Adhesive and peripheral systems and methods for medical devices

摘要

A repeater system may control a pump by using a repeater and a user interface. An adhesive patch system may be used for affixing a pump or other object to a human body. Such an adhesive patch system may include two sets of adhesive members, each member including an adhesive material on at least one side so as to attach to the body. The members of the first set are spaced to allow the members of the second set to attach to the body in spaces provided between the members of the first set, and the members of the second set are spaced to allow members of the first set to detach from the body without detaching the members of the second set. Also, fill stations and base stations are provided for personal pump systems.

主权项

1. A system for controlling an external medical device, the system comprising:
an intermediate transceiver comprising:
short-range reception circuitry for, over a given range, receiving signals to a wearable medical device;short-range transmission circuitry for, over the given range, transmitting signals to the wearable medical device;longer-range transmission circuitry for, over a longer range exceeding the given range, transmitting the received signals to a user interface located remotely from the patient, longer-range reception circuitry for, over the longer range, receiving signals from the user interface; andan alarm for notifying a user of the presence of a fault condition; and a user interface comprising:interface reception circuitry for receiving signals from the intermediate transceiver; andinterface transmission circuitry for transmitting signals to the intermediate transceiver; wherein the user interface is configured to receive an alarm signal from the intermediate transceiver and to relay the alarm signal.
