Schreiner MediPharm, a global provider of functional label solutions for the healthcare industry, has introduced the Smart Syringe Box, a tech-enabled solution for tracking syringes administered in clinical trials. Providing enhanced monitoring precision, the company’s Smart Syringe Box employs integrated electronics that reliably report trial metrics digitally. The solution can also incorporate a temperature monitoring feature, benefiting the safety and efficacy of trials involving temperature-sensitive biopharmaceuticals.

Schreiner MediPharm’s Smart Syringe Box exemplifies how modern packaging solutions can optimize clinical trials via digital therapy monitoring. Due to a cardboard layer with easy-to-open perforated compartments, the removal of each syringe from its respective compartment can be precisely captured and timestamped. All data are automatically stored in the Smart Syringe Box and transmitted to a database via NFC, Bluetooth or smartphone app. The solution’s optional temperature monitoring feature provides an additional layer of safety and accuracy – allowing for the seamless documentation of temperature-critical biopharmaceuticals and other cold chain-dependent drugs during transportation and storage.

The adherence data generated via the Smart Syringe Box support both therapy tracking and adjustment of individual therapy plans. Combined with the solution’s dedicated software, the resulting central tracking capabilities facilitate data documentation and analysis. Notably, Schreiner MediPharm customizes the solution’s integrated conductive lines and electronic components to the overall packaging design and syringe removal compartments, best ensuring reliable functionality and ease of use. Downstream, scalable and end-to-end automated production ensure standardized, consistent product quality.

The Smart Syringe Box offers numerous benefits for clinical trials: enhanced data quality, lower failure rates due to non-adherence, and optimized processes that reduce costs and accelerate the approval process for new drugs. At the same time, the need for manual documentation is eliminated, enabling higher flexibility and efficiency for complex trials. As a smart packaging system, the Smart Syringe Box combines technology, safety and efficiency.
