).
- Fluid is directed to either element through the movements of the valve piston (202) and pump piston (205) described in this application.
- a hollow needle (315) intended to pierce the septum of the external reservoir to make a watertight connection between said external reservoir (203) and the piping of the fluidic system (300).
- the assembly shown in is obtained, from the , following the screwing of the adapter part (311) and the movable connecting part (308) by cooperation of a thread (331) and a tapping (330).
- FIG. 31 There shows a sectional view of the adapter part (311) and the movable connection part (308) before assembly, in order to better visualize the fluid connection between these parts and their connection.
- the complementary central tubes (320, 321) belonging respectively to the adapter part (311) and to the movable connection part (308) make it possible to ensure the connection of the fluidic outlet port (313) of the adapter part ( 311) to the entry port (387) of the movable connection part (308).
- the hollow needle (315), of the adapter part (311) has an internal channel ending in the outlet port (313) opening into the central tube (320).
- the movable connecting part (308) is formed of a cylindrical body (341) having a cavity opening axially into which the central tube (321) opens, the internal cylindrical surface of the cavity having the thread (330) cooperating with the thread (331) of the adapter part (311).
- the movable connecting part (308) has a hollow axial protuberance (386) with a slightly conical periphery so as to be able to easily fit into a flexible tubing, to ensure the transfer of the fluid to the pump body .
- the movable connecting part is thus crossed axially by a conduit opening on the one hand, onto the inlet port (387) at an axial end of the central tube (321), and on the other hand, onto an outlet port (388) located at the end of the axial protrusion (386).
- the central tubes (320, 321) have an advantageously conical shape, known as a "luer taper", allowing a tight coupling, in compliance with the ISO 80369 standard, when sufficient contact force is ensured.
- the fitting of the complementary central tubes (320, 321) and the application of force necessary for sealing are ensured thanks to the cooperation of a thread (331) complementary to a tapping (330), respectively produced in the protuberance hollow cylindrical part (340) of the adapter part (311) and in the cylindrical body (341) of the movable connecting part (308), surrounding the central tubes (320, 321).
- a thread (331) complementary to a tapping (330) respectively produced in the protuberance hollow cylindrical part (340) of the adapter part (311) and in the cylindrical body (341) of the movable connecting part (308), surrounding the central tubes (320, 321).
- these axial protuberances (381, 382) are located radially on either side of the axial protuberance (386) and are intended to extend into the lower casing (107) of the housing, so as to cooperate with an elastically deformable part, to ensure maintenance of the final angular position of the movable connecting part.
- Said final angular position is obtained by the abutment of a radial protuberance (383), extending radially from the lower axial end of the cylindrical body (341), against a complementary abutment of the lower casing of the housing.
- a partial annular protuberance (384) extending axially the cylindrical body (341) over a limited angular portion.
- This partial annular protuberance (384) is called activation arm and makes it possible to engage or release the activation switch of the medical device depending on the angular position of the movable connecting part (308).
- the partial annular protuberance (384) also has a cylindrical interior surface concentric with a cylindrical protrusion of the lower casing of the housing, in order to ensure rotational guidance of the movable connecting part (308).
- Figures 16 and 18 show the movable connection part (308) installed in the lower casing (9) of the housing in its initial state, that is to say before the insertion of the tank equipped with its adapter part. There showing an axial incidence view and the showing a sectional view, at the level of the axial protuberances (381, 382), according to the same incidence.
- the adapter part (311) inserts axially into the movable connection part (308), the movable connection part remaining fixed, until the central tubes are in coaxial contact so as to generate a jamming.
- the partial annular protuberance (384) When the movable connecting part (308) rotates, the partial annular protuberance (384) will press against the lever of the switch (390) for activating the medical device arranged on the electronic system (310).
- the deformation torque necessary to rotate the movable connecting part (308) is greater than the minimum torque necessary to guarantee the tightness of the connection according to the ISO 80369 standard. This deformation serves as haptic feedback to the user in order to notify him of the successful completion of the installation of the reservoir (203) and the activation of the medical device.
- the final angular position is not irreversible. If the user applies a torque of amplitude identical to that deployed for activation of the device, but in the opposite direction, the flexible beams (922, 923) can again be elastically deformed by the axial protuberances (381, 382) , allowing the movable connecting part to perform a reverse rotation to return to the initial state presented in and 18. This operation is accompanied by the disarming of the switch (390) indicating to the medical device that the bottle is no longer engaged. The user has the option of continuing to unscrew the adapter part (311) to remove the tank (203).
- This activation system thus offers a function guaranteeing the user monitored and secure bottle insertion to limit any risk of misuse.
- the axial protuberances (381, 382) can be accommodated at the base (942, 943) of the flexible beams, causing a release of the elastic stress and the return of the free ends (932 , 933) in initial position.
- This configuration helps provide a hard point in the vial insertion procedure to provide haptic feedback to the user once the elastic release of the flexible beams (922, 923) is complete.
- This configuration is advantageous compared to the previous embodiment because it makes it possible to provide an asymmetry of the effort necessary to screw the bottle, of the effort necessary to unscrew it. In fact, the elastic deformation of beams is much easier when it is carried out from the base of the beam towards its end than the reverse.
- the curvature of the flexible beams (922, 923) and the profile of the surface of the free ends (932, 933) in contact with the axial protuberances it is possible to obtain screwing torques which are very different from the unscrewing torques, for example more than twice as high. This is particularly interesting to ensure perfect completion of the sequence of unscrewing the tank (203). Indeed, the screwing torque necessary to pass the hard point produced by the flexible beams is of an amplitude very close to that of the tightening torque of the adapter part (311) in the movable connection part (308).
- An unscrewing torque to pass the hard point of the same amplitude could cause the adapter part (311) to unscrew relative to the movable connecting part (308) before passing the hard point generated by the flexible beams, leaving the part mobile connection (308) in the final state and therefore the device activated while the tank is removed.
- the transdermal drug administration device is provided with an internal reservoir (203) only filled beforehand with the drug to be injected.
- the embodiment previously presented and provided with an external reservoir presents an operation of filling the internal reservoir which uses the pump system. This operation can be slow and time-consuming for medical staff, but can also be subject to handling errors. An alternative is therefore to do without these steps in order to offer the patient a device which already contains the appropriate medication and which minimizes the number of manipulations necessary.
- This device is first loaded by a qualified person and kept sterile until used by the patient. To limit the risk of contamination, the medication is stored in a sealed internal bottle until a hollow needle (315) penetrates through the septum of the reservoir.
- this hollow needle (315) is connected by flexible tubing (231) to the pump system (200), itself connected to the injection system (100) (not shown).
- This embodiment also presents a movable connecting part (308) allowing the fluid connection of the pump system (200) with the reservoir (203), and the powering of the electronic system (310) supplying said pump system (200).
- FIG. 22 represents the injection device seen from above and with the cover open, respectively in the initial and final positions of the activation procedure.
- Figures 23 and 25 represent the injection device seen from the side, perpendicular to the hollow needle (315), and with the cover open, respectively in the initial position and in an intermediate position of the activation procedure.
- the movable connecting part (308) is in the form of a cylindrical body (370) guided in a complementary guide support (940) secured to the lower casing (107) of the housing to allow a connection sliding pivot type.
- a connection sliding pivot type For this section, we will designate as proximal parts of the cylindrical body (370) and of the guide support (940) the regions directly facing the head of the reservoir (203), and as distal parts, the regions located on the opposite side, along an axis of cylindrical symmetry of the tank (203).
- the cylindrical body (370) is provided with an annular section to produce an internal cylindrical cavity (371) opening out at the distal end of the cylindrical body (370), this internal cylindrical cavity making it possible to accommodate a spring (350).
- the cylindrical body (370) is provided, at the proximal base of the annular section, with a leg (372) extending radially, said leg allowing, in the initial position, to achieve axial abutment against a support ( 941) of the guide support (940). Said stopping is necessary to prevent the release of the mechanical energy stored in said spring (350) compressed in the initial state.
- the spring (350) rests against a laminar protrusion (950) of the lower casing of the housing, the forces can also be taken up by the upper casing of the housing.
- the cylindrical body (370) has the shape of a dovetail (378) diametrically opposite said leg (372) and of the same axial extent, said dovetail (378) can also be placed in axial abutment against a second support (942) of the guide support (940) to achieve a second holding of the spring (350) in the compressed state, symmetrical radially of the first stop produced by the leg (372).
- a second support (942) of the guide support (940) to achieve a second holding of the spring (350) in the compressed state, symmetrical radially of the first stop produced by the leg (372).
- this symmetrization promotes the resilience of the movable connecting part (308) to creep and also allows to avoid bracing of the cylindrical body (370) in the guide support (940).
- the extractable part (360) has a cylindrical base (361) extended axially by a protuberance provided with a slot (362) into which a pin (373) located at the radial end of the leg (372) is inserted and 'extending axially in the distal direction.
- the light (362) has a cam profile (363) to guide a tangential movement of the radial end of the leg (372), during extraction of the extractable part (360), causing the body to rotate cylindrical (370).
- the angular developments of the dovetail (378) and the leg (372) are chosen so that both leave their support zone (941, 942) simultaneously, during the rotational movement imparted by the part extractable (360).
- the angular position for which the dovetail (378) and the leg (372) simultaneously leave their support zone (941, 942) is called intermediate position and is represented in .
- the lower casing (107) of the housing is lined with an adhesive membrane (365) covered with a cover (364) having a removal tab (367), this assembly protecting against any contamination of the area of the device affixed to the patient .
- the cover must be removed by the patient before use in order to affix and maintain the device on the skin using the adhesive membrane (365).
- the cylindrical base (361) of the extractable part (360) has a part emerging from the lower casing (107) of the housing which is fixed to the cover (364) of the adhesive membrane (365), so that when the patient removes the cover (364) of said adhesive membrane (365) the latter also causes the withdrawal of the extractable part (360) then putting the movable connecting part (308) into rotary movement.
- the mechanical connection between the cover (364) of my adhesive membrane (365) and the extractable part (360) can be achieved in multiple ways, and in particular thanks to the wedging of the cover (364) by riveting in the extractable part ( 360) using a cap (366).
- an O-ring (368) can be placed between the cylindrical base (361) and the opening of the lower casing (107).
- the guide support (940) also has a longitudinal groove (945) extending from its proximal end to its distal end.
- This longitudinal groove (945) has a width greater than that of the leg (372) and the dovetail (378), so that when both have left their support zone (941, 942) by the movement rotation printed by the extractable part (360), the cylindrical body (370) acquires an additional degree of freedom in translation in its axial direction.
- a translational movement of the cylindrical body (370) towards the reservoir (203) is then driven and constrained by the compressed spring (350), releasing its stored energy.
- the cylindrical body (370) also has a radial protrusion (375) extending from the end of the dovetail (378) to the proximal end of said cylindrical body (370), maintaining the The hollow needle (315) to allow it to expand in the proximal direction.
- the hollow needle (315) can, for example, be held in the movable connecting part (308) by an overmolding process, the adapter part being able to be made by plastic injection, but this is not however limiting to the invention.
- this radial protrusion (375) also projects from the longitudinal groove (945) of the guide support (940) and has an angular expansion sufficiently limited so as not to hinder the rotational movement of the cylindrical body (370) printed by the extractable part (360).
- the translation movement of the cylindrical body (370) generated by the relaxation of the spring (350) imposes the penetration of the hollow needle (315) into the reservoir (203) through its septum and therefore the fluid connection of the reservoir (203). ) with the pump system (200).
- the hollow needle (315) is not collinear with the axis of symmetry of the reservoir (203) and it is only following the completion of the first rotational movement to allow the relaxation of the spring, that this alignment is obtained.
- the spring is judiciously chosen to be able to pierce the septum with sufficient dynamics and possibly another sterilization membrane (not shown).
- the radial protrusion (375) of the cylindrical body (370) has at its distal end a tab (376) of bent shape, the end of this tab activating the switch (390) to power on the electronic system (310), the activation of said switch taking place at the end of axial movement of the cylindrical body (370) produced by relaxation of the spring (350).
- the movable connecting part (308) ensures the fluid connection of the reservoir (203) with the pump system (200) and the powering of the transdermal drug injection device, in a single operation, this operation being induced by the intentional removal of the cover by the patient for the purpose of using the medical device. This combination wisely limits any risk of mishandling and eliminates any risk of contamination until use.
- the adhesive membrane (365) has a multiplicity of tabs (364) to facilitate its gripping and removal by the patient.
