The present invention provides apparatus and systems for enabling and monitoring injection of medicinal fluids into a subject. The invention includes a housing for a prefilled syringe, the housing incorporating means for generating and sending signals as parts of the syringe cooperate to deliver the fluids. The signals may be transmitted from a transmitter on the housing as radiowaves to a receiver, which may be conveniently located on a spaced device, such as a mobile phone. The mobile phone or other receiving device incorporates computer software to receive, store the signals from the transmitter as a record of the injection process. The computer software may include information about the medicine, the injection process, and other information relevant to a treatment regime. In some cases, the receiving device may transmit information stored by the computer software for storage and analysis. |
