Abstract: A system for delivering an agent to a patient, comprises a delivery device. The delivery device is configured to deliver a first agent to the patient, and comprises a reservoir, a transcutaneous delivery assembly, a pumping mechanism, a control module, a power supply, and a housing. The reservoir stores the first agent. The transcutaneous delivery assembly delivers the first agent to the patient transcutaneously. The pumping mechanism receives the first agent from the reservoir and propels the first agent to the transcutaneous delivery assembly. The control module controls at least the pumping mechanism. The power supply provides energy to at least the control module and the pumping mechanism. The housing surrounds at least the pumping mechanism. Methods of delivering an agent to the patient are also described.
