Disclosed embodiments relate to a collection device for bodily fluids comprising a tubular material with a first end and second end. A portion of the first end is configured to be secured to a user and the tubular material may be folded over itself to form a first sheath and a second sheath. In some applications, the fluid collection devices described may be secured to a user using interlocking loops.

The urine collection device is designed to be attached to a drain tube. The device may include a base secured to the pelvic area of a wearer, the base having a central opening. Connected to the base is a sheath. The central opening and the sheath can have complementary attachment components whereby the sheath may be attached to the base. The sheath includes an opening and attaches to a drain tube. A second sheath may be disposed outboard of the first sheath and secured to the base in a similar manner. In some embodiments the drain tube may be connected and disconnected from the sheath or sheaths without disturbing the installation of the device. One or more check valves may be included for assuring one-way flow in the drain tube.

Embodiments described herein relate to an analyte monitoring device having a user interface with a display and a plurality of actuators. The display is configured to render a plurality of display screens, including a home screen and an alert screen. The home screen is divided into a plurality of simultaneously displayed panels, with a first panel displays a rate of change of continuously monitored analyte levels in interstitial fluid, a second panel simultaneously displays a current analyte level and an analyte trend indicator, and a third panel displays status information of a plurality of components of the device. When an alarm condition is detected, the display renders the alert screen in place of the home screen, the alert screen displaying information corresponding to the detected alarm condition. Furthermore, the actuators are configured to affect further output of the analyte monitoring device corresponding to the detected condition.

The present invention relates generally to systems and methods for measuring an analyte in a host. More particularly, the present invention relates to systems and methods for transcutaneous measurement of glucose in a host.

A system using combined electrocardiography (EKG) and photoplethysmography (PPG) sensing, to determine venous oxygen saturation is described. The system uses averaging of similar pulses based on Prior (or n−1) R-to-R pulse wave duration, and current (or n) R-to-R pulse wave duration for evaluation of the metabolic reserve and/or stress of the patient.

A safety needle device includes a housing including a passageway with a needle cannula extending therefrom. A shielding member is movable between a first position in which a puncture tip of the needle cannula is exposed therefrom and a second position in which the puncture tip of the needle cannula is encompassed therein. The shielding member is maintained in the first position against a biasing force which biases the shielding member toward the second position. A fluid and/or a temperature activation material is associated with the shielding member and is adapted to deform upon contact with a fluid medium and/or a certain temperature or temperature range. The fluid medium flowing through the needle cannula causes the fluid activation material to deform, such as through expansion, thereby releasing the shielding member from the first position and allowing a drive member to bias the shielding member toward the second position.
