Abstract: An infusion device configured to implant a cannula and a sensor in a user. The infusion device includes a first unit defining a first housing and a second unit defining a second housing. The second housing is configured to engage the first housing. The infusion device includes a first insertion needle configured to implant the cannula in the user and a second insertion needle configured to implant the sensor in the user when the second unit engages the first unit. The infusion device includes processing circuitry in electrical communication with the sensor and a fluid reservoir in fluid communication with the cannula. In examples, the first unit and the second unit are configured to engage using an inserter.

Abstract: A medical device includes a base having a first surface to be secured to a patient's skin. A first insertable member has a length portion extending from the first surface of the base for insertion. A second insertable member has a length portion extending from the first surface of the base for insertion through the patient's skin. The first insertable member includes a sensor member for sensing a biological condition, and the second insertable member includes an infusion cannula for infusing an infusion media. The distal end of the first insertable member and the distal end of the second insertable member are spaced apart by a first distance of at least 5.0 mm, for reducing interference of the infusion media from the infusion cannula with an operation of the sensor member.

Abstract: A method for compensating for a life-lengthening agent for a glucose sensor includes accessing first and second electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) values of at least one parameter based on first and second EIS procedures performed on EIS signals from a working electrode of the glucose sensor, calculating a change in the at least one parameter between the first and second EIS values, estimating a concentration of the agent based on the change in the at least one parameter, and calculating a model effect in response to the concentration. In a case where the model effect is not greater than the threshold, the method further includes adjusting a sensor glucose value based on the concentration and sensor signals from the working electrode, and displaying the adjusted sensor glucose value.

Abstract: A system for a physiological characteristic sensor deployed with a sensor inserter includes an adhesive skin patch coupled to the physiological characteristic sensor. The adhesive patch is to couple the physiological characteristic sensor to an anatomy. The system also includes a gravity resistance system coupled to the adhesive patch and to be coupled to the sensor inserter. The gravity resistance system maintains the adhesive patch substantially perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the sensor inserter prior to deployment of the physiological characteristic sensor and is removable from the adhesive patch by the sensor inserter upon deployment of the physiological characteristic sensor.

Abstract: A device for determining a glucose level of a patient includes a set of electrodes comprising a first working electrode, a second working electrode, a counter electrode, and a reference electrode. The reference electrode is electrically coupled to the counter electrode. The device further includes a memory and one or more processors implemented in circuitry and in communication with the memory. The one or more processors configured to determine a sensor signal based on current flowing between the first working electrode and the counter electrode and determine an open circuit potential (OCP) signal based on a voltage across the second working electrode and the reference electrode. The one or more processors are further configured to determine the glucose level of the patient based on the sensor signal and the OCP signal and output an indication of the glucose level.

Abstract: The disclosed system includes a user-mountable electronic device, an output interface, and at least one processor. The electronic device includes a housing and at least one sensor device located within the housing and configured to generate sensor output that indicates orientation or motion of the user-mountable electronic device. The at least one processor is operated to: receive the sensor output; identify, based on the received sensor output, a body part on which the user intends to deploy the user-mountable electronic device; determine a preferred orientation of the user-mountable electronic device relative to the identified body part; and cause the output interface to provide deployment guidance that indicates the preferred orientation of the user-mountable electronic device.

Abstract: An apparatus adherable to a user's skin, such as a wearable medical device, is presented here. An embodiment of the apparatus includes a durable component having a periphery defining a footprint of the durable component, and a skin adhesive component coupled to the durable component to facilitate securing the durable component to the user's skin. The skin adhesive component includes a first region and a second region removably attached to the first region. The first region of the skin adhesive component resides completely within the footprint of the durable component. After removal of the second region of the skin adhesive component, the first region remains intact and protected underlying the durable component.

Abstract: In some embodiments, an apparatus may comprise a first insertion needle and a second insertion needle. The first insertion needle may be configured to carry a first medical device (e.g., a sensor) through an opening in an apparatus housing. The second insertion needle may be configured to carry a second medical device (e.g., a cannula) along a curved path that passes through the opening in the apparatus housing such that a distal end of the first medical device becomes increasingly displaced from the distal end of the second medical device as the distal end of the second medical device is carried along the curved path.
