    摘要: The present invention is directed to methods and apparatuses of medication management based upon active authorization of medication infusion by a clinician that can provide for effective management of an analyte in a patient's blood, reducing the opportunities for human error common with current manual systems while still placing final control of the medication management with the human clinician. For example, a semi-automated glucose management system can measure the glucose level in a patient's blood, recommend infusion parameters to a clinician who can authorize an infusion of glucose or insulin, and infuse the glucose or insulin into the patient.

    摘要: The use of an optical or other measurement in a blood access system enables the determination of a fluid sample appropriate for measurement on a real time basis. This information can be used to control the blood access system and related measurement processes. The determination can be based on, for example, at least one of: optical density, optical scatter, analyte level, temperature, the absolute level of any of the preceding, the stability of any of the preceding, the rate of change of any of the preceding, or the value of any of the preceding relative to another determination. The determination can be made using, for example, at least one of: electrochemical sensor, ion specific electrode, capacitance measurement, impedance measurement, inductance measurement, conductivity measurement, optical measurement, and ultrasound measurement. The present invention relates to determination of the quality of a biological sample in which determination of an analyte concentration is to be made, and various methods and apparatuses related thereto. An evaluation of sample quality can be made by monitoring the temporal changes in the sample properties or characteristics as the biological sample is procured or measured. The methods and apparatuses described herein can be used to evaluate the temporal characteristics of a sample during sample acquisition and/or during determination of the sample analyte or parameter of interest. The sample quality assurance methods and apparatuses described herein can thus be used to ensure that a valid sample has been procured by or presented to an instrument or measurement system for analyte determination, thereby preventing the measurement and reporting of analyte values for a sample that is unstable or otherwise non-representative of the biological system from which the sample was obtained.

    摘要: The present invention provides methods and apparatuses that can provide measurement of glucose with variable intervals between measurements, allowing more efficient measurement with greater patient safety. A method according to the present invention can comprise measuring the value of an analyte such as glucose at a first time; determining a second time from a patient condition, an environmental condition, or a combination thereof; then measuring the value of the analyte at the second time (where the second time can be expressed as an interval after the first time, an absolute time, or a time indicated when certain patient or environmental conditions, or both, are reached or detected). The second time can be determined, as an example, from a comparison of the analyte value at the first time with a threshold. The interval between the first time and the second time can be related to the difference between the analyte value at the first time and the threshold; e.g., the closer to the threshold, the closer the two measurement times. The invention can be used with automated measurement systems, allowing the system to determine measurement times and automatically make measurements at the determined times, reducing operator interaction and operator error.

    摘要: The present invention comprises methods and apparatuses that can provide accurate measurement of glucose or other analytes from a multilumen catheter in the presence of infusion of substances, including glucose. Examples of “multilumen catheters” include central venous catheters having multiple lumens, midline catheters having multiple lumens, multiple catheters configured or emplaced such that their lumens are in proximity to each other, and, in the case of indwelling analyte sensors, a catheter with a lumen for infusion and an indwelling sensor spaced apart from the infusion lumen. For blood withdrawal, anti-cross contamination controls can prevent the entrainment of blood which might be contaminated with feeding fluids or medications that are administered through other lumens within the catheter and in proximity of the blood sampling port. Cross contamination can occur under various situations, and is known to occur when the patient is connected to a ventilator. The ventilator cyclically raises the intra-thoracic pressure and diminishes blood flow rate in the central veins returning to the heart. The diminished flow can increase the chances for cross-contamination when additional lumens are introducing fluids during a draw sample.
