  • Patent number: 10499853
    Abstract: A method involves supporting both a sensor which measures biological information and an insertion needle at a location proximally spaced from the distal end portion of a device body. The sensor includes a detector which detects a body fluid component of the patient used to measure the biological information, and a signal processor which is attached to the device body and which processes a signal including the biological information. The method also involves moving the sensor and the insertion needle in the distal direction so that the detector and a portion of the insertion needle protrude distally beyond the distal end portion of the device body, separating the insertion needle from the sensor by moving the insertion needle relative to the sensor toward a proximal direction, and electrically connecting the sensor and the signal processor by operation of the device body after the insertion needle is separated from the sensor.

  • Patent number: 9662071
    Abstract: The sensor inserting device includes a device body, a movement mechanism which inserts a detector and an insertion needle into a body of a patient by moving a sensor with the insertion needle, and a dwelling member which is arranged on a moving path of the sensor and attached to the sensor by movement of the sensor caused by the movement mechanism. The dwelling member is allowed to dwell on the skin of the patient with the sensor and the transmitter connected at a location in which the detector is inserted into the body of the patient.

  • Patent number: 9451912
    Abstract: A sensor inserting device includes a device main body and a push handle for moving a detector of a sensor and an insertion needle, with the sensor held coupled to the insertion needle, into the body of a patient. A transmitter, for processing a signal from the sensor, is set in the device main body. A cable, allowing transmission of a signal between the sensor and the transmitter, is connected to the sensor (12) and the transmitter.
