A treatment administration unit comprising: a sampling mechanism operable to take a sample from a patient and test a property of the sample relating to a bodily condition of the patient; a microprocessor for operating the sampling mechanism and determining the bodily condition of the patient from the property tested by the sampling mechanism, wherein the microprocessor includes a treatment protocol memory for an individual patient that stores parameters for determining when the bodily condition determined by testing the sample property presents an emergency situation to the patient; an administration mechanism operable by the microprocessor to administer to the patient a substance effective to treat the bodily condition; a user interface under control of the microprocessor for accepting input from a human; timer circuitry for measuring a time elapsed from the determination by the microprocessor that the bodily condition presents an emergency situation to the patient a wireless communication device under the control of the microprocessor, and circuitry for detecting the location of the unit; characterized in that: the wireless communication device automatically transmits information to a healthcare facility particularly equipped to treat the bodily condition presenting an emergency situation to the patient regarding the existence of the bodily condition and the location of the unit if (i) a given time period elapses before a start signal is generated by enabling operation of the administration mechanism, or (ii) a given time period elapses before a termination signal is generated by the unit in response to a human response. a sampling mechanism operable to take a sample from a patient and test a property of the sample relating to a bodily condition of the patient; a microprocessor for operating the sampling mechanism and determining the bodily condition of the patient from the property tested by the sampling mechanism, wherein the microprocessor includes a treatment protocol memory for an individual patient that stores parameters for determining when the bodily condition determined by testing the sample property presents an emergency situation to the patient; an administration mechanism operable by the microprocessor to administer to the patient a substance effective to treat the bodily condition; a user interface under control of the microprocessor for accepting input from a human; timer circuitry for measuring a time elapsed from the determination by the microprocessor that the bodily condition presents an emergency situation to the patient a wireless communication device under the control of the microprocessor, and circuitry for detecting the location of the unit; characterized in that: the wireless communication device automatically transmits information to a healthcare facility particularly equipped to treat the bodily condition presenting an emergency situation to the patient regarding the existence of the bodily condition and the location of the unit if (i) a given time period elapses before a start signal is generated by enabling operation of the administration mechanism, or (ii) a given time period elapses before a termination signal is generated by the unit in response to a human response.
