Abstract: An autoinjector for dispensing a liquid product, particularly a drug, comprising: an electronic module with a sensor configured to measure the axial movement of a signal element (11) from a position at the start of the dispensing, wherein the signal element (11) is slaved in the dispensing direction, to a position at the end of the dispensing, wherein the signal element (11) strikes the signal stop (12a).

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a modular injection system including a first injection device including a first reservoir unit comprising a reservoir filled with medication, a housing for holding the reservoir and a plunger rod adapted to advance a piston inside the reservoir to dispense the medication and first automatic drive unit releasably attachable to the reservoir unit and including an automatic drive member automatically driven by a power source and adapted to be releasably coupled to the plunger rod. The modular system further comprises a second injection device including a second reservoir unit and a manual drive unit connected to the reservoir unit and including a manual drive member manually driven and connected to a plunger rod of the second reservoir unit. The first and second reservoir unit are identical.

Abstract: A delivery device for administering a drug includes a housing, a reservoir and a drive device with a movable piston rod. The piston rod is guided through an aperture in an inner or outer wall of the housing. The aperture is sealed but allows the piston rod to move. The shape of the circumference of the cross-section of the piston rod is approximately a non-trivial curve of constant width.

Abstract: An autoinjector includes a housing, a product container, a torsion spring, a drive element, and a propulsion element. In order to discharge liquid out of the product container, the torsion spring rotates the drive element, and the rotating drive element produces a propulsive movement of the propulsion element and of a piston in the product container. A rotation sensor is configured for an alternating continuous detection of at least two rotational positions per revolution of the drive element during the discharge process, and a processor unit is configured for determining the axial position of the piston in the product container from the detected rotational positions.

Abstract: A patient device includes a case and a user interface for interaction between a patient and the patient device. The case may include a projection unit which projects information onto a surface separate from the case. The user interface may include a display unit for displaying information relating to the patient device integrated into the case and an additional display unit for displaying information relating to the patient device, which is external to the case. The externally provided display unit may be coupled to the case such that it can be at least one of folded, tilted, pulled out or unrolled relative to the case.

Abstract: An automatically operating injection device with an occlusion alarm unit and a method for determining an injection occlusion are disclosed. The method includes generating a plurality of evaluation forces based on a series of force measurements and based on an evaluation time period; determining whether an occlusion exists based on either an evaluation of the plurality of evaluation forces or whether one or more of the series of force measurements exceeds a force threshold; and providing an injection occlusion alarm if an occlusion is determined to exist.

Abstract: A system for transmission of medical data comprises a first device which is designed to be worn on the body of a patient and which generates medically relevant data when in operation, said data being transmitted wirelessly to a second device. The first device comprises a communication unit for the wireless communication with the second device, a circuit which generates medically relevant data when in operation and a handover memory for the intermediate storage of data that are to be transferred from the circuit to the communication unit or from the communication unit to the circuit. The data generating circuit is connected to the handover memory via a first data line and the communication unit is connected to the handover memory via a second data line.
