Abstract: A system and method to provide guidance for diabetes therapy includes determining glycemic risks based on an analysis of glucose data. The analysis includes visualization of a glucose median, the variability of glucose in a patient, and the risk of hypoglycemia. An Advanced Daily Patterns report includes a visualization of an ambulatory glucose profile and a glucose control measure. The glucose control measure provides a highly visible and understandable display of the glucose condition of a patient visually expressed in the categories of low glucose, median glucose, and glucose variability.

Abstract: An elongated, marked protective sheath is disclosed which is closed along each side and open at each end and which has an elongated and flexible core material contained within the entire length of the elongated, marked protective sheath and extending from each open end. The elongated, marked protective sheath may be imprinted with anti-theft indicia indicating that elongated, marked protective sheath contains only fiber optic cable and does not contain copper. The core material extending from one end of the sheath may be tied to the front end of a fiber optic cable and then pulled into the sheath—thus pulling the fiber optic cable into the sheath. In this manner, the fiber optic cable will be almost completely contained within the elongated sheath which has the aforementioned markings thereon to alert individuals that the sheath only contains fiber optic cable and does not contain copper.

Abstract: Methods, devices, and systems may use a kinetic model to determine physiological parameters related to the kinetics of red blood cell glycation, elimination, and generation. Such physiological parameters can be used, for example, to determine a more reliable calculated HbA1c. In another example, a method may comprise: receiving a plurality of glucose levels over a time period; receiving a glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) level corresponding to an end of the time period; determining at least one physiological parameter selected from the group consisting of: a red blood cell glycation rate constant (kgly), a red blood cell generation rate constant (kgen), a red blood cell elimination constant (kage), and an apparent glycation constant (K), based on (1) the plurality of glucose levels and (2) the HbA1c level; and adjusting a glucose level target based on the at least one physiological parameter.

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: The invention apparatus for and a method of creating a localized warning to prevent damage to buried pipeline and other buried infrastructure using a new type of marker tape with the trade name signal tape® [hereinafter referred to as “Signal Tape”]. The disclosed Signal Tape may incorporate tracer wire and RFID technology to aid in the remote location of the Signal Tape and, thus, the buried infrastructure. Signal Tape may also incorporate Litz wire for use as tracer wire within the Signal Tape. The Signal Tape is designed to be buried just below the surface of the ground and directly over a buried infrastructure such as a pipeline. The Signal Tape incorporates a strong core material which permits the Signal Tape to be bodily removed from the soil when it is struck by excavation equipment.
