A delivery device comprising an acquisition mode for activating at least one button for controlling the delivery of a drug.

A wearable device may include a sensor system capable of obtaining physiological from a user's body. Some wearable devices may include a substance delivery system. A sensor system of a wearable device may include at least one “bio-assurance sensor” capable of obtaining biometric data that may be used to identify a user. For example, the bio-assurance sensor may be used to ensure that the wearable device is not removed from the user's body and/or placed on or in another user's body. In some examples, the wearable device may be used with a second device, such as a smart phone, that includes at least one “authentication sensor,” such as a fingerprint sensor, that also may be used to identify a user. However, in some implementations the wearable device may include at least one authentication sensor.

The invention relates to a secure system for the perfusion of a body liquid, enabling a final control of compatibility of a treatment with the patient and/or the medical situation previously diagnosed by a doctor, in a simple, efficient and energy-saving manner. To this end, the system includes a fluidic circuit of a perfusion having a perfusion catheter, a perfusion tubing and a container for the determined perfusion product to be perfused to a patient. The system is also configured to take a body liquid sample from a patient and to analyze and compare the body liquid sample to the determined perfusion product so as to control the flow of the perfusion product.

Alarm messages, which are output by a medical apparatus, are remotely processed on a remote application apparatus under consideration of a safety check and in particular with regard to whether the user who is working at the application apparatus is in visual contact with the alarm message-triggering medical apparatus. The medical apparatus may be a hemodialysis apparatus or a peritoneal dialysis apparatus, or another type of medical apparatus.

An infusion pump system comprises a pump for infusing a drug into a patient, a storing unit for storing therapy data, drug data, protocol data, profile data, care type data, and feedback data received from said pump and/or other sources including information about particularities of therapies already carried out or currently running, an input unit for selecting therapy data, drug data, profile data, and care type data, an associating unit for associating the selected therapy data, drug data, profile data and care type data provided by said input unit and further adapted to determine based on said association specific protocol data and specific feedback data, wherein said storing unit also stores said association with said specific protocol data and said specific feedback data; and an output unit for outputting said specific protocol data with said specific feedback data.

Provided is a multi-users cannabis dispenser comprising: a vessel comprising at least two compartments, each compartment configured to contain at least one cannabis composition comprising at least one active component; at least one dispensing unit associated with said at least one compartment, said dispensing unit configured to controllably release from said compartments a metered dose of said composition contained therein; a control unit comprising a data input unit configured to receive data relating to a specific user, data indicating a metered dose of one or more said cannabis compositions to be administered to said specific user and/or to receive data relating to a specific cannabis composition, data indicating a metered dose of said specific composition to be administered to said specific user and configured to control the dispensing unit to release at least one said metered dose. Further provided are methods of use of the multi-users cannabis dispenser.

A decision support tool is provided for identifying and assisting clinicians with patient ventilator asynchrony. The information used to make the identification may include data from a patient's ventilator including the volume, flow, and pressure associated with that ventilator. At least some of this information may be used to compute one or more features for a time series of the data received for the patient. These features may be used in connection with heuristic rules and machine learning algorithms to identify instances of patient ventilator asynchrony. Based on the identification, one or more intervening actions may be initiated to reduce the impact of patient ventilator asynchrony.

Aspects and embodiments of the present invention generally include a device for patient self-administration of a prescribed medication. The total quantity of doses to be contained in the device, the quantity of prescribed medication comprising each individual dose, and the dosing schedule, collectively referred to as prescription parameters, are determined and controlled solely by a health care provider. In accordance with a prescribed dosing schedule, the device makes available for administration the precise quantity of prescribed medication constituting an individual dose. Patient access to the medication as well as patient control of the device is limited solely to the aspects of the device necessary to administer the available dose. The device also has a monitored subassembly which detects and transmits relevant device information to a remote management system accessible to the HCP, including detected attempts to alter, access, control or otherwise tamper with the device beyond its prescribed use.

The present invention is directed to a system comprising a mobile inhaler (1) that is configured to be connected to at least one liquid container (17), and to deliver an amount of an inhaling substance (10). The mobile inhaler comprises furthermore at least one or a plurality of connector(s) (80) configured for connection of the mobile inhaler to the at least one liquid container and for intaking of at least a portion of the at least one liquid container's content(s). The system comprises furthermore the at least one liquid container, wherein each liquid container comprises at least one reservoir that comprises at least a portion of the inhaling substance or the inhaling substance. The present invention is furthermore directed to a method for operating the system, comprising delivering the inhaling substance by the system according to a set of conditions. Said set of conditions regulates at least one of a quantity and a general delivery of the inhaling substance.
