    Abstract: A connector device (10) is disclosed for establishing fluid communication between a diluent container (12) having sidewalls and a drug vial (14). The connector (10) has a piercing member (51) having a first end (52) and a second end (53) and a central fluid pathway (54). The piercing member (51) is mounted to the liquid container (12) and has fluid accessing portions hermetically sealed from an outside environment. A vial receiving chamber is associated with the piercing member (51) and is dimensioned to connect to the vial (14). The vial (14) may be selectively attached to the device (10) without piercing the closure (22) of the vial (14) and without breaching the hermetic seal of the fluid accessing portions of the piercing member (51). Means are provided for connecting the vial receiving chamber to the liquid container (12). The device (10) is movable from an inactivated position, where the piercing member (51) is outside the sidewalls and no fluid flows between the liquid container (12) and the drug vial (14), to an activated position, where fluid flows through the fluid pathway (54) between the liquid container (12) and the drug vial (14). The device (10) is movable from the inactivated position to the activated position by a force applied to the device (10) outside the liquid container (12).

    Abstract: An improved drug delivery system and method for reconstitutings drugs. The system allows the delivery of a medicament from a drug vial (40) directly into an intravenous line to a patient. The system provides a method and apparatus that insures that the drug vial is properly pierced and the vial is locked into an activated position when it is desired to use same. To this end, a vial retaining member (50) for coupling the vial to a cartridge (12) including a cannula (22) is provided. The retaining member includes a cannula centering member (64) extending from an end thereof.

    Abstract: The present invention provides an improved cannula that can be used to reconstitute powdered drugs in a drug delivery system. Furthermore, the present invention provides a cannula and drug delivery system incorporating same. To this end, the present invention provides a cannula structure for use in a reconstitution device for reconstituting a powdered drug comprising a cannula having a first end and a second end, and defining a channel in an interior thereof between the first and second ends. The first end is closed and includes a member for piercing a septum. The cannula includes at least two slots providing fluid communication between the channel and an exterior of the cannula. The slots are located in juxtaposition to the first end and have a width, as measured along a length of the cannula, that is less than a length, as measured around the cannula. The slots also have a minimum projected area equal to or greater than the cross-sectional area of the channel.

    Abstract: An apparatus (60) and system (20) are disclosed for the patient-controlled delivery of an analgesic or other beneficial agent 142, while preventing administration of a toxic quantity of the beneficial agent. The invention permits delivery of fractional doses to a patient in quantities which are directly proportional to the time period since the last dose or fraction thereof was delivered to the patient. In the preferred embodiments the apparatus includes a housing (58) including a casing (88) and a back plate (86), the housing containing a control switch (84) for opening and closing downstream conduit (62) and for depressing a floating plate (100) that thereby compresses a dose reservoir (90) with the beneficial agent (142) therein. A spring (124) biases the control switch (84).
