Abstract: A buttress is applied to an end effector of a surgical stapler. The buttress is loaded on a platform of a buttress applier cartridge. The end effector is closed upon the platform.

Abstract: A continuous analyte monitoring system includes analyte sensors configured to sense analytes such as lactate and glucose in the tissue of a user. A controller is coupled to the analyte sensors and configured evaluate first samples of outputs of a first analyte sensor and second samples of outputs of a second analyte sensor to determine whether the first samples and the second samples indicate compression of the tissue. The controller compensates for the compression of the tissue with respect to the first samples. A force sensor may be used and may be positioned between a circuit board and a housing, the circuit board supported by supports providing preloading of the force sensor. A force deflector may be used to direct loads away from tissue holding the analyte sensors. A housing may have a flexible lower surface to reduce loading of the tissue.
