A medical device communication system with a modular design to communicate with different types of medical devices, such as physiological sensors. The modular design is implemented using an extensible software library that provides a uniform framework for various applications or third party applications access to medical device data. The modular design also allows for regulated and unregulated portions of the system to be integrated into the system while allowing each portion to be updated separately. The regulated portion of the system may include components, such as sensors and the software library, that are subject to regulatory approval while the unregulated portion may include applications that are not subject to regulatory approval. Thus, the system enables a third party application developer to avoid having to submit the application to a regulatory agency for an application making use of the sensor data.

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.

An apparatus for measuring patient data includes a frame having a plurality of electrode hubs. Each hub can include one or more electrode members. The frame can be configured to receive a head of a patient. Each of the electrode hubs can have a single electrode member or a plurality of electrode members that extend from or are connected to an outer member for contacting a scalp of the head of the patient. The outer member can have at least one circuit configured to transmit data received by at least one of the electrode members to a measurement device via a wireless communication connection (e.g. Bluetooth, near field communication, etc.) or a wired communication connection.

A multi-parameter patient monitoring device rack can dock a plurality of patient monitor modules and can communicate with a separate display unit. A signal processing unit can be incorporated into the device rack. A graphics processing unit can be attached to the display unit. The device rack and the graphic display unit can have improved heat dissipation and drip-proof features. The multi-parameter patient monitoring device rack can provide interchangeability and versatility to a multi-parameter patient monitoring system by allowing use of different display units and monitoring of different combinations of parameters. A dual-use patient monitor module can have its own display unit configured for displaying one or more parameters when used as a stand-alone device, and can be docked into the device rack when a handle on the module is folded down.

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 acquiring physiological data from a patient, the system comprising: a smartphone configured for wireless communication; an adapter for releasably mounting to the smartphone; a sensor module for releasably mounting to the adapter, the sensor module comprising at least one sensor for acquiring physiological data from the patient; and a software app running on the smartphone for (i) wirelessly controlling operation of the sensor module and wirelessly receiving the physiological data from the sensor module, and (ii) wirelessly communicating with a remote location.

A charging station for providing power to a physiological monitoring device can include a charging bay and a tray. The charging bay can include a charging port configured to receive power from a power source. The tray can be positioned within and movably mounted relative to the charging bay. The tray can be further configured to secure the physiological monitoring device and move between a first position and a second position. In the first position, the tray can be spaced away from the charging port, and, in the second position, the tray can be positioned proximate the charging port, thereby allowing the physiological monitoring device to electrically connect to the charging port.

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.

A system is provided for integrating at least one portable computing device with a resuscitative medical device such as a defibrillator. The system may include a carrying case coupled to the resuscitative medical device. The carrying case may include a storage space for the at least one portable computing device and a wireless charging system for charging the at least one portable computing device. The system may be configured to enable secure data transfer between each of the devices, including data communication and data storage. A processor of the resuscitative medical device may be configured to activate the wireless charging system and charge the at least one portable computing device under certain circumstances. The processor may further be configured to prioritize or optimize charging and data transfer between the resuscitative medical device and each of multiple portable computing devices.

A wearable article (1) includes a sensor assembly (104) for sensing biosignals of a wearer of the wearable article, and an electronic device (102) that can be attached to the sensor assembly to receive and the process biosignals. The electronic device is detachable from the garment and includes a housing (128a, 128b). The electronic device is retained in place by means of a magnet (132) within the housing which cooperates with a magnet on the garment. The sensor assembly includes a sensing electrodes and conductors (112; 122a) which couple the sensing electrodes to an interface that is configured to couple the sensed biosignals to the electronic device. The electronic device attaches to the garment at the interface. The electronic device includes one or more contacts (138b) which engage with the interface at the conductors so that biosignals can be coupled to the electronic device. The garment can also include a locating ring (130) to help locate the electronic device on the garment. The electronic device can be easily attached by a wearer, for example with the use of only one hand.
