Abstract: The invention relates to a support (1) comprising a U-shaped enveloping body (1) having an elastic structure formed by a front limb (1a), a rear limb (1b) and a concave bottom (1c), where the U-shaped enveloping body (1) defines an inner space (9) where the external device (3) of the catheter fits tightly. The support (1) also has at least one extension (4) which projects from one of the limbs of the U-shaped enveloping body (1), where said limb and the extension (4) face each other, forming a clip device (5) for attaching the support to the patient's garment, the clip device (5) being formed outside the inner space (9) of the U-shaped enveloping body (1).

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for detecting compounds in a sample using a tandem mass spectrometer. A sample comprising a plurality of detectable compounds that have been separated in time over a time interval is introduced into a tandem mass spectrometer. A sample product ion spectra is obtained. The presence of one or more known compounds of interest in the sample product ion spectra is determined. A compound is identified as present in the sample if the score associated with said compound meets a threshold value set as indicative of the likely presence of the compound in the sample.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for quantitating detectable compounds of a sample. Sample product ion spectra are received for each mass selection window for each time step. The received sample product ion spectra are searched for the presence of known compounds of interest with known product ion spectra by retrieving the known product ion spectra from a library, retrieving the sample product ion spectra corresponding to the precursor mass selection window expected to contain a precursor ion corresponding to the known product ion spectra, generating product ion traces in time for the sample product ion spectra for the known product ion spectra, calculating a score for the product ion traces and product ion spectra that represents how well known product ions and sample product ions match, and calculating a quantitative value for the known compound from the product ion traces when the score exceeds a threshold value.
