摘要:
A medical hand-held device is disclosed comprising a test tape unit that can be inserted into a device housing which comprises a test tape provided with a plurality of analytical test elements which can be wound by means of a spool, and a tape drive comprising an electric motor and a gear unit that can be coupled to the test tape unit for winding the test tape forwards in sections, such that the test elements can successively be provided for sample application. The axis of rotation of the electric motor is arranged in a plane extending transversely to the axis of rotation of the spool and that the gear unit has an angle drive to change the direction of the axis.

The invention proposes a medical system which comprises a central control unit which is set up to display at least one diagnostic measured value using a display element. The medical system also comprises at least one invasive unit, wherein the invasive unit has at least one invasive consumable. The invasive consumable is set up to invasively intervene in a tissue of a patient. The invasive unit has at least one contactlessly readable electronic identifier for storing at least one piece of information. The central control unit is set up to electronically read the at least one piece of information in the electronic identifier. The central control unit and the invasive unit are functionally independent of one another such that the respective function of the central control unit and of the invasive unit can be performed independently of the presence of the respective other unit.
摘要:
A system is provided for measuring an analyte concentration in a body fluid sample, comprising at least one cartridge that contains consumables for multiple measurements, a data carrier which is affixed to the cartridge and contains calibration information for the consumables contained in the cartridge, a hand-held device that comprises a cartridge reception compartment including a reading facility for receiving a cartridge of this type and for reading its data carrier, a measuring facility for measuring the result of a detection reaction, a processor that is connected to the measuring facility and the reading facility for controlling the measuring facility and for analysis of a measuring signal. As an additional system component, at least one replaceable data storage unit is further provided in which supplementary data is stored. The data storage unit functions in combination with calibration information from the data carrier, wherein the hand-held device comprises an interface for transmission of supplementary data from the replaceable data storage unit to the device, and a consumables identification is stored on the data carrier and used by the processor after insertion of a cartridge to determine whether the consumables of the inserted cartridge, combined with the supplementary data that is available to the processor, renders a reliable measurement of an analyte concentration of a body fluid sample feasible.
摘要:
A dye-laser includes a resonator formed between two mirrors. The resonator has a longitudinal Z-axis and transverse X- and Y-axes perpendicular to each other and perpendicular to the Z-axis. A beam of laser radiation circulates in the laser resonator generally in a path along the Z-axis. An optical arrangement is provided for expanding the circulating beam in the Y-axis in one circulation direction and correspondingly compressing the expanded beam in the opposite circulation direction. A diffraction grating having rulings parallel to an X-Z plane of the resonator is located in the resonator in the path of the Y-axis expanded beam. The resonator and the diffraction grating are configured and arranged such that the Y-axis expanded beam is incident on the diffraction grating at a compound angle, is diffracted by the diffraction grating onto one of the resonator mirrors, and is reflected by that mirror back onto the grating such that the circulating laser radiation is incident on the diffraction grating twice per round trip in the resonator.

摘要:
A structured testing method for diagnostic or therapy support of a patient with a chronic disease and devices thereof are disclosed which implement a structured collection procedure based on a medical use case and/or question which provides at least one or more parameters defining entry criterion, a schedule of events, adherence criterion, and exit criterion. The entry criterion establish conditions needed to be met prior to obtaining biomarker data from the patient. Each event can include one or more of a performance time, patient guidance to perform the event, a request for information from the patient a request for patient action, and a request for collection of biomarker data from the patient. The adherence criterion can be used to assess whether an event performed is acceptable to addressing the medical use case and/or question, and the exit criterion establishes conditions needed to be met prior to exiting the collection procedure.
