The present invention includes syringes with valves. The valves control communication between the interior of a barrel of the syringe and the exterior of the barrel. In syringes that include two valves, the valves may be oriented opposite one another, such that one of the valves may enable fluid to flow into the interior of the barrel of the syringe while preventing fluid from flowing in the opposite direction, while the other valve may enable fluid to flow out of the interior of the barrel while preventing fluid from flowing in the opposite direction. Alternatively, a syringe may include a single valve, which is carried at or near a distal end of its plunger. Methods for using such syringes, including, but not limited to, manual pulsed aspiration methods and manual pulsed delivery methods are also disclosed.

1. An aspiration syringe, comprising: a barrel for receiving fluid;a plunger insertable into the barrel, the plunger configured to be drawn proximally through the barrel to draw fluid into the barrel;a first valve associated with a distal end of the barrel, the first valve comprising a one-way valve
1. An aspiration syringe, comprising: a barrel for receiving fluid;a plunger insertable into the barrel, the plunger configured to be drawn proximally through the barrel to draw fluid into the barrel;a first valve associated with a distal end of the barrel, the first valve comprising a one-way valve configured to permit the fluid to flow proximally into the barrel and to prevent the fluid from flowing distally out of or away from the aspiration syringe; anda second valve carried by the plunger, the second valve comprising a one-way valve configured to enable fluid to exit a confined interior of the barrel or a system of which the confined interior of the barrel is a part, through the plunger, directly to a proximal portion of the barrel open to an exterior of the aspiration syringe,wherein the second valve is configured to couple to a proximal communication element. 2. The aspiration syringe of claim 1, wherein the first valve communicates with a port extending through the barrel, near the distal end of the barrel. 3. The aspiration syringe of claim 1, wherein the first valve is secured to the barrel, near the distal end of the barrel. 4. The aspiration syringe of claim 1, wherein the first valve is associated with a member configured to be removably secured to the distal end of the barrel and is configured to be removably secured at the distal end of the barrel. 5. The aspiration syringe of claim 1, wherein the second valve controls communication of fluid through a distal end of the plunger. 6. The aspiration syringe of claim 5, wherein the second valve communicates with the confined interior of the barrel through a port extending through the distal end of the plunger. 7. The aspiration syringe of claim 6, wherein the second valve is secured to a proximal side of the distal end of the plunger. 8. The aspiration syringe of claim 1, further comprising: a first connection element associated with the first valve, the first connection element being configured to establish communication between a source exterior to the barrel and an interior of the barrel. 9. The aspiration syringe of claim 1, wherein the first valve comprises a switch type valve. 10. A system for aspirating fluid, comprising: a distal communication element including: a distal end;a proximal end; anda syringe, including: a barrel for receiving fluid, the barrel including a distal end configured to communicate with the proximal end of the distal communication element;a plunger insertable into a proximal end of the barrel, the plunger configured to be drawn proximally through the barrel to generate a vacuum within the barrel; anda pair of valves associated with the barrel, a first valve of the pair of valves comprising a one-way valve configured to enable fluid to flow proximally and to prevent fluid from flowing distally; anda second valve of the pair of valves comprising a one-way valve configured to enable fluid to flow out of the barrel through the plunger, into a proximal communication element coupled to and in communication with the second valve, and to an exterior of the syringe. 11. The system of claim 10, further comprising: the proximal communication element coupled to the plunger for receiving fluid from the second valve. 12. The system of claim 10, wherein the syringe further includes: a spring for urging the plunger proximally through the barrel. 13. A syringe, comprising: a barrel for receiving fluid;a plunger insertable into the barrel, the plunger configured to be drawn proximally through the barrel to draw fluid into the barrel;a first valve associated with a distal end of the barrel, the first valve comprising a one-way valve configured to control the flow of fluid into a distal opening of the barrel; anda second valve associated with an interior the barrel, the second valve comprising a one-way valve configured to control fluid flow out of the interior of the barrel through the plunger, directly to a proximal portion of the barrel open to an exterior of the syringe, in an opposite direction from a direction in which fluid may flow through the first valve,wherein a connector immediately adjacent the second valve is configured to attach to a proximal communication element. 14. The syringe of claim 13, wherein: the first valve is configured to enable fluid to flow into the barrel through the distal opening while preventing fluid from flowing out of the barrel through the distal opening; andthe second valve is configured to enable fluid to flow out of the barrel at a second location while preventing fluid from flowing into the barrel at the second location. 15. The syringe of claim 14, wherein the second valve is carried by the plunger. 16. The syringe of claim 15, wherein the second valve is located at or directly adjacent to a distal end of the plunger. 17. A syringe, comprising: a barrel for receiving fluid;a plunger insertable into the barrel, the plunger configured to be drawn proximally through the barrel to draw fluid into the barrel; anda valve at a distal end of the plunger, the valve communicating with an interior of the barrel and with an exterior of the syringe, the valve comprising a one-way valve configured to enable fluid to exit the barrel while preventing fluid from entering the barrel at the same location,wherein a connector immediately adjacent the second valve is configured to attach to a proximal communication element. 18. The syringe of claim 17, further comprising: another valve in direct flow communication with a distal opening of the barrel, the another valve comprising a one-way valve configured to enable fluid to enter the barrel.
