DEVICE DESCRIPTION + TECHNICAL DATA

TAB in TIME is a self-contained electronic device that can be used to help
patients receiving outpatient care to properly take their medications. The
device is fi lled with medications and water in the included cups by the user/
outpatient nursing care service. The integrated computer saves the times/
dates when medication should be taken as entered by the user/outpatient
nursing care service. These are always based
on the physician's current
medication schedule. The device reminds the patient
through audiovisual
output/announcement that it is time to take their medication at the pro-
grammed time. If the patient takes the wrong medication or does not take
their medication, the device can contact a defi ned contact person. In
addition to its connection to mobile wireless networks, a freely accessible
USB slot, WiFi, or a Bluetooth adapter can be connected to the device as
communication media. The device is designed for operation in a 230V
network with the included plug-in power supply.
TAB in TIME is designed exclusively to support patients in taking medication as
prescribed by physicians. It does not guarantee that they will take medications
correctly, if it is programmed incorrectly. The device does not prevent the
patient from consciously taking their medications incorrectly.
