A robotic system and method are provided for transfer of fluid between a container accessible via a container-septum and a fluid transfer assembly accessible via a fluid transfer connector septum. The robotic system includes a controller and a manipulator controllable by the controller to manipulate at least one of the container and the fluid transfer assembly. The controller is configured to operate the manipulator to secure contact between the container-septum and the fluid transfer connector septum during at least a portion of the transfer of the fluid.

Multi-medicament infusion systems prevent cross-channeling of medicaments. A system may include one or more of an infusion pump, medicament reservoirs, a multi-channel fluid conduit, and an infusion set. Medicament reservoirs and/or collars may be sized and shaped differently such that the medicament reservoirs can only be inserted into the system under selected configurations.

A load cell assembly includes a load cell and a deflection portion. The load cell includes a fixed end and a free end. The free end is configured to receive a force in a first direction. The deflection portion includes a first component and a second component. The first component is coupled to the free end of the load cell. The first component defines a first cam surface. The second component is configured to support the vessel. The second component defines a second cam surface. The second cam surface is configured to engage the first cam surface. In an engaged state, the second cam surface is in continuous direct contact with the first cam surface. In a disengaged state, at least a portion of the second cam surface is disengaged from the first cam surface. The load cell assembly includes a central axis.

A medication dispensing system that includes a housing for at housing at least one medication in bulk, the at least one medication including a plurality of doses of the at least one medication; and a dispenser for separating a single dose from the at least one medication in bulk, the dispenser moving the single dose of the at least one medication from a position within the housing to a position outside the housing. The medication dispensing system also includes an optical verification sensor for verifying the at least one medication is a correct medication; a weight verification sensor for verifying the at least one medication is a correct medication; and an interface for receiving a plurality of inputs and displaying a plurality of outputs. The medication dispensing system also includes a network connection; and a virtual health advisor module associated with the medication dispensing apparatus which includes an instruction set. The instruction set, when executed by a processor associated with the medication dispensing apparatus causes the medication dispensing apparatus to produce a prompt at the interface, the prompt seeking an input related to human health; receive at least one input related to human health; and implement an action in response to the at least one input.

The mixing system includes an adaptor, an integrated injection device removably attached to the adaptor comprising a switching element, a first reservoir containing a fluidic first material, and a trigger. The adaptor includes a first attachment location configured to attach a vial. The vial contains a second material within a second reservoir, wherein the second material contains a medicament formulation. The adaptor also includes a first connection element, a flow channel providing fluid communication of the switching element and the first connection element, a sensing arrangement for detecting a pre-defined position of the vial at the first attachment location, and an interlock element which is configured to allow operation of the trigger in order to establish a fluid communication between the first connection element and the first reservoir only if the sensing arrangement detects the pre-defined position of the vial at the first attachment location.

Systems and methods of dynamic biometric detection and response are provided for the purpose of establishing baseline health status while conveying real-time drug prescription usages and reactions from baseline data. The dynamic monitoring system may be embedded within a wristband, ring, vest, and/or waistband in wireless communication with a computing device or server. Each wearable device may employ interchangeable and embedded sensors to detect inertia movements; 360-imaging fall detections; and a variety of body-emitting vital signs. The system may include a processor operable to sense user location, motion, activity, and biomarkers for the purpose of detecting the user's behavior pattern, wherein an enhanced machine-learning algorithm is used to identify repetitive actions within the user's behavior pattern; and, based upon this pattern, the system is able to detect one or more anomalies for the purpose of generating an anomaly alert for third party notification and quantitative analysis at a server.

A system for monitoring infant feeding habit includes a nipple having an embedded pressure sensing passage and pressure sensing opening. The pressure sensing opening is proximate the nipple feeding opening. The pressure sensing passage allows monitoring of change in pressure of infant sucks and swallows throughout feeding.

Embodiments are generally directed to systems and apparatuses for tracking usage of an item. For example, an apparatus may be provided for tracking use of a packetized item. The apparatus may include a microprocessor, a power source, and a structural layer to which the microprocessor and power source are coupled. The structural layer may include a container that is configured to hold various items. The container may also include an opening that allows access to the items. The apparatus may further include a cover layer that is configured to cover the opening of the container. The cover layer may include at least one bendable sensor placed over the opening of the container. The microprocessor may be configured to determine, using detected movements in the bendable sensor, whether the container has been opened.

The present disclosure enables apparatus and methods for tracking medications and/or product units via smart-packaging concepts. Embodiments include sensors that monitor the state of a blister-card package having an unpatterned lidding film by measuring the impedance of each dispensing region of the lidding film that defines a portion of a blister. In some embodiments, the impedance is measured via a plurality of contact points arranged on opposite sides of each dispensing region, where the contact points are resistively or capacitively coupled with the lidding film. In some embodiments, the impedance map of a measurement region on the blister card is derived via electrical impedance tomography or electrical resistance tomography, where the measurement region includes a plurality of dispensing regions.
