摘要:
A device assembly for measuring and monitoring glucose content of blood, and a cover of such an assembly. The assembly is especially applicable for users with diabetes disease. The assembly includes a resilient cover on a measurement device. The cover has a slit at the input for a blood sample strip. The slit is closed at its rest position, but a test strip can be entered through the slit based on the resilience of the cover material. The resilient cover absorbs possible mechanical impacts and prevents impurities from reaching the sensor electronics.

A method for determining image information for an image of an object includes obtaining at least one image of an object of interest, automatically determining an image type and a presence or absence of a contrast agent, automatically generating a label that indicates the image type and the presence or absence of the contrast agent, and modifying the at least one image to include the label. A system and non-transitory computer readable medium are also described herein.

A header block is configured to be attachable to an implantable medical device. The header block includes a header block body and a connection port disposed in the header block body configured to receive an implantable lead. A conductor is disposed in the header block body electrically coupled to the connection port at a first end and connectable at a second end to the implantable medical device. An impeding device is electrically coupled in series along the length of the conductor and disposed within the header block body. The impeding device is configured to raise the high-frequency impedance of the conductor. The impeding device may include a bandstop filter or an L-C tank circuit.

With this device for measuring a biological sample, a partition wall (14) is provided between a display section (2) and a sensor mount (5) inside a main case (1). A control board housing chamber (15) is disposed on the display unit (2) side of the partition wall (14), and a measurement board housing chamber (16) is disposed on the sensor mount (5) side of the partition wall (14). A control board (6) is housed in the control board housing chamber (15), and a measurement hoard (7) and a temperature sensor (13) are housed in the measurement board housing chamber (16).

A hand-held test meter for use with an analytical test strip in the determination of an analyte (such as glucose) in a bodily fluid sample (for example, a whole blood sample) includes a housing, a test meter control circuit block, and an electromagnetic interference detection circuit block with an antenna configured to sense electromagnetic fields of a predetermined frequency. The electromagnetic interference detection circuit block is configured to generate a signal representative of an electromagnetic field sensed by the antenna and to provide that signal to the test meter control circuit block. In addition, the test meter control circuit block is configured to interrupt operation of the hand-held test meter when the signal received from the electromagnetic interference detection circuit block is represents an electromagnetic field that interferes with the hand-held test meter's operation.
摘要:
A measuring method and apparatus in which a measurable object (23) is irradiated with acoustic waves to measure a change in property value of charged particles in the object from electromagnetic waves induced thereby. A part (2) of the measurable object irradiated with an acoustic focused beam (1) is in a charge distribution state in which positive charged particles (3) are greater in number in the part (2) where electromagnetic waves induced by positive charged particles (3) are not canceled by those induced by negative charged particles (4) and where net electromagnetic waves (6) are induced. Since a change in concentration of positive charged particles (3) and/or negative charged particles (4) changes the intensity of electromagnetic waves (6), it is possible to know such a change in concentration of the charged particles from a change in intensity of electromagnetic waves (6).
摘要:
Transcutaneous safety electrode assemblies are described that can include a conducting electrode having a sharp end to penetration of the skin of a patient, and a shielding member that is deployable by a user so as to shield the sharp end of the electrode after the electrode is removed from the skin. The shielding member can be deployed by retracting the sharp end of the electrode a protective housing, assisted by spring force provided by the electrode wire so as to self-retract into the protective housing. The deployment and disengagement can be via push button action, and the electrode assembly can be self-retaining on the patient's skin while deployed.
摘要:
A portable apparatus for measuring a glucose level of a user having: a card-like member; a processor within the card-like member; at least one glucose sensor comprising a reagent, the glucose sensor generating a signal indicative of a measured glucose level upon application of a blood sample to the glucose sensor, wherein the glucose sensor is fixed to the card-like member and operably coupled to the processor; and at least one cover alterable between a first position in which the glucose sensor is covered and a second position in which the glucose sensor is exposed for use.
摘要:
A TANK filter is provided for a lead wire of an active medical device (AMD). The TANK filter includes a capacitor in parallel with an inductor. The parallel capacitor and inductor are placed in series with the lead wire of the AMD, wherein values of capacitance and inductance are selected such that the TANK filter is resonant at a selected frequency. The Q of the inductor may be relatively maximized and the Q of the capacitor may be relatively minimized to reduce the overall Q of the TANK filter to attenuate current flow through the lead wire along a range of selected frequencies. In a preferred form, the TANK filter is integrated into a TIP and/or RING electrode for an active implantable medical device.
