1. An apparatus comprising:

  • a releasable latch positioning a proximal housing relative to a distal housing, the distal housing coupled to a syringe tube and the proximal housing coupled to a plunger, the plunger disposed within the syringe tube;

    a screw mechanism coupling at least one of the syringe tube to the distal housing and the plunger to the proximal housing, to move the plunger along a length of the syringe tube;

    wherein the latch defines a first latched position to removably lock the latch to locate the plunger at a first location along the length and a second latched position to removably lock the latch to locate the plunger at a different second location along the length proximal to the first location.
