Abstract:
A device and system for managing medication delivery devices includes a case with a housing having an opening for receiving a medication delivery device. A cover is configured and arranged to cover the opening. A medication delivery device such as: an auto injector is disposed in the housing. A sensor to detect the position of the cover may be provided. An electronic control system is operatively associated with the housing and disposed in wireless communication with a gateway device. The electronic control system is configured and arranged to provide a signal to the gateway device when the case is within, proximity of the gateway device. The electronic control system is also configured and arranged to transmit corresponding signals to the gateway device based on the position of the cover, the presence of the medication delivery device in the case, and/or the activation of the delivery device.
Abstract:
A portable device for detecting an analyte associated with a target organic molecule in a liquid and/or solid substance. The device includes a test chamber, a probe, and a sensor. The test chamber contains a liquid volume of test solution including an analytical reagent selected to react with the analyte. The test chamber is sealed by a pierceable membrane wall. The probe is removably positionable to pierce the membrane wall to deposit a sample in the test chamber to form a test mixture with the test solution. The sensor is positioned to detect one or more characteristics of the test mixture in the test chamber indicative of a reaction between the analyte and the analytical reagent.
