ЭЛЕКТРОКИНЕТИЧЕСКАЯ СИСТЕМА ДОСТАВКИ, УСТАНАВЛИВАЕМАЯ НА ПАЛЬЦЕ, ДЛЯ С АМОСТОЯТЕЛЬНОГО ВВЕДЕНИЯ МЕДИКАМЕНТОВ И СПОСОБЫ ДЛЯ ЭТОГО

摘要

An electrokinetic delivery system for personal use in self-administration of a medicament to a treatment site on an individual includes a device shaped to conform with the shape of a portion of an individual's finger from a tip thereof to a location past the first finger joint. A self-contained power source is carried by the device and a first electrode is carried by the device adjacent a distal end portion thereof and the tip of the individual's finger. The first electrode is in electrical contact with the power source. A second electrode is carried by the device for contact with the individual's finger. The second electrode is in electrical contact with the power source. Upon application of the first electrode over a treatment site with the medicament disposed between the first electrode and the treatment site and completion of an electrical circuit through the individual's body and said electrode, the device applies current for electrokinetically driving the medicament into the treatment site.
