Dosage management and patient education using an intelligent injection device

An intelligent injection device for temperature sensing and medication administration, comprising:

• a barrel having a needle at a first end for delivering medication;
• a piston assembly within the barrel;
• a temperature sensor;
• a timing circuit;
• a locking mechanism engaged with a stalk of the piston assembly;
• a microprocessor configured to:
• receive temperature data from the temperature sensor;
• calculate an amount of time that an injection device has been removed from temperature-controlled storage using the timing circuit;
• calculate a degradation risk for the medication based on a combination of the temperature data and the amount of time that the injection device has been removed from temperature-controlled storage;
• prevent injection based on the combination of the temperature data and the amount of time that the injection device has been removed from temperature-controlled storage resulting in the degradation risk for the medication being greater than a predetermined threshold;
• detect and verify an administered medication dosage;
• and generate administration verification data using machine learning to confirm proper dosage delivery.

A system for verifying proper injectable medication administration and recording compliance, comprising:

• an intelligent injection device having:
• a barrel and needle assembly;
• a piston for delivering medication;
• a microprocessor;
• at least one sensor for detecting an injection parameter;
• a wireless communication module;
• and
• a management platform configured to:
• receive real-time administration data from the intelligent injection device;
• calculate an amount of time that the intelligent injection device has been removed from temperature-controlled storage;
• verify an administered dosage matches a prescription parameter;
• generate a verification report confirming proper medication delivery;
• and
• update a remote medication administration compliance record based upon, at least in part, the proper medication delivery and the amount of time that the intelligent injection device has been removed from temperature-controlled storage.
