Definitions
- the invention relates to a medical system comprising a central control unit and an invasive unit with at least one invasive consumable. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method for monitoring a medical system. Such medical systems and methods for monitoring the medical systems are used in particular in the field of medical diagnostics and medical therapy, for example as part of a homecare program for diabetic patients or in the context of hospital diagnostics or therapeutics in hospitals and nursing homes. Other applications are possible.
- the concentrations of different analytes in the patient's body fluids must be monitored regularly. For example, monitoring blood glucose levels for diabetics is an essential part of the daily routine. As a rule, the blood glucose concentration must be determined quickly and reliably several times a day in order to be able to take appropriate medical measures if necessary.
- a corresponding medication In addition to diagnostics, a corresponding medication also plays a decisive role. For example, in order to compensate for fluctuations in the blood glucose concentration, a diabetic must make an insulin medication adapted to the measured blood glucose concentrations. In order to limit the daily routine of the patients, especially the diabetics, no more than necessary, are used for both the diagnosis and for the medication often appropriate mobile devices that should be easy to transport and handle, so that the measurement or the medication For example, at work, on the road or in the leisure can be done.
- lancing devices can also be reversibly mechanically connected to a measuring device used for determining the analyte concentration, as described, for example, in EP 1 032 307 B1. Despite this mechanical coupling, the lancing device and the measuring device are, however, still independently functioning units and together form a medical system.
- the lancets are usually disposable products, which include, for example, a sharply ground metal pin and a molded plastic holder, which connect to the lancing device.
- lancets are possible, for example, lancets in the form of sharp edges or mandrels, which are moved accordingly by the lancing device.
- lancets can easily be counterfeited or imitated.
- counterfeit lancets or other consumables can create significant health hazards and injuries when used. This applies in particular to invasive consumables, ie consumables which are set up to intervene (such as lancets) in a body tissue of a patient.
- Another disadvantage of such counterfeit consumables is that due to inadequate fits, some of the peripherals used devices can be damaged.
- counterfeit consumables and counterfeiting cause the affected companies considerable economic damage and, in case of malfunctions, reputational damage.
- the lancets or other types of consumables may be arranged in a magazine so that the user does not have to change the lancet before each use of a lancing device, but only exchanges the magazine at longer intervals when all the lancets contained therein have been used up.
- a lancing device with a lancet magazine is the lancing device "Accu-Chek Multiclix" from Roche Diagnostics GmbH.
- Lancets, lancet magazines and lancing devices are generally purely mechanical parts without electrical or analytical functions.
- consumables may also be affected which have an analytical function (for example test elements or subcutaneous sensors), consumables for the medication (for example cannulas, catheters or the like) or other types of consumables.
- consumables in general are often referred to as "disposables" in diagnostics.
- RFID labels high-frequency labels
- the RFID technology as an example of electronic identifiers includes the contactless identification by means of radio waves.
- the information of such an RFID tag which is also referred to as an RFID label and which contains an electronic chip, are usually transmitted wirelessly via radio with different frequencies to a reader, which can then display and / or store the information.
- RFID tags that can store electronically readable information are generally available in numerous designs.
- RFIDs are also known, which are based on organic electronics (for example, semiconducting or conductive polymers).
- inexpensive, printed designs of electronic identifiers are known.
- the information is encrypted, for example, in an electrically conductive barcode and can be read without contact via numerous antennas in a reader.
- An example of such a design is disclosed in WO 2004/088037 Al.
- a medical system generally consists of a plurality of individual components, which, even if these components can be partially integrated into a common housing or mechanically connected to one another, usually perform their functions independently of one another.
- An example is the aforementioned lancing aids, which almost always have purely mechanical functionality and which are functionally not interacting with a measuring device, which in turn is used for measuring an analyte concentration in a blood sample generated by the lancing device.
- a user would thus, in order to detect counterfeit consumables, also have to carry with him a separate reading device in the above-mentioned methods for identifying these consumables, which can read out the identifiers.
- this is hardly possible in many cases for reasons of space and also represents an increased cost.
- peripheral devices such as purely mechanical lancing devices
- purely mechanically operating peripheral devices generally have no display capability for displaying the information of the identifiers of the consumables.
- the Users are not provided with information about these consumables, such as lancets.
- a peripheral device such as a lancing device
- both devices are typically functional decoupled from each other, so that the user still has no way, as usual, lack of clear identification of consumables counterfeits reliably detect.
- EP 1 043 037 A2 describes an injection device with a pen containing a syringe to be pressed out.
- the dosage when squeezing the syringe is adjusted with a Dosiermengen- setting.
- an external display device is provided, which can be attached to the pen. Via contacts and mating contacts, information about the dosing quantity is transmitted to the display unit and displayed on a large-format display.
- the pen is also proposed to use the pen with a coding recognizable by the display device in the form of elevations or depressions. so that the display device always knows which Pen or Pentyp it works with.
- EP 1 043 037 A2 is very specifically tailored to a specific unit and thus inflexible with respect to changing combinations of the individual components.
- a direct mechanical coupling must be made, and when using a pen not recognizable by the display device, the system is not functional.
- EP 1 352 611 describes a measuring unit with a container for test elements, which can be provided with an information chip in order to transmit to a measuring device of the unit information about the number and calibration data of test strips.
- necessary information is passed on to the measuring device via the RFID tag, which would otherwise have to be transferred to the measuring device, for example via a so-called ROM key or other information sources, or manually in order to enable an evaluation of the test strips.
- the RFID tag in the dispenser as described in US 2006/0182656 and EP 1 352 611, is merely a variant of known methods and apparatus for providing the meter with information needed for measurement without the need for meaningful measurement or evaluation of the measurement would be difficult or impossible.
- RFID technology is used to transfer information between parts of a measurement unit.
- US 2004/0138688 describes the identification of a lancet in which the identification is in the form of a barcode.
- this barcode has no electronic information and can not be identified by a device that does not make direct visual contact with the consumable.
- US 2007/0232879 A1 describes devices and methods for determining an analyte concentration.
- a mounting unit which serves to attach a transdermal sensor.
- this mounting unit comprises an electronic unit which, inter alia, comprises an RFID identifier for identifying the sensor. Signals from this RFID identifier can be picked up by a receiver unit.
- US 2002/0004403 A1 describes a unit comprising a biological head (BIH) with sensors for monitoring physiological parameters and a control module (Communication and Control Module, CCM), which activates and reads the measuring head.
- BIH biological head
- CCM Communication and Control Module
- several sensors can be provided.
- BIH and CCM can be wireless data transmission.
- an identification management is proposed in which, for example, the exchange of information about the sensor type plays a role.
- WO 2006/065754 A2 describes a sensor dispenser which is set up to determine an analyte concentration in a body fluid.
- a cartridge with test strips is accommodated in a cap of the instrument, whereby calibration information can be transferred from the cartridge to the instrument.
- the instrument comprises a lancet device.
- the object of the present invention is therefore to provide a medical system and a method for monitoring a medical system, which avoid the disadvantages of known medical systems and methods for monitoring such systems.
- the medical system and method should enable a user to independently, easily, reliably and quickly identify counterfeit consumables.
- One idea of the present invention is to combine components which hitherto functioned largely independently of one another to form a medical system in which a central control unit is provided which can centrally assume the abovementioned tasks of identifying consumables.
- a central control unit already present in the overall system measuring device, which has its own “intelligence" (for example in the context of a microcontroller) and which is thus suitable to monitor independently acting peripheral devices such as lancing devices .
- a medical system which comprises a central control unit and at least one invasive unit.
- the medical system can be set up, for example, to take on one or more therapeutic tasks and / or diagnostic tasks and / or tasks of sample collection.
- the medical system can be a medical system which can be used for monitoring and treating diabetic patients, in particular in the so-called home care sector.
- the medical system is thus composed of several components which comprise at least the central control unit and at least one invasive unit. These components can be functionally independent of each other, can be handled decentralized independently of each other, but can also be completely or partially mechanically combined, for example via a common housing, via connecting elements or the like.
- the central control unit is set up to display at least one diagnostic measured value by means of a display element.
- This diagnostic measured value can be determined, for example, by the central control unit itself, but can also be input externally into the central control unit.
- the central control unit thus serves as an interface between a patient and the medical system. It is particularly preferred if a measuring device is used as the central control unit, which is already present in a medical system (for example, a medical system for diagnosing and / or treating a diabetic patient).
- the central control unit may have at least one measuring function for determining a diagnostic measured value, for example an optical and / or electrochemical measuring function for determining a blood glucose value, a lactate value, a cholesterol value or another analyte concentration in a sample of a body fluid.
- the central control unit may have, for example, one or more test elements, for example test strips.
- this central control unit comprises a data processing electronics, such as one or more micro-controllers, by means of which the display of the diagnostic measurement value is supported and by means of which data processing functions can also be exercised.
- the central measuring unit has at least one optical and / or electrochemical measuring unit which is set up to determine a concentration of an analyte, in particular a metabolite, in a body fluid by means of at least one test element. Furthermore, without restricting the conversion According to the invention, it is assumed that the central control unit comprises a blood glucose meter which can determine a blood glucose concentration by means of a test strip or test strip with a corresponding test element and an optical and / or electrochemical measuring unit and this blood glucose concentration by means of, for example designed as a display, display element can transmit to a patient.
- a defined central control unit for which, as described above, preferably an existing anyway in a medical system unit with its own “intelligence", ie, for example, with at least one microcontroller or other unit with options for performing arithmetic operations, is used, which includes medical system continues to have at least one invasive unit .
- This at least one invasive unit is functionally independent of the central control unit.Functionally independent means that the respective function of control unit and invasive unit can be exercised independently of the presence of the other unit In other words, the central control unit and the invasive unit should be autonomous, that is, functionally independent of one another.For the definition of the system concept, reference may also be made to the description of FIG n.
- the invasive unit comprises at least one invasive consumable.
- the invasive entity as a whole and / or the invasive consumable are designed to invasively engage a patient's tissue.
- intervention may mean a perforation of the tissue, for example a perforation of a skin area to obtain a sample of a body fluid, and / or a temporary or permanent implantation of the invasive consumable means, such as the introduction of a cannula or a subcutaneous sensor in a body tissue.
- the invasive unit may generally include a peripheral device that interacts with the invasive consumable.
- the peripheral device and the invasive consumable may then together form the invasive unit.
- Under a peripheral device is generally understood to mean a device which is functionally independent of the central control unit and which is arranged to (for example, autonomously) to ensure the function of the invasive unit.
- a peripheral device is generally understood to mean a device which is functionally independent of the central control unit and which is arranged to (for example, autonomously) to ensure the function of the invasive unit.
- the invasive unit may preferably have a sample collection function, which can be realized, for example, by a lancet.
- the invasive unit may have, for example, a peripheral device configured as a lancing device, wherein the lancing device is configured to perforate a skin area of a patient by means of a consumable designed as a lancet.
- the invasive unit may further comprise, for example, a medication function, in particular a dosing function.
- This medication function can be realized in various ways.
- the invasive unit may have a peripheral device in the form of a medication pen.
- Most common embodiments of such medication sticks are insulin pens.
- such medication sticks are configured to inject a patient with a dose of a medicament by means of a disposable dispenser configured as a cannula.
- this dose may be preset and administration of the dose may be by manual actuation of the medication pen, such as depressing a punch.
- the medication function can also be designed automated, for example by means of a peripheral device designed as a medication pump.
- a peripheral device designed as a medication pump.
- Most common embodiments of such medication pumps are insulin pumps that automatically automate a patient, for example, over a predefined period of time, delivering a set dose of insulin.
- the medication pump is designed to inject a dose of a medicament by means of a consumable designed as a catheter.
- the invasive consumable in this case usually includes a tube and a cannula, which can be exchanged and disposed of as a unit or separately.
- the invasive unit may further comprise an analytical and / or diagnostic function.
- the invasive unit may comprise a peripheral device configured as a measuring unit, wherein the measuring unit is configured to deliver a concentration of an analyte, in particular a metabolite, in a body fluid by means of a consumable comprising a subcutaneous sensor inserted in a body tissue of a patient determine.
- the consumable may include, for example, in addition to a replaceable subcutaneous sensor leads, implantation aids or the like. It should be noted that the measured value supplied by this measuring unit is preferably independent of the one described above Measurement function of the central control unit.
- the measurement unit may be configured to continuously measure over one or more days in the body tissue of the patient, whereas the central control unit is arranged for point measurements.
- the central control unit with its measuring function can be used to carry out a calibration measurement of the measured values supplied by a subcutaneous sensor.
- the central control unit and the invasive unit are preferably designed to be completely functionally independent, i. independently of each other perform their respective functions, even if these units may be mechanically interconnected, for example. It is particularly preferred if the invasive unit is as simple as possible, i. For example, it does not have its own intelligence or electronics.
- the invasive unit can comprise purely mechanical functions (such as, for example, a purely mechanically functioning piercing aid), which, however, can also be designed, for example, as electromechanical functions.
- the lancing device can also be electrically driven, and / or the medication function can be configured by a pump or a differently designed actuator.
- this invasive consumable is a particularly critical point of the medical system because, due to the invasive properties of the consumable, it comes into direct contact with open body tissue of a patient.
- sterilization problems are particularly critical for this consumable, which can occur, for example, when such consumables are used inadmissible often.
- Another problem is the already mentioned counterfeiting problem, since, for example, improperly packaged, improperly stored or improperly manufactured consumables can also lead to damage to the patient, with sometimes serious consequences for the health of the patient.
- a third problem is the interaction between the invasive consumable and the rest of the invasive device, such as the peripheral device.
- counterfeiting or improper manufacture of the consumable may, as described above, result in damage to the invasive unit or other types of malfunction.
- the invasive unit with at least one non-contact readable electronic identifier.
- the central control unit can be designed with a corresponding interface for reading out the electronic identifier, for example an interface which is set up for transmitting and / or receiving electromagnetic waves, preferably in the high-frequency range.
- the medical system according to the present invention differs fundamentally from systems in which electronic identifiers are used to establish the operational readiness of the system.
- US 2006/0182656 A1 in which, when inserting a test strip from a test strip dispenser, batch information of the test strip is transmitted to a measuring device, without which the measuring device could not perform its function, in the present case the invasive unit and the central one work Control unit independently.
- the central control unit merely assumes the additional task of reading out the at least one piece of information and, as explained in more detail below, making it available for further uses.
- the idea of the present invention also differs, for example, from EP 1 352 611 A1.
- the advantage of the embodiment of the medical system according to the invention is that now information about the at least one inserted invasive unit is centrally available in an independent control unit.
