APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR SELF-ADMINISTRATION OF VACCINES AND OTHER MEDICAMENTS
First Claim
1. An apparatus, comprising:
- a housing;
a medicament container disposed within the housing, the medicament container configured to contain a dose of a medicament;
an activation mechanism including an energy storage member configured to produce a force to deliver the dose of the medicament into a body; and
an electronic circuit system coupled to the housing, the electronic circuit system configured to calculate a stability parameter associated with the medicament, the electronic circuit system configured to produce an output associated with the stability parameter when the electronic circuit system is actuated.

Abstract
A medicament delivery device includes a housing, a medicament container disposed within the housing, an activation mechanism, a cover and an electronic circuit system. The activation mechanism includes an energy storage member configured to produce a force to deliver the dose of a medicament and/or vaccine. The cover is configured to receive at least a portion of the housing. The electronic circuit system is coupled to the housing such that a protrusion of the cover electrically isolates a battery from a portion of the electronic circuit system when the portion of the housing is received by the cover. The electronic circuit system is configured to be electrically coupled to the battery and to produce a recorded speech output when the portion of the housing is at least partially removed from the cover. The electronic circuit system configured to produce a signal when the activation mechanism is actuated.

9. A method, comprising:
-
moving a first portion of an actuator of a medicament injector to actuate an energy storage member such that the energy storage member produces a force to deliver a dose of a medicament from the medicament injector; moving a second portion of the actuator of the medicament container to move a switch of an electronic circuit system from a first state to a second state, the electronic circuit system coupled to at least one of the medicament injector or a cover, the cover configured to contain at least a portion of the medicament injector, the cover configured to be connected to a computing device; and transmitting, in response to the moving the switch, a wireless signal from the electronic circuit system such that the computing device produces an output - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)
