METHOD FOR TRANSDERMAL ADMINISTRATION OF INSULIN AND DEVICE FOR IMPLEMENTING IT Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC A61M37/00 A61K38/28 A61P3/10 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention refers to medicine, particularly to treating diabetes. That is ensured by the method for transdermal administration of insulin. The method involves placing a flat applicator pre-soaked in an insulin solution in the form of a porous titanium nickelide plate of the thickness of 0.2 to 1 mm on skin. The plate and skin are heated by an infrared light source, while a procedure length is specified within 30 to 120 minutes. A device used for implementing the method comprises a body with a power supply, a heating element and the flat applicator pre-saturated with insulin. The applicator represents the removable porous titanium nickelide plate of the thickness of 0.2 to 1 mm forming one of the body walls. The heating element is represented by the infrared light source in the form of a light-emitting diode set integrated into the body above the plate.

EFFECT: invention provides the more comfortable procedure by eliminating injuring factors, simplifying the power supply configuration, as well as making the applicator process more ordinary, including a possibility to implement the process in everyday life.
