Abstract

Abstract The present invention relates to a kit for administration of medicaments. The kit comprises a box (1) that contains at least one medicament delivery device (4, 4a) and a video device (3). The video device (3) may be configured to provide visual or audio-visual instructions for using the medicament delivery device (4, 4a). Both the at least one medicament delivery device (4, 4a) and the video device (3) are removably attached to the box (1). Removal of the at least one medicament delivery device (4, 4a) and the video device (3) from the box (1) allows carrying the at least one medicament delivery device (4, 4a) and the video device (3) without the need to carry the entire box (1). As carrying the at least one medicament delivery device (4, 4a) and the video device (3) without the box (1) is much more comfortable as compared to carrying the en tire bulky box (1) it is more likely as compared to the prior art that the patient will indeed carry the medicament delivery device (4, 4a) at all times so that the medicament delivery device (4, 4a) is available when needed. Moreover, as the video device can be removed from the bulky box (1) it is more likely as compared to the prior art that the patient will also carry the video de vice (3). Thus, the likelihood of improper use of the medicament delivery device (4, 4a) is de creased as compared to the prior art. 2b 4a Fig. 2

Description

Kit for administration of medicaments
Self-administered medicament delivery devices, such as, for example pre-filled medical injectors, inhalers, transdermal delivery devices and the like are often used as a part of a patient's medication regimen. For example, known self-administered medicament delivery devices can be used as a part of a patient's emergency care regimen. Emergency care regimens can include, for example, using an auto-injector to rapidly self-administer a medicament in response to an allergic reaction, for example epinephrine, or for the treatment of other emergency conditions as for example poisoning. Known self-administered medicament delivery devices can also be used as a part of a patient's chronic care regimen. Chronic care regimens can include, for example, using a pen injector to self-administer a medicament according to a prescribed plan. Examples of chronic care regimens can include, for example, the injection of insulin, the injection of human growth hormone (HGH), erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESA), Interferons and other chronic therapies, or the like. Furthermore, self-administered medicament delivery devices can also be used for preventive/prophylactic therapies. Examples of preventive/prophylactic therapies include certain vaccines, such as an influenza vaccine.
To actuate some known medicament delivery devices, the user may be required to execute a series of operations. For example, to actuate some known auto-injectors, the user must remove a protective cap, remove a locking device, place the auto-injector in a proper position against the body and then press a button to actuate the auto-injector. Failure to complete these operations properly can result in an incomplete injection and/or injection into an undesired location of the body.
The likelihood of improper use of known medicament delivery devices can be compounded by the nature of the user and/or the circumstances under which such devices are used. For example, many users are not trained medical professionals and may have never been trained in the operation of such devices. Moreover, in certain situations, the user may not be the patient, and may therefore have no experience with the medicament delivery device. Similarly, because some known medicament delivery devices are configured to be used relatively infrequently in response to an allergic reaction or the like, even those users familiar with the device and/or who have been trained may not be well practiced at operating the device. Finally, such devices often have to be used during an emergency situation, during which even experienced and/or trained users may be subject to confusion, panic and/or the physiological effects of the condition requiring treatment. It is essential that the person who needs treatment can calm down and stop any panic by quick and safe administration of the required medication. It should also be possible that people who become aware of the emergency situation can help the patient. In a best case scenario even elderly people and children should be in the position to help the patient.
It has been suggested in US 9,278,177 B2 that the likelihood of improper use of known medicament delivery devices can be substantially reduced if a medicament delivery device is provided together with an output device that provides an audio-visual output via a speaker and an LCD screen showing step-by-step instructions for using the medicament delivery device. US 9,278,177 B2 suggests that a medicament delivery device and an output device are provided together as a medical system in form of a box that contains both the medicament delivery device and the output device. However, according to the system suggested by US 9,278,177 B2 the patient has to carry the entire box in order to be able to receive the audio-visual instructions for using the medicament delivery device.
However, this is disadvantageous because such a box is bulky and carrying it is inconvenient and undesirable. Accordingly, the patient may not carry the medicament delivery device at all times so that the medicament delivery device may not be available when needed. Furthermore, the patient may remove the medicament delivery device from the box in order to carry only the medicament delivery device and to avoid carrying the bulky box. However, in such a case the audio-visual instructions for using the medicament delivery device may not be available when needed so that the likelihood of improper use of the medicament delivery device is increased.
The problems of the prior art are solved by the subject-matter of the patent claims. The problems are in particular solved by a kit comprising a box (1) containing at least one medicament delivery device (4, 4a) and a video device (3), wherein both the at least one medicament delivery device (4, 4a) and the video device (3) are removably attached to the box (1).
The video device is a device for playing a video. The term “video” as used herein refers to a series of images which are sequentially presented to relay visual instructions for using the medicament delivery device. The rate at which the images are sequentially presented is not especially limited. The images may be sequentially presented at a rate that causes the viewer to perceive the visual instructions for using the medicament delivery device as a motion picture. That is, the rate at which the images are presented may be a rate that causes the viewer to perceive the visual instructions for using the medicament delivery device as a continuously moving image. Alternatively, the rate may be such that the visual instructions for using the medicament delivery device is presented as a slide show. That is, the rate at which the images are present- ed may be such that the viewer perceives the moment at which an image is replaced by the subsequent image in the series. In examples where the series is presented as a slide show, the presentation of the sequence may be automatic and/or involve user input to effect replacement of an image by the subsequent or previous image in the series.
The kit of the present invention comprises a box (1). The box (1) is useful for compactly combining the at least one medicament delivery device (4, 4a) and the video device (3). Suitable is in principle any kind of box (1) that is large enough for containing the at least one medicament delivery device (4, 4a) and the video device (3). The box (1) is preferably made from a robust material in order to prevent damage to the at least one medicament delivery device (4, 4a) and/or the video device (3) by external forces. Preferred materials are selected from the group consisting of paperboard, plastics and metal.
Preferably, the kit comprises a video access means (11) in addition to the video device. The video access means can be used to access a training video comprising visual instructions (video instructions) for using the medicament delivery device. As discussed above, the training video may comprise a moving picture, or a slide show. Preferably, the training video comprises a moving picture. The video instructions are preferably step-by-step instructions for using the medicament delivery device (4, 4a).
The video device may be for displaying a different video to the training video. For example, the video device may be for displaying a video in which the rate at which the images are presented is such that the viewer perceives the moment at which an image is replaced by the subsequent image in the series, and the training video may be displayed at a rate that causes the viewer to perceive the visual instructions for using the medicament delivery device as a motion picture.
In embodiments including the video access means (11), the box (1) is large enough for containing the at least one medicament delivery device (4, 4a), the video device (3) and the video access means (11).
In some embodiments, the video access means comprises a graphical representation containing information relating to the video instructions for using the medicament delivery device (4, 4a). Preferably, the graphical representation represents data that describes a reference to a location where the training video can be used. In some embodiments, the reference to a location is a Uniform Resource Identifier. For example, the Uniform Resource Identifier may be a Uniform Resource Locator that references a web page (a “web address”).
In some embodiments, the graphical representation comprises a barcode. The barcode may be a two-dimensional (2D) barcode. That is, the barcode may be a matrix barcode. Preferably, the barcode is a Quick Response code (QR code). In these embodiments, the barcode represents data that describes a reference to a location where the video instructions can be viewed. Preferably, the reference is a URI. Preferably, the URI is a URL for a web page where the training video can be viewed (that is, the URI is an address for a web page).
The graphical representation is machine readable. In some embodiments, the graphical representation can be read by a mobile device (for example, a mobile phone). By scanning the graphical representation, the mobile device can obtain the information relating to the video instructions for using the medicament delivery device.
In some embodiments, the video access means comprises a data storage device that contains a video comprising video instructions for using the medicament delivery device. The data storage device can be any type of data storage device. It may incorporate electronic, magnetic, optical, and/or other types of storage media. For example, in some embodiments the data storage device is an optical disc. In some other embodiments, the data storage device is a solid state memory device, such as a memory card. Preferably, the data storage device is a USB drive. In these embodiments, the data storage device contains video data.
In some embodiments, the data storage device (for example, the USB drive) only contains a training video comprising video instructions for using the medicament delivery device.
Alternatively, the data storage device may additionally comprise a player for playing the training video comprising video instructions for using the medicament delivery device. The player may be a piece of hardware or a software program for playing video data. In these embodiments, the data storage device may be encoded with one or more programs that, when executed on one or more processors, causes the training video comprising video instructions to be displayed.
The data storage device (11) may comprise an integrated physical interface for communicating data to a computer.
By providing the video access means (11), in addition to the video device (3), the kit can provide a user with even more options as to how to view the video instructions. In this way, the kit can provide improved user convenience. In addition, the video access means can provide a failsafe, in case the video device malfunctions.

Both the at least one medicament delivery device (4, 4a) and the video device (3) are removably attached to the box (1). Removal of the at least one medicament delivery device (4, 4a) and the video device (3) from the box (1) allows carrying the at least one medicament delivery device (4, 4a) and the video device (3) without the need to carry the entire box (1). As carrying the at least one medicament delivery device (4, 4a) and the video device (3) without the box (1) is much more comfortable as compared to carrying the entire bulky box (1) it is more likely as compared to the prior art that the patient will indeed carry the medicament delivery device (4, 4a) at all times so that the medicament delivery device (4, 4a) is available when needed. Moreover, as the video device can be removed from the bulky box (1) it is more likely as compared to the prior art that the patient will also carry the video device (3) so that the instructions for using the medicament delivery device (4, 4a) are available when needed. Thus, the likelihood of improper use of the medicament delivery device (4, 4a) is decreased as compared to the prior art.
In embodiments in which the Kit comprises a video access means (11), the video access means is preferably removably attached to the box (1). This allows carrying the video access means independently of the box (1), which may be more comfortable as compared to carrying the entire box (1).
Preferably, the at least one medicament delivery device (4, 4a) and the video device (3) are attached to the box (1) via holding means. Preferably, the holding means are part of the box (1). The holding means (2b) for the video device (3) are preferably located at the internal surface of the lid (2).
Optionally, the video access means (11) is also attached to the box (1) via holding means. Preferably, the video access means (11) is removably attached to the box (1) independently of the at least one medicament delivery device (4, 4a) and the video device (3) so that the video access means can be removed from the box (1) independently of the at least one medicament delivery device (4, 4a) and the video device (3).
Preferably, the at least one medicament delivery device (4, 4a) and the video device (3) are attached to the box (1) in such a way that access to the at least one medicament delivery device (4, 4a) and to the video device (3) is prevented when the lid (2) is in the closed position. In such a way, the at least one medicament delivery device (4, 4a) and the video device (3) are protected from external forces if the lid (2) is in the closed position.
Preferably, the at least one medicament delivery device (4, 4a) and the video device (3) are removably attached to the box (1) in such a way that the at least one medicament delivery de- vice (4, 4a) and the video device (3) can be removed from the box (1) independently from each other. In such a way, the patient can decide whether the at least one medicament delivery device (4, 4a) or the video device (3) or both the at least one medicament delivery device (4, 4a) and the video device (3) should be carried. For example, for patients that are highly experienced with self-administration of the medicament there is no need to carry the video device (3). On the other hand, it may be advantageous if the video device (3) can be carried separately because it may then be used for training purposes without the need to carry the expensive and potentially sensitive medicament delivery device (4, 4a). Furthermore, it may be disadvantageous for both receiving the instructions provided by the video device (3) and for administering the medicament by use of the medicament delivery device (4, 4a) if the video device (3) and the medicament delivery device (4, 4a) were inseparably connected to each other.
Preferably, the box (1) further comprises a medicament delivery device dummy (6). Such dummy (6) may be useful for testing the way of applying the medicament delivery device (4, 4a). Preferably, the medicament delivery device dummy (6) is constructed analogously to the medicament delivery device (4, 4a). However, the medicament delivery device dummy (6) does not contain any medicament in contrast to the medicament delivery device (4, 4a). Thus, the patient may use the medicament delivery device dummy (6) according to the instructions provided by the video device (3) in order to practice the self-administration of the medicament.
Preferably, the box (1) further comprises a removable casing (5) for the at least one medicament delivery device (4, 4a) and/or the video device (3). Preferably, the casing (5) is a bag (5). Preferably, the casing (5) comprises a first compartment (9) for receiving the at least one medicament delivery device (4, 4a) and a second compartment (10) for receiving the video device (3). This allows that the video device (3) and the medicament delivery device (4, 4a) can be conveniently carried together. In some embodiments, the box (1) further comprises a third compartment for receiving the data storage device (11).
Preferably, the first compartment (9) is closable. Thus, the first compartment (9) is preferably reversibly switchable from an open state to a closed state and from a closed state to an open state. Preferably, the first compartment (9) comprises a lid configured for closing the first compartment (9). Preferably, the lid is movable between an open position, in which access to the at least one medicament delivery device (4, 4a) in the first compartment (9) is possible, and a closed position, in which access to the at least one medicament delivery device (4, 4a) in the first compartment (9) is prevented by the lid. Preferably, the lid is movable between the open position and the closed position via a hinge that connects the lid to the corpus of the casing (5).
Preferably, the casing (5) comprises closing means (7) for reversibly fixing the lid in the closed so that the first compartment (9) is in the closed state. Preferred closing means (7) are selected from the group consisting of magnetic locks, zip fasteners and hook-and-loop fasteners. Particularly preferred closing means (7) are zip fasteners.
Preferably, the second compartment (10) is closable. Thus, the second compartment (10) is preferably reversibly switchable from an open state to a closed state and from a closed state to an open state. Preferably, the casing (5) comprises closing means (8) configured for reversibly closing the second compartment (10), thus for reversibly fixing the second compartment (10) in the closed state. Preferably, the closing means (8) are movable between an open position, in which access to the video device (3) in the second compartment (10) is possible, and a closed position, in which access to the video device (3) in the second compartment (10) is prevented by the closing means (8). Preferred closing means (8) are selected from the group consisting of elastic bands, magnetic locks, zip fasteners and hook-and-loop fasteners. Particularly preferred closing means (8) are elastic bands and magnetic locks. Even more preferred closing means (8) are elastic bands.
In preferred embodiments, both the first compartment (9) and the second compartment (10) are closable.
The box (1) of the present invention may also comprise both a medicament delivery device dummy (6) and a removable casing (5) for the at least one medicament delivery device (4, 4a) and/or the video device (3).
