20080242962 | System for in-vitro measurement of an analyte concentration - The analyte concentration, such as glucose, in a human or animal body is measured with an implantable sensor that generates measurement signals. The measurement signals are compressed through statistical techniques to produced compressed measurement data that can is easier to process and communicate. A base station carries the implantable sensor along with a signal processor, memory, and a transmitter. A display device is also disclosed that can receive the compressed measurement data from the base station for further processing and display. | 10-02-2008 |
20100144042 | AUTOMATIC DIFFERENTIATION OF A SAMPLE SOLUTION AND A CONTROL SOLUTION - The invention concerns a method for automatically differentiating between a sample liquid and a control liquid especially within the context of analytical measuring systems, wherein the presence of a special property of the control liquid and/or at least two criteria are used for the differentiation. In addition the invention concerns appropriate control liquids that are suitable for the new method. | 06-10-2010 |
20120245438 | MEDICAL SYSTEM HAVING PLUG AND PLAY FUNCTION - A medical system is disclosed, which can be useable in particular for monitoring and/or controlling at least one bodily function of a user. The medical system comprises a control device and at least one medical user element embodied separately from the control device.
