Publication number: 20160345830Abstract: A computing device receives analyte data produced by an analyte monitoring sensor over a communications link from at least one first device. Health data, comprising at least part of the analyte data, may be communicated over a communications link to at least one second device in response to a request. The first device may be positioned over the analyte monitoring sensor using signal strength and location information. External analyte data may be employed to calibrate the analyte monitoring sensor.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 27, 2016Publication date: December 1, 2016Applicant: Senseonics, IncorporatedInventors: Barkha Raisoni, Todd Whitehurst, Christina Long, Steven Walters, Andrew Dehennis

Publication number: 20060282042Abstract: The present invention provides an insertion device and method for implanting a biosensor into a patient subject. In one embodiment, a biosensor is stored in the instrument's hydration chamber which enables the biosensor to maintain proper hydration and sterilization prior to insertion. The instrument further includes a plunger that travels along a channel within the support device. After the biosensor is placed into the channel, the user pushes the plunger causing the biosensor to move through the channel and a hollow tube and into the patient subject. The present invention also provides for packaging and storing a biosensor and insertion device so that the biosensor is hydrated and sterile prior to insertion.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 7, 2006Publication date: December 14, 2006Applicant: Sensors for Medicine and Science, Inc.Inventors: Steven Walters, Casey O'Connor

Publication number: 20050237518Abstract: An optical sensor device for determining the presence or concentration of an analyte, contains a waveguide disposed over a light source and a light detector mounted on a surface of a substrate and separated by an internal baffle, wherein the waveguide has a thickness corresponding to a far field emission point of the light source as determined by a light shielding baffle between the light source and light detector. An analyte indicator matrix is disposed on the outer surface of the waveguide. The sensor device geometry takes advantage of only direct illumination of the indicator matrix, and direct collection of indicator matrix illumination, without any significant reflection by said waveguide. Undesirable light noise generated by the light source passes directly out of the device through the waveguide.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 24, 2005Publication date: October 27, 2005Applicant: Sensors for Medicine and Science, Inc.Inventors: Arthur Colvin, Steven Walters
