DRUG DELIVERY PLATFORM UTILIZING HYDROGEL PUMPING MECHANISM
First Claim
1. A drug delivery platform for delivering a controlled infusion of a drug to an individual, comprising:
- a reservoir for receiving the drug therein;
a pressure source engageable with the reservoir, the pressure source movable between a first configuration and a second configuration wherein the pressure source exerts a pressure on the reservoir to urge the drug therefrom;
an output conduit having an input and output;
an actuation mechanism operatively connected to the pressure source and the output conduit, the actuation mechanism movable between a non-actuated position and an actuated position wherein pressure source moves from the first configuration to the second configuration and wherein the input of the output conduit communicates with the drug and the output of the output conduit is receivable in the individual.

Abstract
A drug delivery platform is provided for delivering a controlled infusion of a drug to an individual. The drug delivery platform includes a reservoir for receiving the drug therein and a pressure source engageable with the reservoir. The pressure source is movable between a first configuration and a second configuration wherein the pressure source exerts a pressure on the reservoir to urge the drug therefrom. An output conduit is provided for transmitting the drug into the individual. An actuation mechanism is operatively connected to the pressure source and the output conduit. The actuation mechanism is movable between a non-actuated position and an actuated position wherein pressure source moves from the first configuration to the second configuration and wherein the input of the output conduit communicates with the drug and the output end of the output conduit is receivable in the individual.
