Abstract: Implementations of the present disclosure are directed to conserving energy of an injection device that includes an energy source configured to power an electronic component, a priming component configured to generate a trigger, a reactant configured to generate an instantiation signal in response to the trigger, and a sensor configured to detect and process the instantiation signal and generate an activation signal to activate the energy source.

Abstract: An injection device including a stopper and an electromechanical switch. The stopper includes an electronics assembly. The electromechanical switch is operable to be activated to power the electronics assembly. The stopper is configured to transition between a first size and a second size to activate the electromechanical switch.

Abstract: An electronically-controlled capturing system for capturing data representing an amount of a drug expelled or discharged from a drug reservoir includes an electronic circuit including an electric energy unit, a processing unit operable by electric power obtained from the electric energy unit and operable to acquire data, and an electronic storage unit connected to the processing unit and configured to store the acquired data. The processing unit is operable to write the acquired data in the storage unit and is operable to read and provide the stored data from the electronic storage unit. The capturing system also includes a data reading disabling unit operably connected to the processing unit , the electronic storage unit and/or the electric energy unit. The data reading disabling unit is switchable into an activated state, in which the data reading disabling unit persistently prevents readout or providing of stored data from the electronic storage unit.

Abstract: An injection device (102) comprising: an energy source (104) configured to power an electronic system (105) of the injection device (102); one or more sensors (127a, 127b, 28b) in communication with the energy source (104), the one or more sensors (127a, 27b, 128b) configured to cause an activation signal to be provided to the energy source (104) to cause the energy source (104) to enter a powered state from a sleep state; and a processor (128a) configured to facilitate one or more functions of the injection device (102) when the injection device (102) is in the powered state.

Abstract: A drug delivery device comprising a first module comprising a zinc-air cell located at one end of the first module, a second module for attachment to the one end of the first module and comprising electronics, and activation means for activating the zinc-air cell and being designed such that at least one air hole is created in an air tight sealing of the zinc-air cell when the second module is attached to the one end of the first module.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a packaging for a medical device comprising a casing adapted to at least partially receive and/or to accommodate the medical device featuring at least one user-driven function, wherein the casing comprises at least one functional element adapted to imitate the at least one function of the medical device.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a pumping device for delivering and metering fluids, in particular medical fluids such as dialysis fluids, with a piston unit having a driving device and a piston and with a membrane unit which has a membrane and a first chamber bordered by the membrane. The pumping device also has a hydraulic unit which has a space to accommodate a hydraulic fluid which is connected to the piston of the piston unit and to the first chamber of the membrane unit. The reliability of metering by such a pumping device is increased by providing a control unit for guaranteeing a predefinable metering rate and/or quantity and also providing a measuring device by means of which the axial position of the piston unit can be determined directly and which can be connected to the control unit.
