Filed:

Oct 30, 2007

Appl. No.:

11/928560

Inventors:

Sharbel E. Noujaim - Menlo Park CA, US
David Horwitz - Los Altos CA, US
Manoj Sharma - Milpitas CA, US
Joseph Marhoul - San Jose CA, US

Assignee:

LifeScan, Inc. - Milpitas CA

International Classification:

A61B 51/14532
A61B 51/14503

US Classification:

600365, 600373

Abstract:

The present invention is directed to a method of reducing false readings in a hypoglycemic detector that includes establishing a predetermined hypoglycemic threshold, a predetermined critical threshold, a predetermined rate of change in glucose concentration where the predetermined critical threshold is below the predetermined hypoglycemic threshold. A first sampling rate is then calculated based upon said predetermined hypoglycemic threshold, said predetermined critical threshold, and said predetermined rate of change in glucose concentration.

A61B 5/00

US Classification:

600347000, 600365000, 604046000

Abstract:

A medical detecting device including at least one miniature probe/lance (hereinafter microprotrusion) containing an integrated sensor which is covered with a protective coating to shield the sensor from fouling and other interactions with a host prior to its desired use is provided. In accordance with the present invention, the protective coating is selectively removed from the sensor prior to using the same. The present invention also provides a method for detecting a selected agent using the medical detecting device of the present invention.

Appl. No.:

12/603204

Inventors:

Mahyar Z. Kermani - Pleasanton CA, US
Sharbel Noujaim - Menlo Park CA, US
Thomas Jetter - Mainz DE, US

International Classification:

A61B 5/1455
A61B 5/1468

US Classification:

600310, 600347

Abstract:

Provided are systems and methods that permit the direct assessment of temperature on an electrochemical test strip, including at the reaction site of the strip, through the inclusion of an infrared sensor within the biosensing instrument. Analyte measurement systems are provided in which an infrared sensor is used to assess temperature associated with a test strip, and the acquired temperature data is used to modulate data regarding an analyte in a biological sample, thereby providing a more accurate measurement of the analyte.
