A sensor includes: a needle member defining a hollow portion, wherein the needle member comprises a peripheral wall, and a through hole extends through the peripheral wall; an elongated detection member positioned in the hollow portion and extending along a longitudinal direction of the needle member; and at least one protruding portion that protrudes radially inward from the peripheral wall and restricts movement of the detection member in a radial direction.

Sensor, measuring apparatus, and method of manufacturing sensor

A biological information detection device includes: a needle body configured to pierce the living body; and a sensor that has an elongated shape and is configured to detect biological information using a distal end portion of the sensor that is configured to indwell inside a living body. The distal end portion of the sensor is insertable into the living body by moving along the needle body after the needle body has pierced the living body.

Biological information detection device

A sensor insertion assembly includes: a sensor insertion device comprising a needle member configured to be inserted in a living body together with a biological information sensor and to be pulled out of the living body after leaving a distal end side of the sensor in the living body; and a base plate detachably attached to a first end side of the sensor insertion device, the base plate comprising a clamp portion configured to move so as to clamp a proximal end side of the sensor extending to an outside of the living body after pulling out the needle member and along with an operation of detaching the sensor insertion device from the base plate.

Sensor insertion device set and base plate

A sensor insertion device includes a first elastic member; a second elastic member; an elastic energy variable mechanism configured to elastically deform the first elastic member and the second elastic member to achieve an energy accumulated state; a first holding mechanism configured to hold a position of the first elastic member in the energy accumulated state; and a second holding mechanism configured to hold a position of the second elastic member in the energy accumulated state for a period of time during which, after the release of the first elastic member from the first holding mechanism in the energy accumulated state, the needle member is moved to the insertion position by the first elastic energy.

Sensor insertion device and replacement part

A blood glucose level measuring apparatus and measurement data management apparatus are provided which can carry out measurement of the blood glucose level of a plurality of patients relatively rapidly and reliably, while also addressing emergency situations. The blood glucose level measuring apparatus includes a patient identifier, blood glucose level measuring device, a date/time counter, a display, and a controller. The controller controls in a normal measurement mode the cross-checking of patient identification information and a patient data table, and then, if patient identification information is not found, measurement of the blood glucose level is inhibited. The controller also controls in an emergency measurement mode in which carrying out of measurement of the blood glucose level is permitted without acquiring the patient identification information by the patient identifier.

Blood glucose level measuring apparatus and method, and measurement data management apparatus

An internal temperature sensor for measuring internal temperature of a case of the blood glucose meter is arranged inside the case of the blood glucose meter, and an external temperature sensor configured by components with low heat capacity and adapted for measuring external temperature is arranged at a position separated from the central portion of the case of the blood glucose meter. Further, a microcomputer of the blood glucose meter includes the following processing: judging whether or not the temperature fluctuation falls within the acceptable range based on the difference between the respective temperatures and, if the temperature fluctuation exceeds the acceptable range, temporarily stopping the processing until the temperature fluctuation falls within the acceptable range when in the case where the blood glucose measurement has not yet been performed, or stopping the blood glucose measurement processing when in the case where the blood glucose measurement is being performed.
