MEDICAMENT DELIVERY DEVICE AND MEDICAMENT DELIVERY DEVICE ADD-ON
A device is presented having an electronic circuit, where the device can be a medicament delivery device or a medicament delivery device add-on component that includes an electronic circuit having a temperature sensor configured to measure a temperature, where the electronic circuit is configured to passively remain in a first mode when the temperature is on a first side of a set temperature and to transition to a second mode when the temperature transitions to a second side of the set temperature. In some embodiments, the electronic circuit can have one or more of a feedback portion configured to switch from a first state to a second state in response to the electronic circuit transitioning from the first mode to the second mode, a lock, and a recordal portion to record when the electronic circuit transitions from the first mode to the second mode.
Flexible modules for injection devices
Implementations of the present disclosure are directed to a module for attachment to an injection device that includes a flexible carrier foil configured to be attached to a surface of the injection device independent of a geometry of the surface, at least one light emitting diode attached to the flexible carrier foil in a first position and configured to emit a light signal in a direction based on the first position through a transparent wall of the injection device, at least one photodiode attached to the flexible carrier foil in a second position relative to the first position, the at least one photodiode being configured to detect at least a portion of the light signal from a direction based on the second position and being configured to emit an electrical signal based on the light signal to a microprocessor, and wherein the microprocessor is configured to receive the electrical signal emitted by the photodiode and to determine the position of a stopper and the amount of the fluid within the injection device based at least in part on the electrical signal.
DOSE SENSING MODULE
The present invention provides a sensor module (50) adapted to be arranged in a cartridge based drug delivery device between a rotatable piston rod and a cartridge piston. The sensor module (50) comprises a first sensor structure (52, 152, 252, 352) adapted to be at least substantially rotationally locked with respect to the cartridge piston and comprising a transversal sensor surface (52.2, 152.2, 252.2, 352.2), and a second sensor structure (53, 153, 253, 353) adapted to be rotationally locked with respect to the piston rod and comprising one or more flexibly supported and axially deflectable contact members (53.1, 53.2, 153.2, 253.2, 353.1, 353.2), which are positioned distally of the transversal sensor surface (52.2, 152.2, 252.2, 352.2) and are adapted to apply a proximally directed force thereto. The first sensor structure (52, 152, 252, 352) and the second sensor structure (53, 153, 253, 353) are adapted to undergo relative rotational motion, whereby the one or more contact members (53.1, 53.2, 153.2, 253.2, 353.1, 353.2) sweep the transversal sensor surface (52.2, 152.2, 252.2, 352.2). A processor (52.5, 152.5, 252.5) determines a relative angular displacement between the first sensor structure (52, 152, 252, 352) and the second sensor structure (53, 153, 253, 353) from signals generated as the one or more contact members (53.1, 53.2, 153.2, 253.2, 353.1, 353.2) sweep the transversal sensor surface (52.2, 152.2, 252.2, 352.2).
INJECTION END POINT SIGNALLING ASSEMBLY FOR PRE-FILLED SYRINGES
An injection endpoint signalling assembly is provided that is adapted and configured for mounting on, and use with, a pre-filled syringe. The injection endpoint assembly is configured to prevent a signalling of an injection endpoint before the plunger of the pre-filled syringe has reached a limit of a permitted extent of a direction of injection travel. The assembly is further configured to enable the signalling of the injection end point when the plunger of the pre-filled syringe has reached the limit of the permitted extent of the direction of injection travel and is prevented from moving in a direction of travel different to the direction of injection travel.
Traumatic brain injury guideline system and method
A traumatic brain injury (“TBI”) guideline system employing a patient monitoring sensor (30) and a patient monitoring device (10). In operation, the patient monitoring sensor (30) generates data for monitoring a TBI parameter of a patient (e.g., systolic blood pressure, blood oxygen saturation or carbon dioxide expiration of the patient), and the patient monitoring device (10) generates a TBI indicator derived from a comparison of the TBI parameter data to parameter guideline data associated with a potential TBI of the patient. The patient monitoring device (10) may include a patient data monitor module (17a) to monitor the TBI parameter data, and a TBI monitor module (17b) to generate the TBI indicator. The TBI indicator is informative of a TBI status of the patient (e.g., a hypotension status, a hypoxia status or a ventilation status of the patient), and/or a TBI treatment for the patient (e.g., a ventilation treatment for the patient).
