    摘要: A medical device for detecting at least one analyte in a body fluid is disclosed. The medical device comprises:



    at least one analyte sensor having an insertable portion adapted for at least partially being inserted into a body tissue of a user,
    at least one insertion cannula, wherein the analyte sensor at least partially is placed inside the insertion cannula;
    at least one housing, wherein the housing comprises at least one sensor compartment, wherein the sensor compartment forms a sealed compartment receiving at least the insertable portion of the analyte sensor, wherein the sealed compartment comprises at least one detachable upper cap and at least one detachable lower cap, wherein the detachable lower cap is configured for detachment before insertion, thereby opening the insertable portion for insertion, wherein the insertion cannula is attached to the detachable upper cap, wherein the detachable upper cap is configured for detachment after insertion, thereby removing the insertion cannula; and
    at least one electronics unit, wherein the analyte sensor is operably connected to the electronics unit, wherein the electronics unit comprises at least one interconnect device with at least one electronic component attached thereto, wherein the interconnect device fully or partially surrounds the housing.

    摘要: An inventive medical system has a housing with a first guiding surface. A preassembled module is received in the housing. The module includes electronics electrically connected to an analytical sensor, an insertion component configured for inserting the analytical sensor into body tissue of a user and a sterility cap at least partially surrounding the insertion component. The module has a second guiding surface. A protective cap is removably connected to the housing and covers the preassembled module. The protective cap is removable from the housing by pulling the protective cap from the housing. The first guiding surface guides the protective cap during the pulling of the protective cap from the housing and the second guiding surface guides the sterility cap during pulling the sterility cap from the insertion component. The length of the first guiding surface exceeds the length of the second guiding surface.

    摘要: A medical device for detecting at least one analyte in a body fluid, a method for assembling the medical device and a method of using the medical device are disclosed. The medical device comprises:



    an analyte sensor having an insertable portion;
    an insertion cannula receiving the insertable portion of the analyte sensor;
    an electronics unit connected with the analyte sensor; and
    a housing comprising an electronics compartment receiving the electronics unit and—a sensor compartment receiving the analyte sensor,
    the sensor compartment forming a sealed compartment receiving the insertable portion of the analyte sensor,
    the sealed compartment comprising detachable upper and lower caps,
    the lower cap configured for detachment before insertion,
    the insertion cannula being attached to the upper cap, wherein detaching the upper cap after insertion removes the insertion cannula,
    wherein the electronics compartment at least partially surrounds the sensor compartment.
