More Information
Summary:Described is an electronics assembly with pressure or force sensing capabilities for use in a drug delivery device. The electronics assembly includes a processor, a sensor arranged to measure the force applied by a drive mechanism to drive a medicament from a cartridge, a wireless module to which an external device can be paired, a power module arranged to supply power to the assembly, and memory storing instructions for the processor to perform. The instructions include receiving a measurement signal during the drug delivery operation, and determining if the dose of the medicament was expelled from the drug delivery device based on the received measurement signal.
