Dual check valve one handed applicator
Delivery devices, delivery systems, and related methods, for precise administration of hemostatic compositions are disclosed, which may include a trigger mechanism, a pusher, a valve, and a cannula. The pusher is configured to engage with the trigger mechanism, retain a first syringe, a least by coupling with a plunger of the first syringe. The valve is fluidly coupled to the first syringe. The valve is further configured to engage with a second syringe, in fluid communication with both the valve and the first syringe. The cannula extends distally from and is fluidly coupled to the valve. Activation of the trigger mechanism causes the pusher and the plunger of the first syringe to translate in a distal direction, to expel a composition out of the first syringe, through the valve, through the cannula, and out of a distal end of the cannula.
1. A delivery device comprising:
a trigger mechanism;
a pusher, configured to engage with the trigger mechanism, the pusher further configured to retain a first syringe at least by coupling with a plunger of the first syringe;
a valve fluidly coupled to the first syringe; and
a cannula extending distally from and fluidly coupled to the valve, wherein the cannula includes an inner cannula configured to deliver a composition and an outer cannula, the outer cannula disposed concentrically around the inner cannula,
wherein activation of the trigger mechanism causes the pusher and the plunger of the first syringe to translate in a distal direction, such that the composition in the first syringe is expelled out of the first syringe, through the valve, through the inner cannula, and out of a distal end of the inner cannula, and
wherein the valve is further configured to engage with a second syringe, such that the second syringe is in fluid communication with both the valve and the first syringe, and
wherein the valve is a two-way check valve that permits a flow through a first flow path from the second syringe to the first syringe and a second flow path from the first syringe to the inner cannula,
wherein the composition is a viscous hemostatic material.
2. The delivery device of claim 1 , wherein prior to activation of the trigger mechanism, the composition is expelled out of the second syringe, through the valve, and into the first syringe, such that the first syringe is filled with the composition via the second syringe.
3. The delivery device of claim 1 , wherein engagement between the valve and the second syringe is a luer lock engagement.
4. The delivery device of claim 1 , wherein the pusher includes a plurality of teeth, and wherein the trigger mechanism includes a ratchet, the ratchet configured to engage with the plurality of teeth of the pusher.
5. The delivery device of claim 1 , further including a window indicator that indicates an amount of the composition remaining in the first syringe.
6. The delivery device of claim 1 , wherein the outer cannula is stainless steel.
