Haselmeier self-injection devices get connected

Haselmeier has added connectivity to its Axis-D platform pen and announced its new Axis-D-Connect Disposable Pen Injector

Haselmeier has partnered with the Austrian Institute of Technology (AIT) to equip its Axis-D platform pen with AIT`s cartridge fill-level measurement system.

The pen provides an integrated device solution with a range of features that include: device ID and authentication, electronic health record (EHR) integration and remote physician monitoring and interaction, according to Haselmeier.

All measured data collected by the small chip inside the pen is then transferred wirelessly to the end users’ mobile device (smartphone, tablet or smart watch).

Frédéric Gabriel, chief strategy officer for Haselmeier said: “This technology will allow Haselmeier to provide more integrated drug delivery solutions to its pharmaceutical partners across both our disposable and reusable injection device portfolios.

“Connected devices will define a new paradigm for improved treatment compliance and control of both chronic and acute diseases.”

Manfred Bammer, head of business unit biomedical systems, health and environment department at the AIT, said: “AIT and Haselmeier are working together as strategic partners in order to bring forward the integration of the fill level measurement technology and together we can define and develop connected injector solutions for customers and patients.”
