Publication number: 20210228944Abstract: A system for physical training of a body part comprises a tracker having a mounting structure configured to fasten the tracker at a particular body part of a user and a sensor unit configured to detect a movement of the body part. The system further comprises a model generation arrangement connectable to the tracker and configured to obtain first sensor data about a sequence of motion detected by the tracker and to generate an individual movement model based on the first sensor data. The system also comprises an analysis arrangement connectable to the tracker and configured to evaluate second sensor data about a current motion of the body part and to check compliance of the second sensor data with respect to the individual movement model.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 29, 2019Publication date: July 29, 2021Applicant: TYROMOTION GMBHInventors: Denise BAUMANN, Erik SCHKOMMODAU, Michael SCHWARZFISCHER, Christoph RICKERT, Samuel BAUER

Patent number: 10691308Abstract: A medical system comprising a display is presented. In response to the reception of triggering information, a subset of data is selected from a displayed or non-displayed dataset according to a data priority scheme and the displayed dataset is replaced by the display of the selected subset of data. The display of the selected subset of data uses a variety of rendering options. The triggering information is provided by the user or provided by one or more sensors. The data priority scheme is predefined or computed. It is static or dynamic. The data priority scheme can comprise a threshold which is applied for the selection or determination of the subset of data. Examples of priorities associated with data for diabetes care are provided. A range of displays can be used and combined.Type: GrantFiled: July 27, 2012Date of Patent: June 23, 2020Assignee: Roche Diabetes Care, Inc.Inventors: Nicole Bernini, Christoph Rickert, Andrea Schuetz Frikart, Reto Sigrist, Beat Spoerri

Patent number: 8505833Abstract: A medical liquid transfer system includes a pump configured to transfer liquid between at least two containers. A detachable connector is detachably secured to the pump. The detachable connector has at least one pump passage to transmit pumping pressure from the pump to at least one of the containers. The detachable connector can include one or more liquid impermeable and gas permeable membranes to ensure the liquid is retained in the detachable connector. After the fluid is transferred the detachable connector is removed and replaced by a new one in order to prevent contamination of the pump. An interlock mechanism is used to prevent premature removal of the detachable connector and/or the container being filled.Type: GrantFiled: March 26, 2012Date of Patent: August 13, 2013Assignees: Roche Diagnostics Operations, Inc., Roche Diagnostics International AGInventors: Jean-Noël Fehr, Heiner Kaufmann, Rudolf Zihlmann, Sandro Niederhäuser, Christopher Wiegel, Eric Misselwitz, Christoph Rickert
