Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090035865MOISTURE SENSOR - A moisture sensor is disclosed which measures cumulative exposure to moisture. The moisture sensor comprises a matrix having a hygroscopic material, a first reagent, and a second reagent which interact only in the presence of water to produce a detectable, irreversible change in the matrix to provide a moisture indication. The moisture sensor may be incorporated with a disposable diagnostic device, whereby a method for preventing the use of such a disposable diagnostic device if exposed to excessive cumulative humidity is also disclosed.02-05-2009
20090088336MODULAR POINT-OF-CARE DEVICES, SYSTEMS, AND USES THEREOF - The present invention provides devices and systems for use at the point of care. The methods devices of the invention are directed toward automatic detection of analytes in a bodily fluid. The components of the device are modular to allow for flexibility and robustness of use with the disclosed methods for a variety of medical applications.04-02-2009
20090318775METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR ASSESSING CLINICAL OUTCOMES - Described herein are methods and systems useful for characterizing clinical outcomes of a subject. Provided herein includes computer-assessed methods, medical information systems, and computer-readable instructions that can aid an end-user in diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of a clinical outcome.12-24-2009
20100081144POINT-OF-CARE FLUIDIC SYSTEMS AND USES THEREOF - This invention is in the field of medical devices. Specifically, the present invention provides portable medical devices that allow real-time detection of analytes from a biological fluid. The methods and devices are particularly useful for providing point-of-care testing for a variety of medical applications.04-01-2010
20100248277DETECTION AND QUANTIFICATION OF ANALYTES IN BODILY FLUIDS - This invention is in the field of medical devices. Specifically, the present invention provides portable medical devices that allow detection of analytes from a biological fluid. The methods and devices are particularly useful for providing point-of-care testing for a variety of medical applications.09-30-2010
20110093249INTEGRATED HEALTH DATA CAPTURE AND ANALYSIS SYSTEM - The present invention provides an integrated health care surveillance and monitoring system that provides real-time sampling, modeling, analysis, and recommended interventions. The system can be used to monitor infectious and chronic diseases. When faced with outbreak of an infectious disease agent, e.g., influenza virus, the system can identify active cases through pro-active sampling in high risk locations, such as schools or crowded commercial areas. The system can notify appropriate entities, e.g., local, regional and national governments, when an event is detected, thereby allowing for proactive management of a possible outbreak. The system also predicts the best response for deployment of scarce resources.04-21-2011
20110104826CALIBRATION OF FLUIDIC DEVICES - The present invention provides methods of calibrating a fluidic device useful for detecting an analyte of interest in a bodily fluid. The invention also provides methods for assessing the reliability of an assay for an analyte in a bodily fluid with the use of a fluidic device. Another aspect of the invention is a method for performing a trend analysis on the concentration of an analyte in a subject using a fluidic device.05-05-2011
20120034598Real-Time Detection of Influenza Virus - The present invention provides system and methods for detecting an analyte indicative of an influenza viral infection in a sample of bodily fluid. The present invention also provides for systems and method for detection a plurality of analytes, at least two of which are indicative of an influenza viral infection in a sample of bodily fluid.02-09-2012
