Monitoring an injection process executed by a variable dose injection device with feedback means for generating a number of feedback events proportionate to the dose to be determined is disclosed. A dialed or injected dose is determined by measuring a first signal of the process comprising a first signal peak related to a feedback event; detecting the first signal peak in the first signal; selecting an evaluation interval comprising the detected peak and adapted to an expected peak duration; deriving, from the first signal limited to the evaluation interval, a feature or characterizing parameter of the feedback event; identifying, from the derived feature, the feedback event as one of a dial up, dial down, or expel feedback event, and counting identified feedback events to determine the dialed or the ejected dose. The two-stage approach with serially executed peak detection and peak identification allows to optimize data storage and processing power.

The disclosure is concerned with privacy and integrity of personalized protected health information when transmitted to a cloud computing facility and subsequently distributed to a plurality of stakeholders. An electronic unit of a drug delivery device is configured to prepare payload data comprising data items according to an allocation scheme, and to encrypt, based on an encryption key, and transmit data including the payload data. The allocation scheme and the encryption key are defined for each of a plurality of data subscribers. Accordingly, personalized protected health information payload data is suitably protected with generator-to-subscriber or pass-through data security measures, and any intermediary node or data server in the communication network lacking a matching decryption key will not have access to unencrypted payload data.

Injection device add-on

Add-on for an injection device

The invention relates to a device for administering a medicament, comprising a first appliance part; at least a second appliance part, which can be moved from a first state to at least a second state relative to the first appliance part before, during or after administration; an activatable identification element having a carrier; a RFID circuit with an antenna port and at least one signal terminal; at least one sensor which comprises at least two operatively linked sensor elements; at least one sensor element being connected to the at least one signal terminal, as well as an antenna which is connected to the antenna port. According to the invention, the carrier receives or connects the RFID circuit, the antenna and the at least one sensor element, wherein at least a region or section of the carrier is connected at least to the first appliance part.
