A system for measuring health data includes a measurement device. The measurement device includes at least one measurement interface to receive a first fluid sample, a processor to measure one or more first characteristics of the first fluid sample, and at least one memory device to store first data. The processor reads the first data and measures the one or more first characteristics of the first fluid sample according to the first data. The at least one memory device also stores second data. The processor reads the second data instead of the first data to reconfigure the measurement device and measures one or more second characteristics of a second fluid sample according to the second data. An external processing device may be communicatively coupled to the measurement device and may execute a healthcare application that communicates with the measurement device and may be employed to reconfigure the measurement device.

Reconfigurable measurement system

Some embodiments of the present invention include placing a smart device and a peripheral device in pairing mode; detecting at least one pairing motion event with a dual use piezo circuit within the peripheral device; transmitting an indication of the occurrence of the at least one pairing motion event to the smart device; receiving in the smart device the indication of the occurrence of the at least one pairing motion event in satisfaction of at least one pairing condition; and pairing the smart device with the peripheral device in response to satisfaction of the at least one pairing condition. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Device pairing with a dual use piezoelectric acoustic component and vibration sensor

According to one aspect of the present invention, a sensor for diagnosing a physiological or physical state includes a measurement system configured to determine clinical data for one or more parameters related to the physiological or physical state, a first memory configured to store the clinical data, a transmitter configured to transmit the clinical data according to a first communications protocol, a receiver configured to receive enhanced data according to a second communications protocol, and a second memory configured to store the enhanced data. The enhanced data is based on the clinical data.

Clinical data obfuscation and enhancement systems and methods for wireless medical devices

Embodiments of the present invention enable setup synchronization of an end user medical device such as a blood glucose meter. Some embodiments may include a controller including a memory; a transceiver operatively coupled to the controller; and a host computer interface operative to couple the controller to a host computer, wherein the memory is operative to store instructions executable on the controller. The instructions are adapted to cause the controller to scan for an advertising medical device using the transceiver, establish a communications connection with a medical device advertising for synchronization, and transmit synchronization data to a medical device once a communication connection has been estabilshed. Numerous other aspects are disclosed.

Setup synchronization apparatus and methods for end user medical devices

Embodiments of the present application enable setup synchronization of an end user medical device () such as a blood glucose meter. The invention includes a controller () including a memory (); a transceiver () operatively coupled to the controller; and a host computer () interface () operative to couple the controller to a host computer, wherein the memory is operative to store instructions executable on the controller. The instructions are adapted to cause the controller to scan for an advertising medical device using the transceiver, establish a communications connection with a medical device advertising for synchronization, and transmit synchronization data to a medical device once a communication connection has been established. Numerous other aspects are disclosed.

Embodiments of the invention provide systems, methods, and apparatus for arbitrating a multi-master computer bus. The embodiments include a multi-master serial computer bus; a first master coupled to the bus; a second master coupled to the bus; a slave device coupled to the bus; a first I/O line from the first master going to the second master and the slave device; and a second I/O line from the second master going to the first master and the slave device. A bus arbitration protocol for arbitrating use of the bus restricts the masters to a single transaction each time either master becomes a bus master, and the masters are each adapted to use the I/O lines to signal to each other not to become a bus master. Numerous other aspects are disclosed.

Methods and apparatus for a multiple master bus protocol

Embodiments herein provide processing of sensor signals (e.g., signals representative of a level of an analyte in a body). An electronics assembly may include a sensor contact configured to receive a sensor signal from a sensor assembly, an integrator circuit configured to provide an integrator output signal representative of the sensor signal integrated from a first time to a second time, and a reset circuit configured to reset the integrator output signal in response to a reset signal. The electronics assembly may also include a processor circuit configured to determine a value of the integrator output signal and to provide the reset signal to the reset circuit when an integration interval has elapsed from the first time. The integration interval may be based at least in part on the integrator output signal.
