Abstract: Embodiments described herein include an analyte monitoring system including an application executing on a mobile device and an analyte monitoring system server. The application is configured to detect that a communication channel between the application and the analyte monitoring system server is non-responsive and taking actions in response or recommending options to correct the non-responsive communication channel. Techniques include receiving a notification from the analyte monitoring system server via a notification service server. In response to receiving the notification, output of a first connectivity alert is canceled. Also in response to receiving the notification, output of a second connectivity alert is scheduled to be output at expiration of a timer unless the mobile device receives a second notification from the analyte monitoring system server.

Abstract: Method and system for providing diabetes management and insulin therapy based on substantially real time glucose monitoring system is provided.
Abstract: A system and method provides a glucose report for determining glycemic risk based on an ambulatory glucose profile of glucose data over a time period, a glucose control assessment based on median and variability of glucose, and indicators of high glucose variability. Time of day periods are shown at which glucose levels can be seen. A median glucose goal and a low glucose line provide coupled with glucose variability provide a view into effects that raising or lowering the median goal would have. Likelihood of low glucose, median glucose compared to goal, and variability of glucose below median provide probabilities based on glucose data. Patterns can be seen and provide guidance for treatment.

Abstract: Systems, devices and methods for the management of glucose levels in the body of patient featuring user interface input mechanisms configured to provide haptic feedback to the user are provided.
Abstract: Methods, devices, systems, and kits are provided that buffer the time spaced glucose signals in a memory, and when a request for real time glucose level information is detected, transmit the buffered glucose signals and real time monitored glucose level information to a remotely located device, process a subset of the received glucose signals to identify a predetermined number of consecutive glucose data points indicating an adverse condition such as an impending hypoglycemic condition, confirm the adverse condition based on comparison of the predetermined number of consecutive glucose data points to a stored glucose data profile associated with the adverse condition, where confirming the adverse condition includes generating a notification signal when the impending hypoglycemic condition is confirmed, and activate a radio frequency (RF) communication module to wirelessly transmit the generated notification signal to the remotely located device only when the notification signal is generated.
Abstract: Systems, devices and methods are provided for the integration of an analyte data reader and a medication delivery device. The integrated device can include a medication delivery portion, wireless communications circuitry configured to receive data indicative of an analyte level, and electronics. The integrated device can also include one or more near-field communication (NFC) antennas. Example embodiments of adverse condition protection features of the integrated device are also provided.

Abstract: Medical devices configured for in vivo assays of one or more analytes can sometimes be problematic if left inserted in a tissue, such as skin, for an extended time. Certain medical device surface profiles may aid in alleviating this issue. Accordingly, medical devices may comprise a base surface having a tissue-facing surface profile defined thereon, and a sensor extending through the base surface and at least a portion of the tissue-facing surface profile. The tissue-facing surface profile deviates from the base surface, and the tissue-facing surface profile is also configured to undergo a change in shape, hardness, or a combination thereof after contacting a tissue for a length of time. A dynamic material may be present in at least a portion of the tissue-facing surface profile.

Abstract: A transcutaneous sensor configured to measure one or more physiological conditions of a patient. The transcutaneous sensor includes a substrate and first and second working electrodes on the substrate. The first working electrode includes a first active sensing area and the second working electrode includes a second active sensing area. The first active sensing area of the first working electrode is longitudinally offset along the substrate from the second active sensing area of the second working electrode.
Abstract: A continuous analyte sensor system for monitoring a level of an analyte in a bodily fluid of a user. The system comprises a sensor electronics system and an analyte sensor. The sensor electronics system comprises a transceiver for transmitting outgoing signals including the data relating to the analyte level and for receiving incoming signals. The transceiver comprises an electromagnetic signal generating component having first and second signal feed points. The sensor electronics system operates in a first and/or second communication mode. In the first communication mode, the sensor electronics system supplies first outgoing signals to the first signal feed point. In the second communication mode, the sensor electronics system supplies second outgoing signals to the second signal feed point.

Abstract: An analyte monitor includes a sensor, a sensor control unit, and a display unit. The sensor has, for example, a substrate, a recessed channel formed in the substrate, and conductive material disposed in the recessed channel to form a working electrode. The sensor control unit typically has a housing adapted for placement on skin and is adapted to receive a portion of an electrochemical sensor. The sensor control unit also includes two or more conductive contacts disposed on the housing and configured for coupling to two or more contact pads on the sensor. A transmitter is disposed in the housing and coupled to the plurality of conductive contacts for transmitting data obtained using the sensor. The display unit has a receiver for receiving data transmitted by the transmitter of the sensor control unit and a display coupled to the receiver for displaying an indication of a level of an analyte.
