WEARABLES

FROM VIAL TO WEARABLE INJECTOR

While autoinjectors are often the delivery method of choice for patient self-administration, there are occasions when a vial and syringe format is required. To overcome the problems associated with this method, Medicom has developed a flexible, wearable patch pump which can accept a simple glass vial and provide a fully automated injection system. Hans Jensen and Kate Hudson-Farmer explain how it works.
