About
Approximately 34 subjects will be enrolled in an unblinded cross-over design. For one week, they will use the adaptive pen device and for the next week, they will use just the insulin (or other medication) pen. This will be repeated for another one week period each. At the end of each week, the subjects will fill out a questionnaire regarding their experiences and any suggestions for improvements for the design of the pen device.
Full description
This study is of an unblinded crossover design. Each patient will be randomly assigned to initiate a one week observation period with either the pen alone or the pen with the device. The following week, the patient will switch to the other assignment. This will be repeated one more time for a total of two weeks with the device and two weeks without it.
At the end of every week, the patients will be given a questionnaire to fill out. Questions will include a measurement of their satisfaction with their insulin (or other medication) delivery system for that week. Patients will be instructed to continue their usual dosage of medication as prescribed by their physician. If the patients have any problems with the device or feel uncomfortable with it, they are instructed to discontinue use of the device and continue using their pen as usual.
The patients may keep the device at the end of the study. The questionnaires that the patients fill out will be the primary source documents.
