    摘要: Fixtures for testing elasticity of drug related methods and related methods are disclosed. In accordance with an example, a method of testing the elasticity of a cannula of a drug delivery device includes securing a barrel of the drug delivery device within a fixture such that the cannula fixed to a distal end of the barrel extends out from the fixture. The method includes applying a lateral force to a distal end of the cannula using a strike member to move the distal end of the cannula a threshold distance. The method includes removing the force from the cannula. The method includes determining a final position of the distal end of the cannula after the force has been removed.
