Abstract

An injection device includes: an acoustic sensor configured to detect an ambient acoustic signal; an acoustic signal generator operable to generate an acoustic signal; and a controller configured to control the acoustic signal generator to generate an alarm having an acoustic property selected based on the detected ambient acoustic signal. A feedback system includes a first device including an acoustic signal generator operable to generate an acoustic signal; and a second device comprising an acoustic sensor configured to detect an ambient acoustic signal, and a controller configured to control the acoustic signal generator of the first device to generate an alarm having an acoustic property selected based on the detected ambient acoustic signal; one of the first device and the second device is an injection device, and the other of the first device and the second device is a mobile device or a controller device.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to an apparatus for providing an audible alert to a user, and in particular to an apparatus for providing an audible alert related to the status of a drug delivery device. Background technique [0002] There are a variety of diseases that require regular treatment by injecting medicaments from a medical device. Such injections can be performed using an injection device, either by medical personnel or by the patient himself. For example, type 1 and type 2 diabetes can be treated by the patient himself by injecting doses of insulin, such as one or several injections per day. For example, prefilled disposable insulin pens can be used as injection devices. Alternatively, a reusable pen can be used. The reusable pen allows replacement of empty medicament cartridges with new medicament cartridges. Either pen can be supplied with a set of disposable needles that are replaced before each use. The insulin dose to be injected ...
