AI Technical Summary
Existing drug delivery devices lack precise control over medicament delivery profiles, particularly in non-traditional healthcare settings, leading to poor patient compliance and restricted delivery profiles that hinder achieving desired pharmacokinetic or pharmacodynamic outcomes.
A drug delivery device with a drive system that includes an axial drive component, a variable rate drive, and a controller to deliver medicament at multiple predefined volumes and rates, using a motor and encoder for precise control, allowing for multi-rate delivery profiles.
Enables precise control of medicament delivery, enhancing compliance with prescribed dosage regimes by accurately delivering medicament at different rates, ensuring consistent pharmacokinetic profiles.
