Abstract
Device containers, such as therapeutic kit containers, are disclosed. In one embodiment, a device container comprises a first member configured to releasably hold a syringe barrel, a second member configured to releasably hold a vial, wherein the second member is coupled to the first member by a first hinge, and a third member configured to releasably hold a vial adapter, wherein the third member is coupled to the second member by a second hinge.
Claims18
A method of preparing a syringe assembly for administration of a therapeutic liquid, comprising:
- manually manipulating a therapeutic kit container comprised of a first member comprising an inner surface and an outer surface, a second member comprising an inner surface and an outer surface, and a third member comprising an inner surface and an outer surface from a closed configuration to an open configuration, wherein the therapeutic kit container is configured such that in the closed configuration the outer surfaces of the first and third members are perpendicular to the outer surface of the second member, and wherein the therapeutic kit container is configured such that in the open configuration the outer surfaces of the first member, the second member, and the third member lie flat on the preparation surface;
- disposing the outer surfaces of the first member, the second member, and the third member into contact with a preparation surface;
- removing a vial adapter from the third member;
- coupling the vial adapter to a vial retained on the second member in a cylindrical sleeve suited to releasably hold the vial in an upright position by its base;
- removing a syringe barrel and a syringe plunger rod from the first member;
- forming a syringe assembly by coupling the syringe plunger rod to the syringe barrel;
- connecting the syringe assembly to the vial adapter;
- extracting the therapeutic liquid from the vial into the syringe assembly via the vial adapter;
- and
- decoupling the syringe assembly containing the therapeutic liquid from the vial adapter.
