Medical skin mountable device
First Claim
1. A medical device, comprising a transcutaneous device unit and a separate reservoir unit, the transcutaneous device unit comprising:
- a transcutaneous device, anda mounting surface comprising a skin adhering adhesive, wherein the reservoir unit comprises;
a reservoir adapted to contain a fluid drug, andan expelling assembly adapted for cooperation with the reservoir to expel fluid drug out of the reservoir and through the skin of the subject via the transcutaneous device,wherein the transcutaneous device unit and the reservoir unit are secured to each other in a situation of use,wherein the expelling assembly is activated or allowed to be activated to deliver fluid from the reservoir when the transcutaneous device unit and the reservoir unit are secured to each other and de-activated to stop fluid flow from the reservoir when the units are released from each other, andwherein the activation occurs by engaging an actuator on the transcutaneous device unit and deactivation occurs by disengaging the actuator.
