A generic implantable puck that can be used with a number of biosensor configurations. This generic implantable potentiostat telemetry unit (the puck) can also be part of a system to detect glucose concentrations. An electrochemical system partially implantable into a body for detecting glucose concentrations therein is presented. The system comprises an electrochemical sensor, a transmitting puck including an electric circuit connected to the electrochemical sensor for transmitting a signal indicative of the glucose concentrations in the body. There is at least one receiver for receiving the signal from the transmitting puck and a computer system coupled tlo the at least one receiver for processing the signal for patient diagnosis and treatment.

Generic integrated implantable potentiostat telemetry unit for electrochemical sensors

A comparator for comparing the operation of activity monitors of the type having internal sensors responsive to excitation forces in order to record the activity of a wearer, includes a housing having a test platform and a monitor-receiving test fixture for holding an activity monitor motionless during testing. The comparator further includes an electromagnet for applying an excitation force to the monitor, by converting a prerecorded digital signal, or waveform, into analog voltage signals which are applied to the electromagnet for testing the monitor. The monitor may be subjected to a variety of test patterns of activity.
