  • Publication number: 20240108803
    Abstract: A drug storage and dispensing system that includes a packaging unit and an injection device for pre-filled containers having a needle shield and containing a medication is disclosed. The drug storage and dispensing system of the present disclosure provides for drug administration while minimizing the space occupied by such containers in the cold chain. The packaging unit minimizes the risk of a needle-stick injury, as a healthcare worker does not have to manually remove the needle shield. The injection device provides a novel way of auto-disabling a container, such as a syringe, as a plunger rod is not engaged with the container until the container is actually used. The drug storage and dispensing system provides for a reduction in the number of steps required to perform an injection, and thus a productivity and efficiency gain in mass immunization campaigns.

  • Publication number: 20240081708
    Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein are directed to a self-learning bladder volume monitoring system. The system can include a bladder volume (BV) system configured to measure an electrical impedance of a bladder region of a patient and determine a volume of fluid disposed therein using an impedance to bladder volume model (“By model”). Further, the system can measure a total body water (“TBW”) for the patient and modify the BV model to account for variations in TBW within the tissues surrounding the bladder providing a more accurate bladder volume measurement. The system can include a “training unit” which can include one of a user input interface, an automatic urine output monitoring system, an ultrasound system, and an intrabladder pressure system configured to verify a volume of fluid within or voided from the bladder and train the BV model.

  • Publication number: 20230285681
    Abstract: A sensor assembly for an injection device may include a disposable label and/or a reusable housing. The disposable label may be configured to be attached to the injection device and include an electrically conductive trace. A first portion of the electrically conductive trace may be configured to be altered in response to a first operation of the injection device. The reusable housing may be removably connected to the disposable label and include a processor and/or a wireless communication device. The processor may be removably electrically coupled to the electrically conductive trace and configured to be activated in response to an alteration of the first portion of the electrically conductive trace. The wireless communication device may be configured to wirelessly communicate, to a computing device, information associated with the alteration of the first portion of the electrically conductive trace. A system may include the sensor assembly and the injection device.

  • Publication number: 20230233774
    Abstract: A sensor assembly for an injection device may include a housing and/or a mechanical interface. The housing may include a sensor and/or a wireless communication device. The sensor may be configured to detect a movement of a component of the injection device associated with an injection operation of the injection device. The wireless communication device may be configured to communicate, to a computing device, information associated with the movement of the component of the injection device. The mechanical interface may be configured to attach the housing to an exterior surface of the injection device. A system may include the sensor assembly and the injection device.
