- 43. A hub for a syringe for use with a medical injector system, comprising an outer surface adapted to slidingly engage with a barrel of the syringe, and an inner surface having a substantially annular engaging portion adapted to be releasably engaged by a plunger to permit the hub to be selectively withdrawn along the barrel by the plunger.
-
64. A method for loading a syringe comprising a hub according to 43 into a syringe holder, comprising the steps of;
-
(i) inserting a syringe barrel in the cradle member such that the catch is displaced; and
(ii) allowing the catch mechanism to return into its biased position to engage the syringe and thereby retain the syringe in the cradle member.
