Abstract
The present invention relates injection device for introducing a substance into tissue of a subject, the injection device comprising: (a) an application element (10); (b) a housing (50) having a receptacle for holding a syringe; (c) an electromechanical drive device system arranged to advance a piston for the syringe, and (d) a cooling assembly comprising a cooling plate (40), wherein the cooling plate (40) is incorporated into the application element (10). Moreover, the present invention also relates to a needle housing, liner and syringe specifically designed for fitting in the injection devices, according to the present invention or to be coupled thereto. Finally, the present invention relates to a method for introducing a substance into a tissue of a subject.
Claims16
An injection device (100) for introducing a substance into a subject, comprising:
- (a) an application element (10);
- (b) a housing (50) having a receptacle for holding a syringe;
- (c) an electromechanical drive device system arranged to advance a piston for the syringe, and (d) a cooling assembly comprising a cooling plate (40), wherein the cooling plate (40) is incorporated into the application element (10).
The injection device (100) according to any one of the proceeding claims, wherein the cooling plate (40) is part of the cooling shoe (45) and the cooling shoe is in contact with the cooling element, in particular the Peltier element (41).
The injection device (100) according to any one of the proceeding claims, wherein the distal surface of the cooling plate has the form of a single area, preferably of a rectangle, a square, a circular area, or an oval area.
The injection device (100) according to any one of the proceeding claims, wherein said housing (50) has intake vents (51) and outflow vents (52).
The injection device (100) according to any one of the proceeding claims further comprising a temperature sensor.
The injection device (100) according to any one of the proceeding claims further comprising a needle housing (21) having one or more needles.
The injection device (100) according to any one of the proceeding claims, further comprising a communication interface.
A liner (11) configured to be coupled to the application element of the injection device according to any one of the preceeding claims, wherein the liner comprises a heat-conducting material (12), part or item which contacts the distal surface of the cooling plate (40) after its coupling to the application element (10).
A kit, comprising a needle housing having one or more needles, one or more liners, and a syringe.
The kit according to claim 16 further comprising an injectable composition.
