Sensirion product announcement: miniature liquid flow sensor platform for
subcutaneous drug delivery

In the changing landscape of the healthcare industry, Sensirion's SLD3x
series contributes to the improvement of subcutaneous drug delivery with
miniature, and highly accurate digital liquid flow sensors. Customizable
solutions ensure optimal dosing and enhanced patient safety for various
subcutaneous therapies.

Stäfa, Switzerland - The healthcare industry has undergone a significant
transformation in recent years, with an increasing focus on patient and home
care. This shift has been mirrored in the field of drug administration, with
a decrease in hospital stays for certain treatments. The transition from
intravenous to subcutaneous injections using large volume injectors (LVIs)
has been a key driver of this change.

LVIs are wearable devices that enable continuous subcutaneous drug delivery.
They reduce pressure on clinical staff, save costs, and improve patient
comfort. Some LVIs require precise dosing of the delivered drug, which in
turn requires the pump to be controlled by a flow sensor. Moreover, bubbles,
empty lines, occlusion detection, and drug delivery confirmation are
desirable to improve patient safety and the regulatory compliance of the
device.

To meet these needs, Sensirion is developing the SLD3x platform - a series
of digital liquid flow sensors to combine accurate flow measurement,
miniature size, and compatibility with several therapies. This makes it the
ideal solution for medical devices manufactured in large quantities, where
an accurate, disposable liquid flow sensor is required. While flow
measurement is at the heart of the SLD3x platform, it also provides a stream
of data that can be used to detect occlusions, identify in-line air bubbles,
flag up pump malfunctions and measure liquid temperature.

"The SLD3x series features models with maximum flow rates ranging from 100
µl/min to 5 ml/min to meet the varying dosing requirements of different
drugs and treatment protocols. We are happy to discuss the customization of
sensors to meet the unique needs of specific therapies." says Dr. Konrad
Domanski, Product Director Liquid Flow Sensors at Sensirion.
