Problems solved by technology

Other prior art systems may utilize sharp insertion and retraction mechanisms that are susceptible to trauma to the tissue surrounding the sensor insertion site, which can lead to inaccurate analyte level measurements
These challenges, and others described herein, can lead to improper insertion of sensors and / or poor analyte measurement, and thus, failure to properly monitor analyte levels in patients

Embodiment approach

[0088] figure 1 is a conceptual diagram depicting an exemplary embodiment of an analyte monitoring system 100 comprising a sensor applicator 150 , a sensor control device 102 and a reader device 120 . Here, the sensor applicator 150 may be used to deliver the sensor control device 102 to a monitoring location on the user's skin where the sensor 104 is held in place by the adhesive patch 105 for a period of time. The sensor control device 102 is in Figure 2B and Figure 2C As further described in , and may communicate with the reader device 120 via the communication path 140 using wired or wireless techniques. Example wireless protocols include Bluetooth, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE, BTLE, Bluetooth Smart, etc.), Near Field Communication (NFC), and the like. A user may monitor applications installed in memory on the reader device 120 using the screen 122 and input 121 and may use the power port 123 to recharge the device battery. Although only one reader device 120 is shown,...

Abstract

Systems, devices and methods are provided for inserting at least a portion of an in vivo analyte sensor for sensing an analyte level in a bodily fluid of a subject. In particular, disclosed herein are various embodiments of applicators, and components thereof, designed to reduce trauma to tissue of a sensor insertion site and to increase the likelihood of a successful sensor insertion. Also disclosed are embodiments to ensure structural integrity of a sensor.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims priority to and benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application Serial No. 62 / 784,074, filed December 21, 2018, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety for all purposes. technical field [0003] The subject matter described herein relates generally to systems, devices, and methods for inserting at least a portion of an analyte sensor into a subject using an applicator. Background technique [0004] Detecting and / or monitoring analyte levels, such as glucose, ketones, lactate, oxygen, hemoglobin AIC, etc., are critical to the health of individuals with diabetes. Patients with diabetes develop complications including loss of consciousness, cardiovascular disease, retinopathy, neuropathy, and kidney disease. People with diabetes often need to monitor their glucose levels to ensure they are maintained within clinically safe ranges, and can also use this information to determine if ...
