Abstract: A dose monitoring system for mounting on an injection pen having a body and a dose setting wheel defined at the end of the body. The dose monitoring system includes a magnet configured to be attached to an outer surface of the dose setting wheel, a housing configured to be attached to an outer surface of the body of the injection pen, the housing includes an integrated control unit and at least one magnetometer in electrical connection with the integrated control unit, the integrated control unit, when the housing is mounted on the injection pen, being configured to register at least one magnetic field sensed by the at least one magnetometer when the magnet co-rotates with the dose setting wheel during setting of a dose by a user on the injection pen, the integrated control unit being further configured, when the housing is mounted on the injection pen, to calculate a dose set by the user of the injection pen from the at least one magnetic field registered with the integrated control unit.

Abstract: The invention relates to a dose control system configured for an injectable drug delivery device. The device comprises a substantially disk-shaped diametral single-dipole magnet removably attachable, or permanently fixed, to a rotatable dose wheel at a proximal extremity of a drug delivery device body, a housing removably attachable to the proximal extremity of the drug delivery body and comprising at least a first and a second magnetic field measurement means configured to measure the magnetic field produced by the magnet. An integrated control unit is connected to the magnetic field measurement means and is configured to process information received therefrom. The magnetic field measurement means are located in the housing in a displaced axial relationship relative to the longitudinal axis of the drug delivery body and the magnet. The magnet is configured to co-rotate with the dose setting wheel around the longitudinal axis of the drug delivery body and the integrated control unit is further configured to provide a normalized vector with regard to the displaced axial relationship of the magnetic field measurement means, said normalized vector being derived from the measured magnetic field generated by the rotation of the magnet and measured by the magnetic field measurement means. A dose setting is calculated from said normalized vector.
