Abstract: L'invention porte sur un appareil de détection de motifs de non-compliance sur une série de feuilles alvéolées utilisées renvoyées auparavant par le même patient, lequel appareil lit un code (2) sur chaque feuille alvéolée (1) fournissant, entre autres, des informations concernant la position de chaque alvéole sur la feuille alvéolée. Ces informations sont passées par le lecteur de code (4), par l'intermédiaire d'une clé (15), à une image (5) de la feuille alvéolée apparaissant sur une moitié (14) d'un écran divisé (6). L'écran (14) affiche une image d'une feuille alvéolée dont les positions d'alvéole sont marquées par des points ou des bagues (8). Au moyen de la clé (15), qui peut prendre la forme d'une manette de jeu, une image d'un disque (9) peut être placée sur chacune des positions d'alvéole où se trouve une alvéole non ouverte. L'image de la feuille alvéolée conjointement avec les disques est ensuite transférée par actionnement d'une clé (10) à la seconde moitié (11) de l'écran divisé (6) sur lequel elle est superposée sur une pile légèrement décalée (13) de feuilles alvéolées utilisées renvoyées auparavant par le même patient. Les positions des disques (9) sont comparées par l'appareil avec des positions correspondantes sur des feuilles alvéolées renvoyées auparavant et, si une coïncidence est détectée, l'appareil produit un changement dans l'aspect du disque correspondant sur la feuille alvéolée sur le dessus de la pile. Un changement dans l'aspect du disque suggère qu'il peut exister un motif de non-compliance qui peut ensuite être analysé davantage.
