  • Publication number: 20240350730
    Abstract: Described is an actuation mechanism for a medicament delivery device having a needle with a distal tip. The actuation mechanism comprises an outer sleeve telescopically relative to the delivery device and an inner sleeve telescopically arranged relative to the outer sleeve. The outer sleeve is axially translatable relative to the delivery device, and the inner sleeve is axially translatable relative to the outer sleeve. In a first state, the inner sleeve protrudes distally from the outer sleeve and the outer sleeve protrudes distally from the delivery device. In a second state, the inner sleeve is contained within the outer sleeve. Movement of the outer sleeve proximally relative to the delivery device in the second state initiates delivery of a medicament in the delivery device.

  • Patent number: 11850405
    Abstract: A supplementary device for attachment to a drug delivery device is provided. The device includes an attachment mechanism for coupling the supplementary device to the drug delivery device, an imaging arrangement for providing image data representing a captured image of one or more numbers present on a number sleeve of the drug delivery device and a processor arrangement. The processor arrangement is configured to receive the image data; perform optical character recognition on the image data to determine a quantity of a currently set dose of medicament; cause display of the quantity of the currently set dose; process the image data to identify one or more characteristics of the number sleeve; determine from the identified characteristics whether the currently set dose is a permitted dose; and if the currently set dose is not a permitted dose, cause an indication that the currently set dose is not a permitted dose.
