Abstract
A response form containing a means of input that on manual influence can switch a conducting electrical circuit connected to an electronic unit ( ) incorporated into the response form for registration of the said influence. The present invention provides such a response form at low cost and enables the use of the response form as a patient journal. The patient journal also can be integrated with a pharmaceutical response package. The response package is formed of a disposable material in the form of a sheet ( ), and a conducting circuit ( ) is printed onto one side ( ) of the disposable material. The means of input can consist of circuit makers ( ) that are visually marked-on one side of the disposable material and that are arranged to make electrical contact across an interrupted loop ( ) of the conducting circuit ( ) upon pressing together localized inner surfaces ( ) of the disposable material which face each other. The means of input also may consist of circuit breakers that are visually marked on pieces of the disposable material and arranged to cause electrical interruption in a loop of the conducting circuit when these pieces are at least partially removed from the response form.
