METHOD OF MANUFACTURING SENSOR TRANSMITTER FOR CONTINUOUS BLOOD GLUCOSE MEASUREMENT
The present disclosure relates to a manufacturing method for a sensor transmitter for continuous glucose monitoring and, more particularly, to a manufacturing method for a sensor transmitter, capable of generating quality control information in which production information of a sensor and production information of a transmitter that are used for the sensor transmitter during an assembly process of the sensor transmitter are mapped to each other, and storing and managing the generated quality control information in a server, so as to monitor a distribution channel or a sales channel of the sensor transmitter by using the quality control information, use for quality control of the sensor transmitter, or easily track a bad sensor transmitter.
Medical fluid injection apparatus and method with detachable patch and monitoring
Provided herein are systems and methods for monitoring one or more health or physiological parameters in a subject. The systems and methods may comprise a patch coupled to an injector. Data may be transmitted to a mobile device or remote server, where the data may be processed. Processed data may be used to inform a subject on a health or physiological condition.
Device and method for sensing signals from a body
A kit for transmitting and sensing signals comprises: a multi-connection cable having a plurality of cable connectors at a distal end of the cable for establishing electrical communication between each of the cable connectors and a system for measuring bioimpedance that is connectable to a proximal end of the cable, and a plurality of devices for transmitting and sensing signals. Each device comprises a non-conductive substrate adherable to a skin of a subject, a first and a second electrical contacts printed on the substrate, and a disposable connector. Each disposable connector is connectable to a compatible cable connector of the cable in a manner that a combined thickness of the disposable connector and the compatible cable connector, once connected, is less than 4 mm.
System and method for ingestible drug delivery
In one embodiment of the present disclosure, an ingestible medication device is a self-contained electronic device that stores an active agent, and that controls release of the active agent using an on board processor. The ingestible medication device embodies one or more ingestible device identifiers, including personal identifiers and active agent identifiers, which are compared with external device identifiers to determine whether to release the active agent. A method for managing an ingestible medication device detects proximity to a limited range, RFID-enabled patient wristband, indicating that the wristband is worn by the patient that ingested the ingestible medication device. Various methods enable a nurse to track medication information to monitor compliance with medication regimen and dosage information. Other methods track an ingestible medication device selected for filling a prescription at a pharmacy of the health care provider, including transfer to a caregiver station using a transport cart.
Systems and methods for monitoring a patient
A system for monitoring a patient includes an inflatable cuff configured to at least partially occlude an artery of the patient, and a sensor configured to determine a first parameter associated with the at least partially occluded artery and to generate an output signal indicative of the first parameter. The system also includes a processor configured to receive the output signal and information indicative of an occlusion efficiency of the cuff. The processor is configured to determine a hemodynamic parameter of the patient based on the output signal and the information.
MEDICAL DEVICE SYSTEM FOR REMOTE MONITORING AND INSPECTION
A medical system includes a medical device with processing circuitry configured to receive sensor data and send the sensor data to a diagnostic system. The sensor data includes sound data associated with blood flow and vibration data associated with blood flow. The diagnostic system includes a computing system configured to receive the sensor data and output devices. The output devices include a speaker configured to output a sound based on the sound data and a haptic device configured to provide a haptic feedback based on the vibration data.
Assessing sepsis risk based on dwell times of invasive devices
Various methods, systems, and devices relate to identifying a sepsis risk of an individual based on a dwell time of an invasive device in the individual. An example method includes receiving, from multiple transceivers, location data indicating first signals transmitted between the multiple transceivers and a tag attached to the invasive device. A location of the invasive device can be identified based on the location data. The dwell time can be determined based on the location. In certain examples, a second signal indicating the sepsis risk can be generated.
METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR SENSING PARAMETERS IN IMPLANTABLE DEVICES
Medical implants including sensors are described. The implant may have a flexible shell with a base, wherein the plurality of sensors may be incorporated onto and/or into the shell. The plurality of sensors may be distributed at different locations of the shell. Each sensor of the plurality of sensors may be configured to measure one or more parameters such as, e.g., temperature and/or pressure, and may comprise an electromagnetic coil useful for wireless transmission of data. Each sensor may be configured to transmit data at a frequency different from the frequency of one or more of the other sensors, may be configured to transmit data at a time different from a time data is transmitted by one or more of the other sensors, and/or may include a device identifier different from the device identifier of one or more of the other sensors.
Apparatus, system and method for detecting and monitoring inhalations
Described herein are an interactive apparatus and methods for sensing and measuring real-time characteristic patterns of a subject's use of a dry powder inhalation system. The inhaler device can be used in a wireless communication mode to communicate with a display to assess the subject's usage of the inhalation system concurrently as the inhalation is performed and thus the subject's inhalation can be evaluated as well as the performance of the inhalation system. The system can also detect the identity of the medicament, its dosage, lot, expiration, etc. and the characteristics profile of a dry powder formulation emitted from the inhalation system in use.
Information Monitoring Device, Information Management System, Immigration Inspection Method, Admission Management Method, and Computer-Readable Recording Medium Storing Information Management Program
An information monitoring device for monitoring information includes a temperature sensor that detects a body temperature from a person, a detection controller that performs control on the temperature sensor so that the temperature sensor repeats detection of the body temperature, a holding member that attaches the temperature sensor to the person to hold the temperature sensor, and an optical sensor that detects removal of the temperature sensor from the person.
