摘要:
Various embodiments of a "smart" drug delivery system are provided which includes an add-on module and a reusable or disposable drug pen. Upon attachment to the pen, the add-on module may: determine dosage selected, injection of selected dosage, duration of injection, time of injection, whether the pen has been primed or shaken to thoroughly mix up insulin mixtures, transmit information relating to insulin dosage and injection to a data management unit, provide reminders, error warning or messages on improper usage or reusage of needles, track amount of drug remaining on board the pen or duration of usage of pen with respect to expiry of the drug on board, or provide an audible alarm for locating misplaced pen and module.

Various embodiments of a medical module are provided which includes a primary module housing, a secondary module housing, a dosage sensor, a power source, and a microcontroller. The module is configured to be attached to a disposable drug delivery pen or a reusable drug delivery pen so that the module may: determine dosage selected, injection of selected dosage, duration of injection, time of injection, whether the pen has been primed or shaken to thoroughly mix up insulin mixtures, trans-mit information relating to insulin dosage and injection to a data management unit, provide reminders, error warning or messages on improper usage or reusage of needles, track amount of drug remaining on board the pen or duration of usage of pen with re-spect to expiry of the drug on board, or provide an audible alarm for locating misplaced pen and module.

Various embodiments of a "smart" drug delivery pen are provided which include a drug delivery pen having an inertial sensor or accelerometer 276. A system is also provided that includes the smart drug pen in conjunction with a data management unit(s) DMU. The drug delivery pen also includes a momentary micro-switch 267 wherein depressing the injection knob 204 activates the momentary switch for waking up the device from sleep mode. Moreover, the duration of actuation of the micro-switch provides an indication whether the dose has been accurately delivered

摘要:
An electronics device (“ED”) includes a housing, a buttons electrical circuit block, at least one user operable button in operable communication with the buttons electrical circuit block, a microcontroller block, and a first-time-on (FTO) electrical circuit block, disposed within the housing. The FTO electrical circuit block includes an activation node and a signal reception contact, and is configured: (i) to place the ED into a deep power conservation mode (“DPCM”) upon either the direct application of an electrical signal to the activation node by an ED or a deactivation signal received at the signal reception contact; (ii) to terminate the DPCM and place the ED into a normal operating mode upon receiving a predetermined user triggered signal from the at least one user operable button; and (ii) to generate the deactivation signal received at the signal reception contact in response to an external command signal received by the microcontroller block.
