Description | A novel medical device that extends the benefits of patient-controlled intravenous analgesia to a non-invasive oral format by empowering patients to self-administer liquid pain medication orally within predefined limits having no dependency on indwelling catheters or nursing resources and without delay in administration. |
Target Impact | The device will enhance patient safety and optimize opioid control in hospital and at home. |
Project Lead's Vision | Develop a secure device that can achieve visibility and accountability with a significant impact in the delivery and deactivation of pain medication and non-pain medication to surgical and non-surgical patients |
