Research abstract
Sarcos Research Corporation proposes the development of an electronically-controlled, multipathway, drug delivery patch. The patch would be worn under the pilot's or crew member's flight suit and would allow the controlled administration of drugs electronically selected by the user. Drug modules and a variety of delivery methods would allow for a wide selection of drugs and delivery protocols Drugs would be administered in small doses to enable rapid cessation of drug bioavailability when the drug is no longer needed. The drug delivery patch could ultimately be interfaced to a sensory system allowing the automatic administration of drugs to control medical or physiological conditions. Prior to the development of the autonomous system, the patch will be controlled by a reusable control panel.
