Abstract: Systems and methods for wireless communication of analyte information are disclosed. Example embodiments include an analyte sensor system. The analyte sensor system may include an analyte sensor to gather information related to a level of an analyte in a host. The analyte sensor system may include circuitry to transmit and receive wireless signals using a first antenna. The analyte sensor may be coupled to the circuitry before the analyte sensor system is transitioned into an operational state. The analyte sensor system may include a second antenna to receive an input signal from a source external to the analyte sensor system and to transmit a modified signal. The circuitry may use the first antenna to receive the modified signal. The analyte sensor system may transition into the operational state in response to the modified signal received using the first antenna.

Abstract: An assembly for a drug delivery device, comprising a housing having a proximal end and a distal end, a piston rod and an indicator. The piston rod is adapted to be displaced distally with respect to the housing away from a proximal start position and towards a distal end position for delivering a drug. The indicator is adapted for indicating at least two different operation conditions of the assembly, the indicator being moveable with respect to the housing from a first indication position for a first condition of the assembly into a second indication position for a second condition of the assembly. The piston rod and the indicator are configured to mechanically interact for converting movement of the piston rod into movement of the indicator. A first detent is provided which is configured to releasably secure the indicator in the first indication position such that movement into the second indication position is allowed.
