Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve reliability of a system for in-vivo measurement of analyte concentration. SOLUTION: The system for in-vivo measurement of analyte concentration in a human or animal body having at least an implantable sensor 3 for generating measuring signals that are correlated to the analyte concentration to be measured, a base station 2 that can be coupled to the sensor 3 and contains an electronic analytical unit 47 for analysis of the measuring signals of the sensor 3 connected to it, and a transmitter 31 for wireless transmission of analytical results, and a display 4 that has a receiver for receiving the analytical results transmitted by the base station 2 and a display 29 for displaying analyte concentration values. The invention provides the sensor 3 to be a part of a replaceable sensor housing unit 10 that has a closed housing 12 inside of which the sensor 3 is disposed, and provides the sensor housing unit 10 to fit to the base station 2 in order to couple the sensor 3 to the base station 2.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a microdialytic system that assures prescribed highly reliable dialytic functions. SOLUTION: A microdialytic system that can be inserted in an in vivo tissue 10 is equipped with a microdialysis probe 12 having a dialysis membrane for separating a probe route 18 filled with a perfusate from the in vivo tissue, a sensor cell 14 for electric chemical measurement of elements contained in the perfusate, specifically glucose, to be transferred from the microdialysis probe 12 and a transport device 16 that transports the perfusate to the sensor cell 14 through the microdialysis probe 12, whereas the transport device 16 is provided with a delivery pump unit 30 connected with an entrance 20 of the probe route 18 on the delivery side, and a suck up pump unit 31 connected with an exit 24 of the probe route 18 on the sucking side that simultaneously operates with the delivery pump unit 30.
Abstract:
A system, tool, device method and program allows to characterize the relevance of errors of parameters affecting glucose concentration on a postprandial glucose concentration outcome for a person with diabetes mellitus. It describes in detail the effects of potential errors of parameters affecting glucose concentration on postprandial glucose concentration values within the clinically relevant glucose range.

Abstract:
A system is provided for collecting patient information from which diabetes therapy may be determined. The system may comprise a patient interface device, a patient notification device, an input device for entering patient information, and an information collecting unit. The information collecting unit may include a processor electrically coupled to a memory having stored therein at least one algorithm executable by the processor to activate the patient notification device followed by presenting instructions to the patient via the patient interface device for collecting specified information from the patient via the input device.
Abstract:
Dispositivo médico para el cuidado diabético, en particular un glucosímetro en sangre o un dispositivo de control continuo de la glucosa o una bomba de insulina, estando adaptado dicho dispositivo para dar al menos un resultado o un consejo en base a al menos un resultado de un análisis de una medida de la glucosa en sangre, teniendo la medida un porcentaje de error de medida, dándose el resultado o consejo en función del porcentaje de error de medida, y estando adaptado dicho dispositivo, en caso de una medida en un primer intervalo de medida o en varios primeros intervalos de medida, para mostrar resultados o consejos a pesar de que la medida tenga un porcentaje de error de medida, caracterizado porque, en caso de una medida en un segundo intervalo de medida o en varios segundos intervalos de medida, teniendo la medida el mismo porcentaje de error, dicho dispositivo está adaptado para inhibir la presentación de resultados o consejos.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a system for in-vivo measurement of an analyte concentration in a human or animal body having at least one implantable sens or (3) for generating measuring signals that are correlated to the analyte concentration to be measured, a base station (2) that can be coupled to the sensor (3) and contains an electronic analytical unit (47) for analysis of measuring signals of a sensor (3) connected to it, and a transmitter (31) for wireless transmission of analytical results, and a display device (4) that has a receiver for receiving the analytical results transmitted by the base station (2) and a display facility (29) for displayi ng analyte concentration values. The invention provides the sensor (3) to be part of a replaceable sensor carrier unit (10) that has a closed housing (12) inside o f which the sensor (3) is disposed, and provides the housing (12) of the sensor carrier unit (10) to catch onto the base station (2) in order to couple the sensor (3) to the base station (2).
Abstract:
Sistema médico que comprende: un aparato médico (1) para su empleo sobre y/o en el cuerpo de un usuario con una unidad de emisión y/o unidad de recepción (5) y un conmutador de activación (6), y un aparato de control externo (2) con una unidad de entrada de datos, a través de la que el usuario puede introducir señales de control, una unidad de activación (6', 6") para activar el conmutador de activación (6) del aparato médico (1) y una unidad de emisión y/o de recepción (5'), que puede intercambiar datos con la unidad de emisión y/o unidad de recepción (5) del aparato médico (1); en el que el conmutador de activación (6) está conectado con la unidad de emisión y/o unidad de recepción (5), para activar la unidad de emisión y/o unidad de recepción (5), cuando se recibió una señal de activación del aparato de control externo (2) por el conmutador de activación (6), caracterizado por que el conmutador de activación (6) está configurado de modo que se interrumpe de nuevo una conexión de comunicación producida después de la activación por el aparato de control externo (2) después de un periodo de tiempo predeterminado, que se necesita para transmitir datos o ejecutar una acción predeterminada.
