SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PROMOTING MEDICATION ADHERENCE
A system for promoting medication adherence is provided. The system may receive medical information and medication access information via a medication adherence device, the medication adherence device having a housing configured to be removably coupled to a medicine container top and an access switch, the access switch generating medication access information when the housing is uncoupled from the medicine container top. The information may be used to form one or more blind spots which may be representative of symptoms of glaucoma and which may be produced on the display screen of a patient's client device. The system may use Gamblification and/or Gamification in which a blind spot obscures portions of a game of chance program and/or novelty game type program, respectively, from being observed on the display screen of the client device. As medical information and medication compliance information is received, the number, size, opacity, and/or shape of the blind spots produced on the display screen of a patient's client device may change to provide actual perception of visual loss which spurs patients to compliance.
Storage systems and methods for medicines
People can damage their medicines by taking them outside in hot or cold weather. On the other hand, some people need to carry their medicines with them wherever they go (even if the weather is extremely hot or cold). Specially constructed storage systems can protect medicines from damage due to hot and cold weather without requiring bulky structures or expensive components that consume electricity to regulate temperature.
Medication compliance alert device
A device can include an alert mechanism and a detection mechanism. The alert mechanism can activate an alert for a user to take a medication from a target medication receptacle. The detection mechanism can detect a tag associated with a medication receptacle. Actions may be performed based on a correlation between the detected tag and the target medication receptacle, such as deactivating the alert based at least in part on detecting the tag associated with the target medication receptacle.
Medication box assembly
A medication box assembly includes a pill box that has a plurality of compartments each integrated into the pill box to contain pills. A plurality of covers is each hingedly disposed on the pill box for opening and closing the compartments. A lid is hingedly coupled to the pill box for opening and closing the pill box. A weight sensor is integrated into the pill box to sense weight of the pills in the compartments. An alert is integrated into the lid and the alert is in communication with the weight sensor. The alert is actuated when the weight sensor senses a weight that is below a pre-determined trigger weight to communicate that the number of pills in the compartments has fallen below a minimum amount.
ILLUMINATED BABY BOTTLE DEVICE AND METHOD
An illuminated baby bottle device including a cap, a nipple, a body configured to retain a liquid, and a base. The body includes an inner-wall and an outer-wall. The nipple is affixable and sealed to the cap, and the protective-cover is also affixable to the cap to protect the nipple and maintain sanitary conditions of the nipple, where the cap is affixable to one end of the body. The base is affixable to the body on the opposing end from the cap. Base is affixable to the body, with the base including a power-supply and an audio-source configured to provide an audio-track. The body includes a light-source arranged between the inner-wall and the outer-wall configured to illuminate the baby bottle device. The light-source includes multiple colors and is illuminated by at least one light-emitting-diode.
Sensor equipped medicinal container
Medicinal container bags are presented. Bags can include openers capable of sealing an opening of the bag. Disclosed bags further comprise electronic assemblies configured to detect opening or closing events as the openers move along the rims of the bag opening. The assemblies can compile usage data based on opener movement, and then provide the data to remote monitoring systems.
Medication container with smart cap
A smart medication container for providing an automatic, audible playback of recorded and timing information each time it is opened. The smart medication container includes a container base which is an open top container portion and a smart cap connected to the container base through a flexible cord and movable between an open position and closed position. The smart cap includes a sensor for determining when it is removed from the closed position and an audio playback system that plays a prerecorded dosing message and a generated time since last opening message when the smart cap is moved to the open position. The prerecorded dosing message may be stored on a removable storage media so as to allow it to be added, updated or changed by simply providing such a storage media.
Storage systems and methods for medicines
People can damage their medicines by taking them outside in hot or cold weather. On the other hand, some people need to carry their medicines with them wherever they go (even if the weather is extremely hot or cold). Specially constructed storage systems can protect medicines from damage due to hot and cold weather without requiring bulky structures or expensive components that consume electricity to regulate temperature.
Pacifier with downloadable voice and music and monitoring capabilities
This device will be a nipple that will soothe a child while providing soft noise for the child as well as providing perhaps educational material at the request of the parent. The sound itself can be emitted through a speaker and can be done wirelessly through a variety of wireless means. Alternatively, a chip may also be used to store various sounds that can be changed at the request of the user either remotely or locally. Because the parent will want to know when the child falls asleep, the noise from the device will automatically shut off once the child has stopped sucking on the pacifier.
Pill management and health monitoring system
A system and method for the dispensing of medication in the form of pills and also to monitor health parameters is disclosed. The system comprises a modular system having a main control module; a plurality of pill dispensing modules in communication with the main control module; and optionally sensors to measure health parameters in communication with the main control module. The main control module can store information and also can communicate information over a communications network.
