A system for confirmation of fluid delivery to a patient at the clinical point of use is provided. The system includes a wearable electronic device. The wearable electronic device has a housing; at least one imaging sensor associated with the housing; a data transmission interface; a data reporting accessory for providing data to the user; a microprocessor for managing the at least one imaging sensor, the data transmission interface, and the data reporting accessory; and a program for acquiring and processing images from the at least one imaging sensor. The system further includes a fluid delivery apparatus; and one or more identification tags attached to or integrally formed with the fluid delivery apparatus. The program processes an image captured by the at least one imaging sensor to identify the one or more identification tags and acquires fluid delivery apparatus information from the one or more identification tags.

A system for adjusting blood glucose level including an insulin delivery device configured to release insulin into the body of a person, and an EEG monitor having an EEG sensing part including EEG electrodes. The EEG monitor can be arranged in the ear region of the person with the EEG sensing part arranged subcutaneously at the scalp or arranged in the ear canal. The EEG monitor includes an EEG signal processor arranged at the ear and adapted for identifying onset of hypoglycemia. The system further includes a wireless link between the EEG monitor and the insulin delivery device. The EEG monitor is configured to submit a warning signal to the insulin delivery device if an upcoming onset of hypoglycemia is identified. The warning message will cause the insulin delivery device to restrict insulin delivery for a predetermined time, and a warning is provided to the person or to a caregiver.

An apparatus for insertion of a medical device in the skin of a subject is provided, as well as methods of inserting medical devices. Embodiments include removing a substantially cylindrical cap from an inserter to expose a substantially cylindrical sleeve, removing a cover from a substantially cylindrical container holding sensor components, and fitting the sensor components into the inserter.

A patient unique identifier system is provided. An example system includes a database storing patient information; a radio-frequency identification (RFID) tag associated with a patient, the RFID tag storing an indication of an identification of the patient and encrypted biometric data captured by sensors of a wearable device worn by the patient; and an RFID reader device configured to: read the RFID tag and retrieve, based on reading the RFID tag, the indication of the identification of the patient and the encrypted biometric data without decrypting the encrypted biometric data; send the encrypted biometric data to a server to be decrypted and stored in the database; access patient information associated with stored in the database based on the retrieved indication of the identification of the patient; and provide the information associated with the patient to a user of the RFID reader device.

Blood sample collection and processing system (1) using a tube (102) and a holder (104) is described herein. The tube (102) includes a plasma separation system (114) for converting a whole blood sample into a plasma sample without using centrifugation. The plasma separation system (114) may comprise a microfluidic separation system such as a lateral cavity acoustic transducer system (113). The tube (102) is thereafter placed in the holder (104) for analysis regarding the plasma. The results of the analysis may be displayed to the user via a display screen (134) or an indicator of a different kind, to allow the user to determine whether the sample is sufficient with regards to volume, and/or quality for further use. Inasmuch as the analysis system (132) performs a rapid analysis of the plasma sample, the patient is still present and if the sample is insufficient, the healthcare provider can take another whole blood sample, counsel the client regarding the blood sample, or examine the patient further.
