Filed:

May 29, 2008

Appl. No.:

12/129185

Inventors:

Igor Gofman - Croton-on-Hudson NY, US
Jun Chen - Warren NJ, US

Assignee:

Bayer Healthcare LLC - Tarrytown NY

International Classification:

G08B 21/00

US Classification:

3406362, 3406361, 340603, 3405731, 600365

Abstract:

A system and method is described for rapid charging and power management of a battery for a meter. A charger component is operably associated with the meter and is capable of executing a rapid charge algorithm for a rechargeable battery. The algorithm includes monitoring for a connection to an external power source and implementing a charging routine of a battery at a first charge rate and then at a second charge rate. The second charge rate is lower than the first charge rate. A temperature rise in the rechargeable battery due to the first charge rate has a negligible heat transfer effect on the fluid sample. The meter can also include a power switch for controlling current flow to a battery fuel gauge. The power switch is open when the meter enters into a sleep mode. The state of battery charge is determined after the meter exits the sleep mode.

International Classification:

G06F 15/00

US Classification:

702130, 3406362, 3405731, 340603

Abstract:

A system for a meter configured to determine an analyte concentration of a fluid sample includes a housing and a temperature sensor disposed within the housing. The system also includes a processor configured to receive temperature data from the temperature sensor upon the meter entering one of a charge state and a discharge state. The processor is further configured to predict a temperature value that approximates the ambient temperature outside of the housing. The predicted temperature value is based on historical temperature data received from the temperature sensor such that the predicted temperature value remains constant if a recently received temperature value remains within predetermined upper and lower temperature thresholds and the recently received temperature value exceeds the at least one predicted temperature value.

Abstract:

A transfer module, such as a single board computer having wireless communication capabilities, may be attached to an image guided surgery (“IGS”) navigation system. Images, video, and data stored on the IGS navigation system may be moved to and stored on the transfer module in an encrypted format. The transfer module may connect to a secure network or other secure wireless communication and transfer encrypted IGS medical procedure data to a physician device, a hospital system device, or other device. After validation, the physician device or other device may decrypt and display the data. The transfer module may be useful for IGS navigation systems having no preexisting wireless capabilities; and for those having wireless capabilities that are less secure than those provided by the modified IGS navigation system. The transfer module may also wirelessly transmit IGS medical procedure data to a cloud storage system for subsequent access by end users.
