Abstract

Embodiments provide systems, methods and apparatus for drug delivery devices. The device includes: a dose selector for selecting an amount of drug to be delivered; a first capacitive sensor adjacent to the dose selector and operable to detect linear displacement of the dose selector during delivery; a screw coupled to the dose selector; a second capacitive sensor adjacent to the screw and operable to detect linear displacement of the screw during delivery; and a processor coupled to the first capacitive sensor and the second capacitive sensor and operable to determine the amount of drug actually delivered by the drug delivery device quantity. Many other aspects are provided.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims priority to US Provisional Patent Application No. 62 / 413,988, filed October 28, 2016, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety for all purposes. technical field [0003] The present invention relates to drug delivery devices, and more particularly to devices, systems and methods for improved drug delivery devices. Background technique [0004] Many different drug delivery devices and physiological fluid analyte monitoring systems are commercially available. A common application for such devices is to infuse insulin and monitor blood sugar levels in diabetic patients. The increased portability and ease of use of such devices enables diabetic patients to administer self-regulating medical treatment regimens, which in turn provides increased degrees of patient autonomy and privacy. This is especially beneficial since diabetics' blood sugar levels can vary from day to day or hour ...
