BLOOD VESSEL VISUALIZATION APPARATUS, BLOOD VESSEL PUNCTURE SYSTEM, AND OBSERVATION WINDOW MEMBER
20230191043 · 2023-06-22 · ·

A blood vessel visualization apparatus, a blood vessel puncture system, and an observation window member include an observation window that contains a wavelength conversion material for converting near infrared light into visible light, and that is configured to visualize an image of the near infrared light that has been radiated from a light source that irradiates with near infrared light a visualization target site at which a blood vessel of a living body is visualized, and that has then passed through the visualization target site.

Body fluid sampling device with capacitive sensor

A body fluid sensing device with a body fluid capture structure and a body fluid measurement sensor positioned in the body fluid capture structure. A capacitance sensor is coupled to the body fluid measurement sensor. The capacitance sensor is used to assist in the positioning of a body part relative to the body fluid capture structure.

Systems, apparatuses and methods to encourage injection site rotation and prevent lipodystrophy from repeated injections to a body area

Systems and methods encourage users to rotate injection sites and avoid lipodystrophy. Sleeves and/or lost-tooth gear dials and/or microswitches in or on injection pens or their caps, on vials, and on other portable devices manually adjust an indicator before or after an injection to show a current or next injection site in accordance with a site rotation plan. Injected medicine packaging and related printed indicia encourage site rotation. Optical devices employing optical mouse or projection technology help locate and/or distribute injection sites within a body area. A mobile phone app tracks injections and locations to select next injection site, and can use imaging to locate a target injection site and optionally diagnose lipodystrophic conditions and record them. Tactile and print media educational tools are presented to help users palpate and identify lipos in body areas having injection sites.

MEDICATION COMPLIANCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
20230181819 · 2023-06-15 · ·

Disclosed is a drug compliance management system including a microneedle applicator configured to infuse a drug by means of a microneedle in the form of a wearable device, a patient terminal configured to process drug compliance information including drug infusion information received from the microneedle applicator and medication information separately input by a patient after administration, a server configured to transmit the drug compliance information received from the patient terminal, and an expert terminal configured to display drug compliance information collected from a plurality of patient terminals.

INTRAVENOUS INJECTION AID FOR INDICATING VEIN
20230181842 · 2023-06-15 ·

The present invention relates to the intravenous injection aid for indicating vein, comprising: a compression strap; a binding means disposed at the opposite ends of the compression strap; a near-infrared lamp disposed at the compression strap; and a controller disposed on the compression strap for controlling the near-infrared lamp. The present invention as mentioned above may not only indicates vein with high visibility but also keep the vein from swaying or moving even during intravenous injection, so the intravenous injection can be carried out safely and efficiently.

ADHESIVE BANDAGE SYSTEM FOR MEDICATION DELIVERY AND INDICATION OF PROCEDURE LOCATION
20230181373 · 2023-06-15 ·

An adhesive bandage system features a first member with an aperture substantially circumscribed by an adhesive layer couplable to a patient's skin. A second member of the adhesive bandage is removably couplable to the first member, having an adhesive along an outer perimeter on a first side, the outer perimeter sized so as to overlap with the first member. In some methods of use, a user may adhere the first member to a patient skin, administer a topical medication through the aperture, and then adhere the second member so as to cover the aperture. The second member may be removed, as needed, to either add medication, replace the medication with a new medication, or to have access to an injection site with a needle or catheter.

MULTI-DOSE DRUG DELIVERY DEVICE

A wearable drug delivery device that can deliver a liquid drug stored in a container to a patient is provided. The container can be a prefilled cartridge that can be loaded into the drug delivery device by the patient or that can be preloaded within the drug delivery device when provided to the patient. A sealed end of the container is pierced to couple the stored liquid drug to a needle conduit that is coupled to a needle insertion component that provides access to the patient. A drive system of the drug delivery device can expel the liquid drug from the cartridge to the patient through the needle conduit. The drive system can be controlled to provide the liquid drug to the patient in a single dose or over multiple doses.
