An ingestible sensor for measuring medication adherence
Download as DOCX, PDF•0 likes•67 views
The document describes an ingestible sensor that was designed to be swallowed daily by patients to measure medication adherence in real time. The sensor allows patients, families, and doctors to monitor whether medications are being taken as prescribed and to relate compliance to health metrics. Test results are provided that demonstrate the safety and reliability of the sensor through chemical, toxicology, mechanical, and electrical tests as well as data from clinical trials with over 400 patients.

An ingestible sensor for measuring medication adherence
- 1. An Ingestible Sensor for Measuring Medication Adherence Abstract: In this paper, we describe the design and performance of the first integrated-circuit microsensor developed for daily ingestion by patients. The ingestible sensor is a device that allows patients, families, and physicians to measure medication ingestion and adherence patterns in real time, relate pharmaceutical compliance to important physiologic metrics, and take appropriate action in response to a patient's adherence pattern and specific health metrics. The design and theory of operation of the device are presented, along with key in-vitro and in-vivo performance results. The chemical, toxicological, mechanical, and electrical safety tests performed to establish the device's safety profile are described in detail. Finally, aggregate results from multiple clinical trials involving 412 patients and 5656 days of system usage are presented to demonstrate the device's reliability and performance as part of an overall digital health feedback system.
