    摘要: Systems and methods for processing sensor data and self-calibration are provided. In some embodiments, systems and methods are provided which are capable of calibrating a continuous analyte sensor based on an initial sensitivity, and then continuously performing self-calibration without using, or with reduced use of, reference measurements. In certain embodiments, a sensitivity of the analyte sensor is determined by applying an estimative algorithm that is a function of certain parameters. Also described herein are systems and methods for determining a property of an analyte sensor using a stimulus signal. The sensor property can be used to compensate sensor data for sensitivity drift, or determine another property associated with the sensor, such as temperature, sensor membrane damage, moisture ingress in sensor electronics, and scaling factors.

    摘要: Systems and methods of detecting occlusions and fluid-loss conditions (e.g., disconnects and/or leakages) in an infusion pump are discussed. For example, electrokinetic infusion pumps may develop an occlusion in the fluid flow path, which can disrupt control of fluid dispersed from the pump. As well, an infusion set disconnect can also result in a fluid-loss that can be disruptive. Such disruptions can be troublesome to systems that control the infusion pump, such as closed loop controllers. Accordingly, systems and methods described herein can be used to detect such occlusions and fluid-loss conditions during infusion pump operation. For example, a position sensor can be used to monitor fluid flow from the infusion pump, with the measurement being compared with an expected value to detect an occlusion or fluid-loss condition. Other algorithms for utilizing the position sensor are also described.

    摘要: A transcutaneous sensor device configured for continuously measuring analyte concentrations in a host is provided. In some embodiments, the transcutaneous sensor device 100 comprises an in vivo portion 160 configured for insertion under the skin 180 of the host and an ex vivo portion 170 configured to remain above the surface of the skin 180 of the host after sensor insertion of the in vivo portion. The in vivo portion may comprise a tissue piercing element 110 configured for piercing the skin 180 of the host and a sensor body 120 comprising a material or support member 130 that provides sufficient column strength to allow the sensor body to be pushable in a host tissue without substantial buckling. The ex vivo portion 170 may be configured to comprise (or operably connect to) a sensor electronics unit and may comprise a mounting unit 150. Also described here are various configurations of the sensor body and the tissue piercing element that may be used to protect the membrane of the sensor body.

    摘要: A cap for use with a dermal tissue lancing device (that includes a housing and a lancet movable with respect to the housing) includes a proximal end for engaging with the housing, a distal end for engaging with dermal tissue and an opening for a portion of the lancet to pass through. The distal end of the cap includes portions for engaging dermal tissue. These portions are resiliently deformable such that, when the cap contacts and is urged towards dermal tissue, the portions deform resiliently, engaging the dermal tissue and approaching theretogether. A process for the collection of a fluid sample (e.g., blood) from dermal tissue includes providing a dermal tissue lancing device with a housing, a cap and a lancet that is moveable with respect to the housing and the cap. The cap includes a proximal end for engaging with the housing, a distal end for engaging with dermal tissue, and an opening for a portion of the lancet to pass through. The distal end of the cap includes resiliently deformable portions for engaging dermal tissue. Next, the cap is contacted with the dermal tissue (e.g., dermal tissue of a fingertip, limb, or abdomen) such that the portions engage the dermal tissue. Subsequently, the cap is urged towards the dermal tissue such that at least first and second portions deform resiliently and approach theretogether to create a bulge in the dermal tissue. The bulge is then lanced to create a puncture from which a fluid sample is collected.
