摘要:
An apparatus for detecting a physiological condition in a person, comprising input means for receiving at least two physiological parameters, processing means for determining, from the received physiological parameters, a result signal indicative of the presence or onset of said physiological condition, and output means for generating an output indicative of the result signal. The apparatus further comprises storage means for storing a look-up table comprising a plurality of entries, each entry corresponding to a pre-calculated probability of the presence onset of said physiological condition, the pre-calculated probabilities being determined by means of a mathematical process form previously monitored physiological parameters; and the processing means is adapted to process the received at least two physiological parameters to identify one of the plurality of entries of the look-up table, and to determine said result signal from the identified entry of the look-up table.

A cylinder ampoule (1) having a first end sealed by a closure through which an injection unit can communicate with a medicament in the ampoule and a second end closed by a piston (3) which can be forced into the ampoule (1) to press out a dose of a medicament stored in the ampoule between the closure and the piston (3) through said injection unit, which cylinder ampoule (1) has a not circular inner cross section and which piston (3) has a not circular cross section corresponding to the inner cross section of the ampoule (1). A piston rod (4) has a pressure foot (5) which has a cross section corresponding to the inner cross section of the ampoule (1) and is inrotateably connected to the piston rod (4).

The invention relates to a method and apparatus for calculating a plurality of options (305) for bringing a user into and/or keeping a user substantially in compliance with a medical regime of a medical self treatment, with the steps of: collecting, in a user individual database, data representing values (302,306) of a group of parameters relating to the user's physiological condition, estimating one or more future values for a specific parameter (301) from the group of the parameters on the basis of information in the user individual database, and automatically calculating a plurality of options (305) on the basis of the estimated one or more future values and the data in the user individual database, so as to provide for two or more options and at least one related value for each option, each option and related value bringing a value of the specific parameter within a range of acceptable values at a given future point in time.
摘要:
A cartridge (1) for an injection device carries a code represented by a number of bars (2, 3, 4, 5) mainly perpendicular to the axis of the cartridge. The bars (2, 3, 4, 5) are mainly transparent and are each along its whole length provided with an optical grating which diffracts and reflects light impinging the surface carrying the code so that a minor part of this light is reflected from the surface of the bar as a set of light beams of which beams at least one is detected for the indication of the presence of the bar when said bar passes a reading light field. The reflections from the bars may be interpreted as representing '1's and '0's in a binary code.
摘要:
A drug delivery device comprising a housing (1) with a drug container (2) being provided with delivering means comprising a piston (5) for expelling a drug (4) from the drug container (2). The housing (1) further comprising a displaceable piston rod (6) abutting the piston (5) of the drug container (2) and rotating means being in engagement with the piston rod (6), said rotating means being provided with a one-way mechanism. The one-way mechanism comprises a helical spring (12) wound tightly around an axle (11), one end of said helical spring (12) being fixed in relation to the housing (1), the other end of the helical spring (12) being in a free state.
摘要:
An injector comprising a changeable cylinder ampoule (2) containing medicine for a number of injections into which ampoule a piston (4) is pressed by a piston rod (9) driven by a drive mechanism to dispense a dose of medicine through a nozzle (5) as a high speed jet which penetrates the skin. The injector comprises a distal part (1) accommodating the cylinder ampoule (2) and a proximal part (8) containing the drive mechanism and the piston rod (9) which can be advanced a set distance by the drive mechanism when released, the distal and the proximal parts being provided with mutually engaging threads so that one of these parts can successively be screwed into the other to set a dose to be delivered by the device.
摘要:
A syringe having a dose setting mechanism, a button which can be operated to inject a set dose, a switch operated at a time between the start and the completion of the injection and an electronic representation of parameters such as magnitudes of the set dose and the latest injected dose, which syringe further has a stop watch which is reset and started when the switch is operated. The status of the watch function is electronically represented and is together with the electronic represented parameters reproduced in a display showing the number of hours passed since the operation of the switch by switching on a corresponding number of 30° segments of a circle. Dose sizes are shown by common Arabic numerals.
摘要:
In a medical injection device an ampoule containing a fluid to be injected has a resilient piston closing on one end of the ampoule, which resilient piston is moved forward by a plunger. A membrane closes the other end of the ampoule. An injection needle projecting through the membrane of the ampoule and into the ampoule is mounted prior to use. To protect the pointed end of the needle projecting into the ampoule from being damaged by the resilient piston when the ampoule is about to be empty and the piston is moved close to the membrane, the resilient piston has a central part of the front wall lowered relative to the rest of the front wall to provide a central well in the front wall.
摘要:
A cassette for storing and insertion of a solid medicine peg appears as a unit having a first bore (2) which accommodates the medicine peg (3) and has a diameter corresponding to the diameter of this peg (3), a second bore (4) in coaxial extension of the first bore (2) and having a diameter larger than the diameter of the first bore (2), an inserter having a shaft (5) fitting into the first bore (2) and a guiding head (6) in coaxial extension of the shaft (5) fitting into the second bore. The inserter shaft (5) has one end adjacent to the peg (3) and the other connected to the guiding head (6) which projects from the cassette. The head (6) fits into the second bore with a fitting providing a diffusion tight sealing and the distal end of the unit is closed by a membrane diffusion tightly sealing this distal end.
