International Classification:
A61M 5/34
US Classification:
604241
Abstract:
An injection device includes a syringe having a body with a piston disposed therein with an open end along with a viscous fluid disposed in the body for injection by the piston. A needle assembly is provided which includes a cannula, for example a blunt tipped cannula, having a luer connection engageable with the syringe distal end with the luer connector including a hub. Mating engagement is provided by way of internal threads at the syringe distal end and external treads of a hub with a pitch sufficient to prevent detachment of the hub from the syringe distal end during ejection of the viscous fluid. In addition, a stepped cavity, disposed in the hub, further prevents detachment of the hub from the syringe distal end during ejection of the viscous fluid.

Abstract:
A needle assembly for an injection device is provided to facilitate delivery of a dermal filler. The assembly includes a cannula and a hub. The hub can be coupled to a syringe. The hub includes an inner bore that has a proximal retention section, a stepped section, and a cannula retention section. The stepped section, the proximal retention section, and the cannula retention section are configured to reduce the dead space within the inner bore for preventing detachment of the hub from the syringe during an injection procedure.
