  • Publication number: 20230326372
    Abstract: In an embodiment, an injection simulation device is provided including a housing defining a channel, the housing comprising a proximal end and a distal end, a plunger comprising a plunger rod body having a proximal end and a distal end and a stopper disposed at the distal end of the plunger rod, the plunger movable proximally and distally within the channel; and a friction feature associated with the housing, the friction feature for interfacing with the plunger rod, wherein the plunger moves in a distal direction relative to the housing to simulate medicament delivery and in a proximal direction to reset the injection simulation device, wherein the friction feature optionally causes differential resistance on the plunger rod, when the plunger rod moves in either the distal or proximal direction.

  • Publication number: 20230215537
    Abstract: Techniques for artificial intelligence medicament or test delivery device sound output (MDDSO) detection includes receiving, at a neural network, processed data based on operational data that indicates a time series having a first duration for signals from a vibration detector collected during operation of a medicament device. The neural network classifies the processed data as a first MDDSO or not. The classificatio n data is sent to an output device. The neural network has been trained, prior to receiving the operational data, with first training data and second training data. The first training data indicates time series of ambient sounds, each time series having the first duration. The second training data indicates time series of sound having the first duration during operation of the type of medicament or test device, wherein each time series of the second training data includes sound from the first MDD SO emitted from the device.

  • Publication number: 20220273893
    Abstract: In at least one embodiment, there is provided a nasal drug delivery training device for training a subject to deliver medicament to a nasal airway, including a pre-use position and a post-use position, a housing comprising a cavity, a proximal end, and a distal end, and a nasal interfacing portion near the proximal end. The device includes a plunger movable relative to the housing, said plunger having a retracted position, and an extended position, and a plunger biasing member associated with the plunger for resetting the plunger to the extended position post use, wherein movement of the plunger toward the proximal end of the housing simulates delivery of medicament to a nasal airway with a nasal drug delivery device.
