New Approaches to Patient Compliance
A pill box that keeps track of things
Development of a smart closure for medication packaging to improve patient adherence
Challenge
The system had to be integrated into a highly constrained installation space. At the same time, it was necessary to ensure that medication dispensing was reliably detected and that patients could interact with the packaging intuitively.
Solution
Thanks to Sasse’s expertise in sensor technology, innovative solutions were developed for monitoring the fill level and opening duration of medication packaging, and these were integrated with the necessary connectivity.
Customer Benefits
Thanks to an iterative and flexible development process, a proof of concept was delivered quickly and cost-effectively. The modular approach makes it easy to adapt the system to customer requirements.
CONNECT E-CAP
Connect-e-cap®: Interactive Primary Packaging from Röchling Medical Solutions
For medical treatment to be successful, it is extremely important that patients strictly adhere to their prescribed medication regimen. However, many patients do not adhere to their treatment plans—whether out of stubbornness, negligence, or feeling overwhelmed. Yet, when patients receive immediate feedback on whether they are taking their medication correctly, this has been shown to significantly increase treatment adherence. This is where Connect-e-Cap, the smart packaging solution from Röchling Medical Solutions, comes in.
