Abstract

A wearable automatic injection device is provided for administering a final medicament to a patient. The wearable automatic injection device comprises a housing, an injection assembly for injecting the patient with the final medicament, a container holding a bulk intermediate medicament and a diluent to be mixed to form the medicament, and a mixing mechanism for mixing the bulk intermediate medicament and the diluent in the container to form the final medicament prior. A system for administering a final medicament to a patient is also provided. The system comprises a container, a mixing mechanism for mixing a bulk intermediate medicament and a diluent in the container to form the final medicament, and a wearable automatic injection device configured to receive the container.

First claim

1 . A wearable automatic injection device for administering a final medicament to a patient, the wearable automatic injection device comprising:
a housing including:
an intermediate container holding a bulk intermediate medicament; and
a mixing chamber including one or more mixing mechanisms to mix the bulk intermediate medicament and a diluent to form the final medicament.

2 - 16 . (canceled)

17 . A system for administering a final medicament to a patient, the system comprising:
a first container holding a bulk intermediate medicament; a second container holding a diluent to be mixed with the bulk intermediate medicament to form the final medicament; a mixing mechanism including a mixing container for mixing the bulk intermediate medicament and the diluent in the mixing container to form the final medicament prior to injection; and a wearable automatic injection device comprising:
a housing;
a port to receive the mixing container containing the final medicament;
an injection assembly for injecting the patient with the final medicament; and
an activation mechanism for initiating the injection assembly for administering the final medicament to the patient.

18 - 34 . (canceled)

35 . A system for administering a final medicament to a patient, the system comprising:
a mixing mechanism for mixing a bulk intermediate medicament and a diluent to form the final medicament prior to injection; and a wearable automatic injection device comprising:
a housing;
a primary container to hold the final medicament;
an injection assembly for injecting the patient with the final medicament; and
an activation mechanism for initiating the injection assembly for administering the final medicament to the patient.
