Research into Devices for administering Fertility Treatments

As a consequence of this technological breakthrough in the treatment of chronic diseases and growth hormone deficiency, pen devices were identified for testing with a view to fertility treatments. The results of these tests, which had a significant impact in the development of the pre-filled pen, revealed that, for the group of patients tested, the ideal delivery device would:

  • Have the fewest possible steps to learn: as patients only undertake treatment for a short period
  • Be pre-filled: as this requires minimum preparation
  • Have a transparent cartridge: through which the actual dose could be seen and monitored

Prefilled Pen devices therefore represent the ultimate technological breakthrough as far as ease of use and accuracy of dosing is concerned.
