Various examples are directed to systems and methods for measuring a parameter related to patient health. An analyte sensor system may detect that the analyte sensor system has been applied to a host and may store analyte data describing the host. The analyte sensor system may determine that sensor use at the analyte sensor system has terminated and upload stored analyte data to an upload computing device.

Intermittent monitoring

Various examples are directed to systems and methods for patient monitoring. An example method comprises receiving an estimated glucose concentration level of the patient from a continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) system for a first time period. The method may also include receiving non-glucose information relating to the patient for the first time period and determining a relationship between the estimated glucose concentration level and the non-glucose information. The method may also include receiving non-glucose information relating to the patient for a second time period and determining diabetic information about the patient for the second time period based upon the determined relationship and the non-glucose information. The method may include electronically delivering a notification about the diabetic information.

Various examples are directed to systems and methods for monitoring a patient. For example, patient data of a first type may be monitored with a low-fidelity monitoring technique over a first time period. Patient behavior may be evaluated based on the monitored first type of patient data. Patient data of a second type may be monitored over a second time period with a continuous glucose monitor device. A parameter of the continuous glucose monitor device may be based on the evaluated patient behavior during the monitoring.

A manually operable device that is used to cut a synthetic material and also singe the end of this newly cut material to prevent it from unravelling. This tool incorporates a separate crimping assembly, cutting assembly, and burning assembly for each of these steps. The crimping assembly holds the material in place during the cutting and burning stages and also aids in fusing the melted ends of the material into a uniform mass. The cutting assembly cuts the material where desired, trims any stray fibers from the cut and/or fused end, and also removes any excess burn from this fused end. The burning assembly, connected to a reservoir, burns a flammable fluid so as to burn or singe the material placed thereover.
