Abstract
Methods for operating an injection device that is mated to a mobile device are disclosed. Methods include sensing movements of the injection device and enabling inputs on the mobile device based on the movements of the injection device. Methods also include receiving desired injection parameter values into the mobile device, transmitting signals indicative of injection parameters from the mobile device to the injection device, activating injection of medicament with the injection device in accordance with the signals received from the mobile device, and obtaining data regarding the administered injection from the injection device.
Claims20
A method of operating an injection device that is mated to a mobile device, comprising:
- sensing rotation of the injection device to a first orientation;
- transmitting a signal indicative of the first orientation of the injection device to the mobile device;
- and
- enabling an input on the mobile device if the rotation is determined to be to a predetermined orientation, wherein the input controls a function of the injection device.
A method of operating an injection device that is mated to a mobile device, comprising:
- obtaining a recommended injection parameter from the mobile device, the recommended injection parameter calculated in accordance with at least one of a patient vital data measurement value, a target patient vital data value and a user information value;
- receiving a desired injection parameter value into the mobile device;
- transmitting a signal indicative of at least one injection parameter from the mobile device to the injection device;
- activating an injection of a medicament with the injection device in accordance with the signal indicative of at least one injection parameter;
- and
- obtaining an administered injection parameter value reflecting the administered amount of injected medicament.
