Patent number: 11152097Abstract: A portable medical device for injecting a medicament into a patient. The device includes a control circuit with a memory, the control circuit automatically storing in the memory an ejection event including an amount of the medicament that is ejected from the portable medical device during the ejection event; and a proximity sensor configured to sense proximity of a solid object located in an ejection direction of the portable medical device without making contact with the solid object. The control circuit is configured to tag the ejection event as an injection event if the ejection takes place in proximity of the solid object and to tag the ejection event as a priming ejection if the ejection does not take place in proximity of the solid object.Type: GrantFiled: October 8, 2019Date of Patent: October 19, 2021Assignee: BRIGHTER ABInventors: Truls Sjöstedt, Leif Hall

Publication number: 20210085864Abstract: There is provided a method and system for monitoring a portable medical device. The portable medical device includes a cellular radio transceiver and at least one sensor. The sensor is selected from the group consisting of a temperature sensor, a humidity sensor, an accelerometer, and an operations counter. The method for monitoring the device includes; a) using the sensor to determine a value of a parameter that is sensed by the sensor, b) using the cellular radio transceiver to establish a data connection to a remote computer via a cellular network, c) using the data connection to transfer the value from step a) to the remote computer, and d) the remote computer using the value from step c) to decide whether the portable medical device is in need of scrapping, service or replacement.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 19, 2020Publication date: March 25, 2021Applicant: Brighter AB (PUBL)Inventor: Truls Sjöstedt

Patent number: 10835686Abstract: A server having stored thereon information associated with an identified portable medical device. The server is configured to receive a position and a time point of a client device, and configured to use the position and the time point to retrieve position-specific data for the time point. The position-specific data is used to determine whether the portable medical device should be serviced or replaced.Type: GrantFiled: March 12, 2020Date of Patent: November 17, 2020Assignee: BRIGHTER ABInventor: Truls Sjöstedt
