The present it relates to a sensor applicator assembly for a continuous glucose monitoring system and provides a sensor applicator assembly for a continuous glucose monitoring system, which is manufactured with a sensor module assembled inside an applicator, thereby minimizing additional work by a user for attaching the sensor module to the body and allowing the sensor module to be attached to the body simply by operating the applicator, and thus can be used more conveniently. A battery is built in the sensor module and a separate transmitter is connected to the sensor module so as to receive power supply from the sensor module and be continuously used semi-permanently, thereby making the assembly economical. The sensor module and the applicator are used as disposables, thereby allowing accurate and safe use and convenient maintenance.

A system for installing a sensor, comprising: a puncture device comprising: a casing defining a cavity; an elongated member a sharp end; and a sensor assembly for measuring data about the body, the sensor assembly comprising: a sensing unit comprising a sensor for measuring the data and being engageable with the elongated member; a data unit for collecting the data, the data collecting unit being receivable within the cavity of the casing; and a communication cable extending between the sensing unit and the data collecting unit for transmitting the data to the data unit; wherein the sensor assembly is removably securable to the puncture device by inserting the data unit in the cavity of the casing and engaging together the sensing unit and the elongated member, the communication cable being tensed when the sensor assembly is secured to the puncture device.

A method may include identifying a simulated three-dimensional representation corresponding to an internal anatomy of a subject based on a match between a computed two-dimensional image corresponding to the simulated three-dimensional representation and a two-dimensional image depicting the internal anatomy of the subject. Simulations of the electrical activities measured by a recording device with standard lead placement and nonstandard lead placement may be computed based on the simulated three-dimensional representation. A clinical electrogram and/or a clinical vectorgram for the subject may be corrected based on a difference between the simulations of electrical activities to account for deviations arising from patient-specific lead placement as well as variations in subject anatomy and pathophysiology.

A gripping apparatus includes: a temperature adjusting device held in a substrate wherein the substrate defines an open region; a phase change material held within the open region and thermally coupled with the temperature adjusting device such that a temperature change in the temperature adjusting device causes a temperature change in the phase change material; and a controller connected to the temperature adjusting device and configured to send a signal to the temperature adjusting device to change its temperature and thereby change the temperature of the phase change material that is thermally coupled with the temperature adjusting device. The phase change material is either in a solid state and configured to grip a stick or in a liquid state and the phase change material and configured to loosen its grip on the stick such that the stick is capable of moving through the phase change material.

A method for assembling a physiological signal monitoring apparatus on a body surface of a living body is provided, wherein the physiological signal monitoring apparatus is used to measure a physiological signal and includes a sensor module and a transmitter. The method comprises steps of: (a) detaching the bottom cover from the housing to expose the sticker from the bottom opening; (b) while holding the housing, causing the adhesive pad to be attached to the body surface; (c) applying a pressing force on the housing to cause the sensor module to be detached from the implantation module and the signal sensing end to be implanted under the body surface; (d) removing the implanting device while leaving the sensor module on the body surface; and (e) placing the transmitter on the base so that the signal output end is electrically connected to the port.

The present invention discloses a holder carrying thereon a sensor to measure a physiological signal of an analyte in a biological fluid, wherein the sensor has a signal detection end and a signal output end, and the holder includes an implantation hole being a channel for implanting the sensor and containing a part of the sensor, a fixing indentation containing the sensor, a filler disposed in the fixing indentation to retain the sensor in the holder, and a blocking element disposed between the implantation hole and the fixing indentation to hold the sensor in the holder and restrict the filler in the fixing indentation.

A biosensing device includes a sensor module and an electric signal transducer. The sensor module includes a biosensor adapted for measuring a biosignal of a host, and a fixed seat including a conducting member that is electrically connected to the biosensor. The electric signal transducer is for receiving and sending the biosignal measured by the biosensor, is coupled to the sensor module, and includes an electric signal unit electrically connected to the conducting member, and a battery connected to the electric signal unit. The electric signal unit has two electrical contacts that cooperatively define a switch. The battery provides power supply to the biosensor when the electric signal transducer is coupled to the sensor module.

The present disclosure relates to an insertion guide needle for a continuous glucose monitoring system. The insertion guide needle makes an incision in the skin by means of point-contact with the skin during a skin insertion process, and allows expanded incision of the skin continuously thereafter, thereby minimizing pain which may occur during the skin insertion process and thus relieving aversion or tension when the continuous glucose monitoring system is used. During a process of expanded incision of the skin, the insertion guide needle allows expanded incision continuously and gradually in the width direction and thickness direction, thereby reducing skin resistance during the expanded incision process and further reducing pain. In addition, during the expanded incision process, since the entire incision area is formed by an incision, the insertion guide needle is simply inserted along the incision area after a predetermined insertion section, such that almost no pain occurs during the insertion process.
