SYSTÈMES, APPAREILS ET PROCÉDÉS POUR ENCOURAGER LA ROTATION D'UN SITE D'INJECTION ET PRÉVENIR LA LIPODYSTROPHIE DUE À DES INJECTIONS RÉPÉTÉES DANS UNE ZONE DU CORPS
Systems and methods encourage users to rotate injection sites and avoid lipodystrophy. Sleeves and/or lost-tooth gear dials and/or microswitches in or on injection pens or their caps, on vials, and on other portable devices manually adjust an indicator before or after an injection to show a current or next injection site in accordance with a site rotation plan. Injected medicine packaging and related printed indicia encourage site rotation. Optical devices employing optical mouse or projection technology help locate and/or distribute injection sites within a body area. A mobile phone app tracks injections and locations to select next injection site, and can use imaging to locate a target injection site and optionally diagnose lipodystrophic conditions and record them. Tactile and print media educational tools are presented to help users palpate and identify lipos in body areas having injection sites.
