Abstract: A system may include a mobile application residing on an external device and an inhalation device. The inhalation device may include a mouthpiece, a mouthpiece cover, medicament, and an electronics module comprising a processor. The inhalation device may be configured to both prepare a dose of medicament for delivery to a user and cause the processor to transition between power states when the mouthpiece cover is moved from a closed position to an open position to expose the mouthpiece. The electronics module or the mobile application may be configured to generate usage events based on usage of the inhalation device by the user. The electronics module may also include a pressure sensor, and the electronics module or the mobile application may be configured to determine whether a usage event is a good inhalation event, a fair inhalation event, or a no inhalation event based on feedback from the pressure sensor.

Abstract: Provided is a system comprising an inhaler. The inhaler comprises a use determination system. The use determination system is configured to determine a parameter relating to airflow during a use of the inhaler by a subject. The use determination system also assigns a time to the use. The system also comprises a user interface, and a processing module. The processing module is configured to determine inhalation information from the parameter, and control the user interface to issue a notification that the inhalation information is available. The notification is issued at a notification time. The processing module is configured to implement a deliberate time delay such that the notification time is delayed relative to the time assigned to the use.
