A sealing membraneon a nozzlefor a jet injection device is adapted to seal off the nozzle orificeby having a sealing rimsurrounding the nozzle orifice, which ensures a distinct closure of the nozzle orificeto protect the nozzle geometry against damage and dirt and to protect the drugcontained in the cartridgeagainst contamination. The sealing rimcan narrowly enclose the nozzle orifice, or in case an adhesiveis applied to the nozzle face to ensure skin retention during injection, the sealing rimcan run in the middle of the adhesive covered area or entirely outside the adhesive covered area to protect the adhesive as well. A third sealing membercan also be provided to give a third distinct closure assurance in case the primary and secondary sealing membraneis damaged. The third sealing membercan be one or more plug(s) adapted to press fit inside the nozzle orifice.

This invention relates to a doser comprising a syringe () with a needle () which extends beyond the doser (), which comprises an engagement face () in the vicinity of the needle so that the engagement face rests against the surface of the tissue into which the needle is inserted. Detector means () are provided on said engagement face to sample signals on the skin of the patient. The invention further provides means () for receiving external information related to health monitoring of a patient. This provides a doser that may record heart rate, EKG, BGM and hypo-alarm administered medicine. The doser may further be arranged to calculate an appropriate dose of medication on the basis of a number of acquired inputs.
