- Referring in particular to
FIG. 1 , an infusion system is generally shown. The infusion system comprises an infusion pump or aunit 2, a tube or acatheter 12, and an infusion set 13. As shown, theinfusion pump 12 is connected to the infusion set 13 via thetube 12. Although not shown in the drawing, theinfusion pump 2 comprises a fluid storing device and the medication is delivered from the fluid storing device through theinfusion set 13. - Although not expressly shown in the figures, the
infusion pump 2 has at least one control to control the infusion of medication from fluid storing means. Alternatively, theinfusion pump 2 may have display and controls or be void of both display and controls. Although not shown in the drawings theinfusion pump 2 may be controlled remotely to dispense medication using a remote control device such as a smart phone, a PDA or any other mobile devices. Although not specifically mentioned, the infusion pump 120 may be a one time use pump such that after the dispensing of the medication the pump is disposed. - In accordance with this invention, there are 3 possibilities to carry the infusion pump close to the body: directly stick the infusion pump on the skin using a carrier system such as a patch clip, wear it with different textile carrying systems or integrate it in clothes.
- In order to give maximum flexibility to the users, different carrying systems need to be optimized for different everyday situations (Sport, Office, Driving, etc). Since it is not possible to expect a user to exchange a carrier system depending on the activity they are engaged in, it is important to design an universal easy (dis)connectable interface between the infusion pump and the different carrying systems (patch clip, textile carrying and integrated in clothes systems).
- Multi-wearability of the interface signifies different ways in which the infusion pump can be carried. For example, the infusion pump may be carried in a conventional way, or to adhere the pump on directly on the skin or to carry it with ergonomic textile carrying systems or to integrate it in the everyday clothes. In order to have an interface, the infusion pump may have a mechanical durable part for example a
press button 6 as shown inFIG. 4 is integrated in the infusion pump housing to connect the infusion pump to different carrying systems. - In order to achieve connectibility with different carrying systems it's necessary to separate these the
pump 2 from theinfusion set 13. The disposable insulin path has the unique function to transport insulin as in conventional actual insulin pumps. A conventional fluid path (reservoir-catheter 12-canula) is appropriate to separate the infusion site from the carrying site of the infusion pump and permits the multiwearability of the interface. - The preferred solution to allow multiwearability is to use a conventional fluid path containing a reservoir in the infusion pump and a catheter or tube (12) which connects the reservoir with the canula in the infusion set head (13) as shown in
FIGS. 1 and 2 . This configuration permits to separate the fluid path/canula-skin connection of the carrying system-fluid path/canula connection. - A carrier is an element of the infusion System which attaches or joins the infusion unit (2) to a carrying system. As shown in
FIG. 4 , preferably, theinfusion unit 2 is provided with a mechanical attachment such as press button (6) which is integrated into the infusion unit (2) so as not protrude out of the housing of the infusion unit (2).
