Systems and methods are disclosed for processing sensor data collected by a drug delivery device with an external computing device. The drug delivery device may include a reservoir and a delivery cannula having a proximal end in fluid communication with the reservoir and a distal end to be received within a patient. The drug delivery device may further include one or more sensors configured to generate sensor data representative of a condition and/or operational state of the drug delivery device, and a communication module configured to transmit information to the external computing device. The external computing device may process the information received from the drug delivery device according to information stored in a memory of the external computing device to determine the condition or the operational state of the drug delivery device and/or generate instructional or informational prompts to be displayed to a user or patient.

The present invention relates to a signal delaying assembly for a medicament delivery device, said assembly comprising a delay female member containing a fluid, a delay male member having at least one passage, a delay unit connected to the delay female member or to the delay male member, wherein a relative movement between the male member and the female member and towards each other causes the transfer of said fluid from said female member through the at least one passage for slowing said movement, characterized in that the delay unit is releasably connected to a signal generating assembly for delaying at least one feedback signal.

A medicinal-liquid administering device is for administering medicinal liquid filling a tubular body into a living body under a pressing action of a plunger. The medicinal-liquid administering device includes: a disposable part including: the tubular body, the plunger, and a movable part configured to be moved from an initial position and to press the plunger toward a distal-end side; a reusable part that is attachable to and detachable from the disposable part, the reusable part including: at least part of a driving part configured to move the movable part, a first position detection sensor configured to detect whether or not the movable part is at the initial position in a state before the movable part is moved, and an alarm part configured to output a first alarm when the first position detection sensor detects that the movable part is not at the initial position.

A method, computer program product, and infusion pump assembly for determining a first rate-of-change force reading that corresponds to the delivery of a first dose of an infusible fluid via an infusion pump assembly. At least a second rate-of-change force reading is determined that corresponds to the delivery of at least a second dose of the infusible fluid via the infusion pump assembly. An average rate-of-change force reading is determined based, at least in part upon the first rate-of-change force reading and the at least a second rate-of-change force reading.

A method of treatment may include providing a syringe having medicinal fluid therein for administering to a patient and coupling an attachment portion of an extrusion accessory having a handle and a pawl to a flange portion of the syringe. The pawl may have first and second ends, and be hingedly and rotatably coupled relative to the handle at a first position at the first end and at a second position between the first and second ends. The method may further include applying a force to translate the handle in a direction substantially perpendicular relative to a longitudinal axis of the syringe to cause axial movement of the second end of the pawl. The second end of the pawl may be engaged with a plunger of the syringe and axial movement of the second end of the pawl may drive the plunger forward to extrude the medicinal fluid from the syringe.

A drug delivery device, in the form of an injector, may include one of a number of systems for limiting the delivery of a medical fluid or drug product in case of movement of (e.g., removal of) the injector relative to the patient as determined by a proximity sensor. The drug delivery system may in the alternative or in addition include systems for indicating the amount of medical fluid or drug product delivered (or not delivered) in case of movement of (e.g., removal of) the injector relative to the patient as determined by the proximity sensor. The injector may be, for example, an on-body injector or an hand-held autoinjector.

The present disclosure concerns an assembly for a drug delivery device (1)comprising a housing (3), a first abutment surface (64), a second abutment surface (21), and a detachable member (7) which is detachable from the housing (3) and attachable to the housing (3), wherein the assembly is configured such that, during detachment of the detachable member (7) from the housing (3) for an Nth time, N being a predetermined number, the first abutment surface (64) is brought into abutment with the second abutment surface (21), wherein the assembly is configured such that, when the first abutment surface (64) abuts with the second abutment surface (21), the detachable member (7) is enabled to be reattached to the housing (3) and, afterwards, the detachable member (7) is prevented from being detached from the housing (3).

A jet injector that includes a prefilled syringe. The syringe includes a fluid chamber that contains a medicament. The syringe also has an injection-assisting needle, and a plunger is movable within the fluid chamber. A housing is configured for allowing insertion of the needle to a penetration depth. The housing includes a retractable guard and an interference component, e.g., a lock ring, adjacent to the retractable guard that interferes with the movement of the retractable guard. An energy source is configured for biasing the plunger to produce an injecting pressure to jet inject the medicament from the fluid chamber through the needle to an injection site.
