Definitions

  • Illustrative embodiments relate generally to an injection module with an integrated manifold that allows filling a fluid delivery' device reservoir directly from a primary container and for large volume manual direct injection.
  • Bolus and/or infusion pump therapy generally requires an infusion cannula, typically in the form of an infusion needle or a flexible catheter, that pierces the patient's skin and through which infusion of a medicament takes place.
  • Infusion pump therapy offers the advantages of continuous infusion, precision dosing, and programmable delivery schedules.
  • the infusion set consists of a pump connector, a length of tubing, and a hub or base from which a cannula, in the form of a hollow metal infusion needle or flexible plastic catheter extends.
  • the base typically has an adhesive that retains the base on the skin surface during use.
  • the cannula can be inserted onto the skin manually or with the aid of a manual or automatic insertion device.
  • the insertion device may be a separate unit required by the user.
  • a patch pump is an integrated device that combines most or all of the fluidic components, including the fluid reservoir, pumping mechanism and mechanism for automatically inserting the cannula, in a single housing which is adhesively attached to an infusion site on the patient's skin, and does not require the use of a separate infusion or tubing set.
  • a patch pump containing a medicament adheres to the patient’s skin and delivers the medicament over a period of time or at a selected time via an integrated subcutaneous cannula.
  • Some patch pumps may wirelessly communicate with a separate controller device, while others are completely self-contained. Such devices can be replaced on a frequent basis, such as every three days, when the medicament reservoir is exhausted or when complications may otherwise occur, such as restriction in the cannula or the infusion site.
  • patch pumps are designed to be a self-contained unit that is worn by the user (e.g., patient), it is preferable to be as small as possible so that it does not interfere with the activities of the user. Thus, in order to minimize discomfort to the user, it would be preferable to minimize the overall thickness of the patch pump. However, in order to minimize the thickness of the patch pump, the constituent parts of the patch pump should be reduced in size and possibly in number as much as possible.
  • Some patch pumps can be designed with reservoirs that are integrated as opposed to a patch pump in which a pre-fdled cartridge is inserted into the patch pump housing.

  • the catheter 94 and the manifold 70 can be glued together on the internal diameter of the manifold 70, or the catheter 94 can be assembled on a a wedge (e.g., a metallic part) to secure internal diameter of the catheter, and the wedge is coupled to the manifold 70 via gluing or stamping or other method.
  • the connections between the wedge and manifold and between the wedge and catheter are tight.
  • the insertion mechanism 80 described and illustrated herein in accordance with an example embodiment advantageously combines a catheter insertion mechanism with a manifold 70 in order to reduce user steps. It is also a compaction in space of generally two subsystems, that is, a manifold and a catheter insertion mechanism. It is of interest to reduce space of a fluid delivery device (e.g., device 10) that needs to integrate these functions.
  • the manifold 70 allows automatic filling of a reservoir 28 in a fluid delivery device 10 using a monodirectional pump and filling directly from the primary container 60 when insertion mechanism 80 is in a first position (e.g., the button 82 is undeployed as shown in FIGs.
  • the insertion mechanism 80 therefore employs a relatively simple translation and monostable operation to switch from a storage and filling stage to an injection stage of use.
  • the insertion mechanism 80 constructed in accordance with example embodiments of the present disclosure is also advantageous because the insertion mechanism 80 reduces dead volume of fluid in the fluid channels between the reservoir 28, pump 38 and catheter 94, as compared with fluid volume that can exist in the baseplate fluid channels, and the flexible tube deployed from a downstream point in the fluid path from the pump to the insertion mechanism, as described in PCT international applications WO 2015/164653 and WO2015157174, for example. Also, the manifold 70 allows automatic switching of the direction of the fluid to or from the reservoir 28 when an operator pushes on the button 82 to begin an injection as illustrated by the pathways 72 in FIG. 7B as compared with FIG. 8B.

Abstract

Un mécanisme d'injection pour un dispositif de distribution de fluide comprend un collecteur conçu pour coopérer avec un bouton pour une mise en prise coulissante à l'intérieur d'un cadre. Le collecteur et le cadre ont des ouvertures pour une connexion fluidique sélective à d'autres composants associés au dispositif de distribution de fluide tel qu'une pompe monodirectionnelle, un réservoir et un récipient primaire pour stocker un fluide utilisé pour compléter le réservoir. Certaines ouvertures de collecteur ont un canal de fluide relié entre elles. Au moins une ouverture de collecteur comporte un canal de fluide relié entre elle et un canal de fluide d'une aiguille ou d'un cathéter qui est inséré dans un patient. Les ouvertures de collecteur sont agencées le long du collecteur de telle sorte qu'un sous-ensemble des ouvertures de collecteur est aligné avec les ouvertures de cadre lorsque le bouton est dans une première position, et un sous-ensemble différent des ouvertures de collecteur est aligné avec les ouvertures de cadre lorsque le bouton est dans une seconde position.
