    Abstract: An alignment tool helps a patient position a chest-worn sensor device, such as a device for daily at-home monitoring of cardiopulmonary health conditions. The alignment tool includes a sensor connector that engages with the sensor device and a strap. The strap includes a first portion that has a protruding region sized to fit into the patient's suprasternal notch. The strap includes a second portion that engages with the sensor connector. The sensor connector and the first portion of the strap with the suprasternal notch protrusion are separated by a configurable length. A healthcare provider may set the length based on the distance between the patient's suprasternal notch and heart.

    Abstract: A method of verifying proper functionalization of a sensor and a negative test result obtained by exposing a sensing element functionalized to detect a target analyte to a test sample is described. The method may include, subsequent to or simultaneously with the exposing the sensing element to the test sample, exposing the sensing element to a test confirmation sample, the test confirmation sample comprising at least one of the target analyte in an amount greater than a detection limit of the sensing element and a recombinant protein of the target analyte in an amount greater than a detection limit of the sensing element and performing a measurement using the sensing element to obtain a subsequent test result.
