Abstract: Exemplary embodiments provide a management wearable device with a body conforming housing. The wearable device may be worn on parts of the user's body, such as the hand, wrist, arm or leg. This eliminates the need for the user to hand carry a device. The wearable device may include a display for displaying information to the user. Where the drug delivery system delivers insulin, the display may be used to display information such as blood glucose concentration readings, insulin on board and other information. The wearable device may also include input elements, such as push buttons, knobs, keys or switches, for providing information, entering commands or initiating or halting activity.

Abstract: Exemplary embodiments may terminate application of an electric pulse to a shape memory alloy (SMA) element that causes actuation of a medicament pump based on resistance values unlike conventional approaches that rely on a mechanical mechanisms to trigger termination of the application of the electric pulse. The magnitude of the resistance values, the rate of change (RoC) of the resistance values, the temperature of the SMA element, the time that has passed since initial application of the electric pulse to the SMA element, or combinations thereof may be used to trigger the termination of the application of the electric pulse to the SMA element in exemplary embodiments. The monitoring of the resistance of an unactuated SMA element may be used to determine when to initiate and when to terminate application of an electrical pulse to the other SMA element.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are drug delivery devices and methods for component positioning of a pump, such as a linear shuttle pump. In some approaches, a system may include first and second terminals movable with respect to one another, and a sensor device operable to detect a change in capacitance between the first and second terminals as the first and second terminals move with respect to one another. The sensor device may include a two-stage charger connected with a controller and a voltage source, the two-stage charger having a first capacitor connected with a first switch and a second capacitor connected with a second switch, the controller being operable to close the first switch to connect the first capacitor with the voltage source to charge the first capacitor, and open the first switch and close the second switch to connect the second capacitor with the voltage source to charge the second capacitor.

Abstract: An on-body drug delivery device may have one or more antennas secured outside a housing of the on-body drug delivery device for facilitating wireless communications. The one or more antennas may be secured to an adhesive pad that adheres the on-body drug delivery device to a user. Alternatively, the one or more antennas may be secured to a portion of the housing for the on-body drug delivery device. In such instances, the one or more antennas may pass through one or more holes in the housing to facilitate an electrical connection with a component, like a wireless communications transceiver, inside the housing. Alternatively, wireless communications with the one or more antennas and the component may be used.

Abstract: Disclosed are examples of a device, a system, methods and computer-readable medium products operable to implement functionality to determine and respond to a purpose of a meal. An algorithm or application may receive data that may include data related to a meal purpose from data sources and determine whether any of the data received from the plurality of data sources was received from a direct data source or an indirect data source. The data may be evaluated to determine a purpose of the meal. Based on the results of the evaluation, instructions may be generated to provide an appropriate response based on the determined purpose of the meal. The generated instructions to provide the appropriate response based on the determined purpose of the meal may be output.

Abstract: In an exemplary embodiment, a drug delivery device is configured for Body Channel Communication (BCC). The drug delivery device may include a conductive element embedded in an adhesive patch that secures the drug delivery device to the user. This conductive element acts as a coupler to the body of the user. Another conductive element may also be provided at a face of the housing. This conductive element acts as the other end of the coupler formed with the conductive coil in the adhesive patch. The conductive coil in the adhesive patch conforms well to the user's skin surface and thus facilitates a good quality coupling with the user.

Abstract: Exemplary embodiments may provide an adhesive pad that is designed to be used with an on-body medical device. The adhesive pad may partially or fully surround a perimeter of the on-body medical device. The adhesive pad may be the primary mechanism or may provide an additional mechanism for helping to secure the on-body medical device to the user. In addition, the adhesive pad may include a metallic coil, such as a metal loop, that is woven into the adhesive pad or otherwise inserted into or secured to the adhesive pad. The metallic coil may play multiple roles. First, the metallic coil may act as an antenna to facilitate wireless communications with the on-body medical device, such as NFC communications. In addition, the metallic coil may serve as a power source for electric components positioned on the adhesive pad.

Abstract: One or more button cell batteries may be used in an on-body medical device like a drug delivery device to act as an antenna for wireless communications. Since the one or more batteries are already present in the on-body medical device, no additional real estate on the printed circuit board is required for the antenna. In some exemplary embodiments, a single button cell battery is used as an antenna, and in other embodiments, multiple button cell batteries are used as the antenna. For example, a single button cell battery may be used as part of a monopole antenna. Multiple button cell batteries may be used as part of a dipole antenna.
