摘要:
An operation tool for a fluid injector includes a selective movement mechanism which moves the fluid injector between a first protruding position and a second protruding position in a housing of an outer cylinder. When the fluid injector is at the first protruding position, microneedles of a multi-microneedle device are protruded out to a first distance from the first open end. When the fluid injector is at the second protruding position to discharge a fluid via the microneedles, the microneedles are protruded out to a second distance from the first open end, which is shorter than the first distance. The selective movement mechanism includes a rotational-linear movement conversion mechanism which moves the fluid injector between the first and second protruding positions along a longitudinal center line of the outer cylinder based on a direction and an amount of rotation of the outer cylinder relative to the fluid injector.

A transdermal administration device includes an administration section and a support body. The administration section includes a base having a base surface and a projection protruding from base surface and having a peripheral surface, the projection including a flow path which extends through the projection to the peripheral surface and is open to the peripheral surface. The support body includes a plurality of support sections configured to abut a target of administration. When viewed in a direction facing base surface, the plurality of support sections surround the base surface with a gap between the adjacent support sections and between the base surface and the support sections. The transdermal administration device is configured to displace the projection relative to the support sections from a position in a space surrounded by the plurality of support sections toward outside the space in an extending direction of the projection.

A microneedle including a projection having a through hole formed in the projection in a direction that the projection extends, and a tubular member having an end surface configured to support the projection when the end surface is pressed against a skin and a fluid is supplied through the through hole of the projection to the skin. The projection has a length H along the direction that the projection extends and the supporting surface has an area S such that a ratio of S/H is in a range of from 2.1 to 10.5.
摘要:
A puncture injection instrument including a hollow needle body including a substrate having a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface, the hollow needle body having one or more projections which are formed on the first surface and each have a through hole penetrating from a distal end of the projection to the second surface of the substrate, and one or more probes positioned outside a region where the one or more projections are formed. The one or more probes include an ultrasound probe or an optical coherence tomography probe.

A microneedle includes a base having a support surface, and a projection that protrudes from the support surface, the projection having a through hole that penetrates the projection in an extending direction of the projection. The projection includes a flow path expansion section which is configured to expand a communication path that communicates between an inner space of the through hole and a space surrounding the projection in response to an increase in pressure of a fluid flowing in the through hole.
摘要:
A drug administration device includes a substrate having a first surface, a projection extending from the first surface, and a solid drug. One direction that intersects with the first surface is a first direction, and one direction that extends along the first surface is a second direction. A groove serving as a receiving section is formed in the projection. The groove defines a cavity recessed in the first direction toward the substrate and extends in the second direction to open to a section of the peripheral surface of the projection. The drug is received in the groove.
摘要:
A cell transplantation device is used to place a graft containing cells into a target region in a living body. The cell transplantation device includes a needle extending in one direction, and a filter unit made of a fibrous member. The needle has a flow channel defined therein and an opening at the tip of the needle. The filter unit is disposed at an intermediate position in the flow channel and configured to retain a graft between the filter unit and the opening when a liquid material containing the graft enters the flow channel through the opening.
摘要:
A cell transplantation device for placing a cell group at a target region in at least one of an intradermal layer and a subcutaneous layer in a living body, including a device body including a protruding portion having an accommodating portion for accommodating a liquid composition including the cell group. The protruding portion has an opening that communicates with the accommodating portion, and the protruding portion penetrates a skin surface of the living body such that the opening of the protruding portion reaches the at least one of the intradermal layer and the subcutaneous layer and that the cell group accommodated in the accommodating portion is placed at the target region through the opening.
摘要:
An injection instrument including a hollow needle body including a substrate having a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface, the hollow needle body having at least one projection which is formed on the first surface and has a through hole penetrating from a distal end of the projection to the second surface of the substrate, a deforming member positioned outside a region where the at least one projection is formed, the deforming member being deformable to bulge in a bulging direction along a projecting direction of the projection beyond a plane flush with the first surface, and a pressure channel through which a fluid is supplied such that a fluid pressure is applied to the deforming member. The deforming member is deformable in the bulging direction in response to the fluid pressure.
