An apparatus is disclosed, comprising a detector unit comprising a detector configured to detect an actuation action performable via the detector unit to an actuation button of a medical device to cause the medical device to eject at least a portion of a medicament comprised in the medical device. The detector is configured to detect the actuation action based on a detection of a force and/or a touch applied to the detector unit as part of the actuation action. The apparatus further comprises an electric unit connected to the detector and configured to store and/or provide information related to the detected actuation action. Furthermore, an according method and a computer program for controlling this method are disclosed.

Device and method for detecting an actuation action performable with a medical device

The present invention relates to a drive mechanism for a drug delivery device, comprising: a piston rod to operably engage with a piston of a cartridge to displace the piston in a distal direction during a dose dispensing action, at least one actuation member mechanically coupled with the piston rod to induce a distally directed displacement of the piston rod when actuated by a user, a control to ascertain at least one predefined condition of use, and at least one interlock member coupled with the control to mechanically obstruct displacement of the piston rod if the condition of use is not fulfilled.

Pen-type drug injection device with controller and time lock-out mechanism for its drive

A stopper is disclosed herein. The stopper is configured to be disposed within a medical cartridge. The stopper includes a shell defining a cavity, a core arranged within the cavity, and at least one electronic device embedded within the core, wherein the at least one electronic device includes a sensor and wherein the shell is configured to pass a sensing signal therethrough.

Cartridge with distributed electronic components

An injection device is provided, comprising a cartridge configured to hold a volume of fluid, the cartridge having a proximal end and a distal end through which the fluid is dispensed; a first stopper disposed in the cartridge and configured to move from the proximal end toward the distal end to cause the fluid to be dispensed through the distal end of the cartridge; a second stopper disposed at the distal end of the cartridge, the second stopper including an aperture through which the fluid is dispensed; a reflector disposed at the distal end of the cartridge; and a transmitter and a receiver disposed in the first stopper, the transmitter configured to transmit one or more waves toward the reflector and the receiver configured to receive reflections of the one or more waves from at least the reflector.

Cartridge for dosage sensing

The disclosure relates to a medicament delivery device, comprising a medicament cartridge adapted to contain a medicament and a stopper slidably arranged within the cartridge. The stopper-comprises a rigid body that is enclosed partially by a soft sealing component.

Medicament delivery device

The present invention relates to a monitoring device for monitoring operation of a drug delivery device and to a respective drug delivery device, wherein the monitoring device comprises:

Monitoring device for monitoring operation of a drug delivery device

The present invention relates to an assembly line to assemble a medical device and comprising at least one communication member adapted to communicate with a corresponding communication member of an initial component of the device, wherein the assembly line comprises at least one assembly stage adapted to conduct at least one step of assembly being at least influenced by device-related data obtained from the component.

Component of a drug delivery device and method of assembly

A monitoring device for monitoring operation of a drug delivery device and to a respective drug delivery device is presented in which a fastening member releasably attaches the monitoring device to an axially elongated housing of the drug delivery device, a sliding member is shiftable relative to the fastening member in an axial direction and being adapted to operably engage with at least one dose setting component of the drug delivery device to follow an axial displacement of the dose setting component relative to the housing component, a first sensor arrangement for detecting a rotation of the dose setting component relative to the fastening member, a second sensor arrangement for detecting an axial displacement of the sliding member relative to the fastening member, and a processing member coupled to the first and to the second sensor arrangements to process first and second signals obtainable from the first and from the second sensor arrangements for determining the size of a dose dispensed by the drug delivery device.

Pen-type drug injection device and electronic add-on monitoring module for monitoring and logging dose setting and administration

Described is a needle assembly attachment and removal device comprising a case having a base and a longitudinal axis (L), a carriage axially movable with the case from a first position to a second position, a carrier rotatably coupled to the carriage and adapted to hold a needle assembly, and a gearing arrangement rotatably coupled to the carriage and adapted to rotate the carrier in a first rotational direction as the carriage moves from the first position to the second position and in a second rotational direction as the carriage moves from the second position to the first position.
