FIELD: medical equipment.
SUBSTANCE: group of inventions relates to medical equipment, namely to a medical system for determining an analyte in the physiological fluid of the user and to a method for manufacture thereof. The system is comprised of a body, a pre-assembled functional module, and a removable protective cover connected with the body and covering the functional module. The module is place in the body and includes an analytical sensor for determining an analyte in a physiological fluid, an electronics unit electrically connected with the sensor, and an insertion component for inserting the sensor into the body tissue. The cap of the functional module surrounds the insertion component to maintain sterility. The protective cover can be removed from the body by pulling. The guiding surface of the body determines the direction of movement of the protective cover during pulling. The functional module comprises a guiding surface determining the direction of movement of the cap during pulling from the insertion component. The length of the guiding surface of the body exceeds the length of the guiding surface provided for the cap. The cap is connected with the protective cover and can be pulled from the insertion component when the protective cover is pulled from the body. The method for manufacture of the medical system includes providing a body, pre-assembling a functional module, placing the functional module in the body and connecting a removable protective cover with the body to close the functional module.
EFFECT: provided is a medical system with a high degree of protection against adverse effects of mechanical factors and the environment, allowing the user to easily insert the analyte sensor into a body tissue by executing a small amount of intuitive steps; safe removal of the cap from the insertion component and prevention of damage to the latter by the cap during removal thereof due to the connection between the cap and the protective cover is achieved, resulting in increasing and improving orientability of the cap during removal thereof, since lateral movements become possible upon increasing the directional movement only after safe removal of the cap from an insertion component such as a cannula.
