Abstract: Applicators for applying an on-skin assembly to skin of a host and methods of their use and/or manufacture are provided. An applicator includes an insertion assembly configured to insert at least a portion of the on-skin assembly into the skin of the host, a housing configured to house the insertion assembly, the housing comprising an aperture through which the on-skin assembly can pass, an actuation member configured to, upon activation, cause the insertion assembly to insert at least the portion of the on-skin assembly into the skin of the host, and a sealing element configured to provide a sterile barrier and a vapor barrier between an internal environment of the housing and an external environment of the housing.

Abstract: A method and system providing assessment and treatment of musculoskeletal impairments for computers and smart phones is disclosed. A plurality of images and videos for grouping clinical patterns are utilized for which a user matches their symptoms. Once the user determines which grouped symptoms matches their own, they push a button and are directed to identification of a musculoskeletal condition. The user is then lead to treatment in the form of home exercises, rehabilitation tools, proper body mechanic training and postural adjustments. The assessments and treatments are cited with peer reviewed journals.

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.
