A method for determining a region in which the actual concentration is located, in a medium, of a substrate made up of any molecule likely to undergo catalysed oxidation-reduction by a catalyst. The method includes the following steps: taking at least one group of at least two biosensors, each biosensor having a calibration curve of the signal induced by the oxidation-reduction reaction and having identical initial portions of their calibration curves up to a concentration value of the substrate from which the measurement of the signal differ; and when more than one group is present, the biosensors in different groups having different calibration curves without identical initial portions; placing the biosensors in contact with the medium; measuring the signal induced by the oxidation or reduction reaction for each biosensor in the group/groups; comparing all the signal values produced by the biosensors and following the method described in the description.

A health monitoring urinalysis system that monitors several health indicators from human urine is provided. The system includes a temperature sensor and several electrochemical sensors that are installed in a urine collection basin, such as, a toilet or a urinal and may automatically collect urine information after each use. The system collects data during the routine and normal use of a urine collection basin. The system includes a control and measurement unit that may be installed outside the urine collection basin. The control and measurement unit receives sensor measurements and transmits the measurements to one or more remote electronic devices. The remote electronic devices and/or the processor of the control and measurement unit perform data analysis, provide diagnostic, and generate health alerts. The system performs recurrent health monitoring after the urine collection basin is used and may detect abnormal conditions at early stages, in addition to a routine urine test.

Systems for applying a transcutaneous monitor to a person can include a telescoping assembly, a sensor, and a base with adhesive to couple the sensor to skin. The sensor can be located within the telescoping assembly while the base protrudes from a distal end of the system. The system can be configured to couple the sensor to the base by compressing the telescoping assembly.

Method, device and system for providing consistent and reliable glucose response information to physiological changes and/or activities is provided to improve glycemic control and health management.

Disclosed embodiments include methods and systems including a receiver unit of a glucose monitoring system. The receiver is configured for communicating with a remote transmitter unit coupled with a glucose sensor. The glucose sensor generates data signals associated with a glucose level. The receiver unit includes a processor, a display, and a memory for storing instructions which, when executed by the processor: access a transmitter key associated with the remote transmitter unit; transmit a command to the remote transmitter unit after verifying the transmitter key; receive communication packets from the remote transmitter unit including a first data segment with data signals indicative of the glucose level and a second data segment with information corresponding to a remaining life of the remote transmitter unit; estimate a remaining life of the remote transmitter unit; process the data signals; and output the estimated remaining life and the processed data signals for display.

Systems and methods described provide dynamic and intelligent ways to change the required level of user interaction during use of a monitoring device. The systems and methods generally relate to real time switching between a first or initial mode of user interaction and a second or new mode of user interaction. In some cases, the switching will be automatic and transparent to the user, and in other cases user notification may occur. The mode switching generally affects the user’s interaction with the device, and not just internal processing. The mode switching may relate to calibration modes, data transmission modes, control modes, or the like.
