Patent number: 8680974Abstract: An electronic device may communicate wirelessly with another electronic device. The electronic device may include a first processor configured to control only wireless communications with the another device but not operations associated only with the electronic device, a second processor configured to control the operations associated only with the electronic device but not the wireless communications with the another device, and a memory device connected between the first and second processors. The first and second processors may each be configured to exchange information with the memory device separately and independently of the exchange of information by the other of the first and second processors with the memory device.Type: GrantFiled: December 23, 2009Date of Patent: March 25, 2014Assignees: Roche Diagnostics Operations, Inc., Roche Diagnostics International Ltd.Inventors: Ulf Meiertoberens, Raymond Strickland, Harvey Buck, Jr., Michael J.

Patent number: 8618948Abstract: An automatically operating injection device with an occlusion alarm unit and a method for determining an injection occlusion are disclosed. The method includes generating a plurality of evaluation forces based on a series of force measurements and based on an evaluation time period; determining whether an occlusion exists based on either an evaluation of the plurality of evaluation forces or whether one or more of the series of force measurements exceeds a force threshold; and providing an injection occlusion alarm if an occlusion is determined to exist.Type: GrantFiled: April 21, 2010Date of Patent: December 31, 2013Assignee: Roche Diagnostics International AGInventors: Markus Oberli, Florian Kuehni, Martin Bruegger, Gilles Prod'hom

Patent number: 8533475Abstract: A method for authenticating a medical device and a remote electronic device may include generating a PIN code by one device, capturing the generated PIN code with the other device, checking authentication of the PIN code, which is based at least in part on the captured PIN code, by the one device, generating a strong key by the one device, sending the strong key encrypted to the other device, checking authentication of the sent strong key by the one device, and upon successful authentication, storing the strong key in a memory of the one device and the other device. The roles of the medical device and the remote electronic device may be reversed in the authenticating method. The authenticating method may be preceded by a pairing process and/or followed by a binding process.Type: GrantFiled: December 7, 2009Date of Patent: September 10, 2013Assignees: Roche Diagnostics Operations, Inc., Roche Diagnostics International AGInventors: Marcel Frikart, Markus Oberli, Philippe Frikart, Raymond Strickland, Markus Jungen, Matthias Ehrsam, Christian Frey, Felix Lindner

Patent number: 8477026Abstract: A system for transmission of medical data comprises a first device which is designed to be worn on the body of a patient and which generates medically relevant data when in operation, said data being transmitted wirelessly to a second device. The first device comprises a communication unit for the wireless communication with the second device, a circuit which generates medically relevant data when in operation and a handover memory for the intermediate storage of data that are to be transferred from the circuit to the communication unit or from the communication unit to the circuit. The data generating circuit is connected to the handover memory via a first data line and the communication unit is connected to the handover memory via a second data line.Type: GrantFiled: September 9, 2009Date of Patent: July 2, 2013Assignees: Roche Diagnostics Operations, Inc., Roche Diagnostics International AGInventors: Martin Bruegger, Bernd Roesicke, Markus Oberli, Stefan Lindegger

Publication number: 20100160759Abstract: An electronic device may selectively disable a bolus advice process according to which the electronic device recommends delivery of a bolus amount of a drug to a body of a user based on a plurality of factors including glucose concentration of the user. The electronic device may include a glucose measuring facility configured to measure glucose concentration of a body fluid sample, and a processor including a memory having instructions stored therein that comprise the bolus advice process. The memory may further have instructions stored therein that are executable by the processor to request a glucose concentration measurement by the glucose measurement facility prior to executing, or as part of, the bolus advice process, and to disable execution of the bolus advice process if a glucose concentration value resulting from the requested glucose concentration measurement is less than a threshold value.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 23, 2009Publication date: June 24, 2010Inventors: Michael J.
