MIST INHALER DEVICES
A mist inhaler device (200) for generating a mist for inhalation by a user. The device comprises a mist generator device (201) and a driver device (202). The driver device (202) is configured to drive the mist generator device (201) at an optimum frequency to maximise the efficiency of mist generation by the mist generator device (201).
RESPIRATORY DEVICE TRACKING SYSTEM
An inhaler tracker module is secured to an inhaler and has an activation sensor for sensing use of the inhaler. The tracker module includes a memory for storing inhaler use data, and a communications component for wirelessly transmitting the stored inhaler use data. The tracker module is wrapped around the inhaler body and includes a pressure switch located at the top of the canister to detect a user pressing the canister into the body for inhaler use. The tracking module has a standby mode in which it remains until inhaler use or until inhaler use data is stored and it is transmitted. A pairing function is provided.
Nicotine salt with meta-salicylic acid and applications therein
The present disclosure relates generally to the field of nicotine delivery. The disclosure teaches a nicotine meta-salicylate. More specifically, the disclosure teaches a condensation nicotine aerosol where nicotine meta-salicylate is vaporized. This disclosure relates to aerosol nicotine delivery devices. The delivery devices can be activated by actuation mechanisms to vaporize thin films comprising a nicotine meta-salicylate. More particularly, this disclosure relates to thin films of nicotine salt with meta salicylic acid for the treatment of nicotine craving and for effecting smoking cessation.
DRUG DELIVERY DEVICE WITH ELECTRONICS
A system may include a mobile application residing on an external device and an inhalation device. The inhalation device may include a mouthpiece, a mouthpiece cover, medicament, and an electronics module comprising a processor. The inhalation device may be configured to both prepare a dose of medicament for delivery to a user and cause the processor to transition between power states when the mouthpiece cover is moved from a closed position to an open position to expose the mouthpiece. The electronics module or the mobile application may be configured to generate usage events based on usage of the inhalation device by the user. The electronics module may also include a pressure sensor, and the electronics module or the mobile application may be configured to determine whether a usage event is a good inhalation event, a fair inhalation event, or a no inhalation event based on feedback from the pressure sensor.
Drug delivery device with electronics
A device for delivering medication to a user may include a main body, an electronics module, and a slider. The main body may include a mouthpiece, a medication reservoir, and a mouthpiece cover, where the mouthpiece cover may be hinged to the main body. The electronics module may include a communication circuit, a pressure sensor, and a switch. The slider may be configured to engage the switch when the mouthpiece cover moves from a closed position to an open position. The switch may be configured to switch the electronics module from an off state or a sleep state to an active state. The electronics module may be configured to never return to the off state after the mouthpiece cover is moved to expose the mouthpiece for the first time by the user.
Respiratory system and method that monitors medication flow
A respiratory system and method comprise a tracker module adaptable to be secured to a variety of inhalers, the tracker module sensing activation of the medication canister of the inhaler for delivery of medication to a user. The tracker module also senses the rate of inhalation air flow of the user when inhaling medication for determination of proper inhaler use. Upstream and downstream sensors provide flow information to determine quality of the inhalation. A flow sensor is an integral part of the tracking module and can be used on multiple inhalers. Other sensors are provided that monitor user presence at the inhaler, user technique in using the inhaler, and the attitude of the inhaler when it was used. Low power devices are used to conserve battery power. A spirometer provides user lung function data.
Vaporization device
A vaporizer device includes an inhalation nozzle, a container containing the vaporizable material; and an atomizer arranged for carrying out a single continual atomization process for producing an inhalable vapor. A dosage reminder system for the vaporizer device includes a control module, a reminder determination unit configured for detecting a parameter during the single continual atomization process of the atomizer and a reminder element arranged for providing a reminder effect under control of the control module when the parameter reaches to a predetermined threshold.
Secure smart dosing system with automated delivery, measurement, and management for pills
A smart dosing device includes: a supply pathway having a compartment that is able to house multiple discrete doses of a substance; at least one sensor that captures identifying information related to the substance; a wireless communication module; and at least one security feature that restricts use of the smart dosing device. A method of providing a measured dose using a smart dosing device includes: retrieving a discrete dose from a storage cavity of the smart dosing device; and providing the discrete dose via an outlet port of the device. A smart dosing system includes: a smart dosing device having a unique identifier, the smart dosing device including a cartridge housing multiple discrete doses of a substance, the cartridge having a unique cartridge identifier; and a server including a central database that stores usage information related to the smart dosing device including the unique identifier and the unique cartridge identifier.
