    摘要: Methods, devices, and systems may use a kinetic model to determine physiological parameters related to the kinetics of red blood cell glycation, elimination, and generation. Such physiological parameters can be used, for example, to determine a more reliable calculated HbA1c. In another example, a method may comprise: receiving a plurality of glucose levels over a time period; receiving a glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) level corresponding to an end of the time period; determining at least one physiological parameter selected from the group consisting of: a red blood cell glycation rate constant (kgly), a red blood cell generation rate constant (kgen), a red blood cell elimination constant (kage), and an apparent glycation constant (K), based on (1) the plurality of glucose levels and (2) the HbA1c level; and adjusting a glucose level target based on the at least one physiological parameter.

    摘要: Embodiments described herein include a medical monitoring system with a cloud communication interface in which individual components of the medical monitoring system, including medical sensors and data receiving devices are configured to communicate with remote cloud servers of the medical monitoring system using cellular networks. The remote cloud servers process medical data reported by the medical sensors and deliver data to the data receiving devices. The components of the medical monitoring system are low-cost and durable. The sensors are considered disposable after the expiration of their active use lifetime. The data receiving device can be manufactured using low-cost durable components to be protected against loss caused by accidental damage, destruction, or misplacement. Embodiments described herein further provide for authentication and for secure communication among the components of the medical monitoring system.

    摘要: An analyte monitor includes a sensor, a sensor control unit, and a display unit. The sensor has, for example, a substrate, a recessed channel formed in the substrate, and conductive material disposed in the recessed channel to form a working electrode. The sensor control unit typically has a housing adapted for placement on skin and is adapted to receive a portion of an electrochemical sensor. The sensor control unit also includes two or more conductive contacts disposed on the housing and configured for coupling to two or more contact pads on the sensor. A transmitter is disposed in the housing and coupled to the plurality of conductive contacts for transmitting data obtained using the sensor. The display unit has a receiver for receiving data transmitted by the transmitter of the sensor control unit and a display coupled to the receiver for displaying an indication of a level of an analyte. The analyte monitor may also be part of a drug delivery system to alter the level of the analyte based on the data obtained using the sensor.
