Abstract
A personal diagnostic patch device for biological analysis includes a sample acquisition layer for obtaining a fluid sample, a fluidic processing layer including a fluidic circuit for directing fluid flow, an assay results detection layer having a detector for detecting diagnostic results derived from fluid sample analysis, and a processor and transmitter for sending diagnostic results to a remote location. The layers are situated in register with each other and operatively attached with constituent elements in alignment to form the fluidic circuit for sample processing, detection, and analysis. Related systems include a remotely located user computer for receiving a signal from the patch device when the device is provided with the transmitter. The user computer may be connected to a network including any one or more of several different medical providers. Methods include use of the patch device for specific applications, related processes, and steps for manufacturing and assembling.
