STATUS INDICATOR FOR DRUG DELIVERY SYSTEMS
20210023299 · 2021-01-28 ·

Electronic modules for attachment to a drug delivery device include delivery status sensing means (21, 22) for monitoring a delivery status of the device, a status indicator (25) with an indicator element controllable to indicate a delivery or module status, and a status indicator controller (23), which generates an indicator control signal on behalf of the status indicator element, which in turn produces a status signal. The indicator control signal has an amplitude varying monotonically in time between a minimum value and a maximum value in a first interval of a base cycle, and between the maximum value and the minimum value in a second interval of the base cycle. In at least one of the first and the second interval, the mean value of the indicator control signal is below the average of the maximum and the minimum values of the indicator control signal to realize increased energy savings.

DRUG CARTRIDGE WITH DRIVE SYSTEM

Drive systems for a drug delivery device are provided. The drive systems can be positioned within a container that stores a liquid drug to be delivered to a user. The drive systems can be coupled to a plunger positioned within the container. The drive systems can be incrementally advanced to drive the plunger further into the container, thereby expelling a portion of the stored liquid drug from the container for delivery to the user. The container can be any type of container including a pre-filled, standardized drug cartridge. The drive systems and container can be components of a wearable drug delivery device.

Injection device with supplementary device
