Diabetic insulin alarm system
First Claim
1. A diabetic shock alarm system designed to be worn on a person'"'"'s wrist and to monitor the wearer'"'"'s body temperature and skin resistance, signalling to the wearer the onset of diabetic shock, the system including:
- Means to sense the body temperature of the wearer and to produce an electrical output,Means to sense the skin resistance of the wearer and to produce an electrical output,Pulse generator means actuated by an abnormal output of both the body temperature sensor means and the skin resistance sensor means to generate pulses only in response to an abnormal output of said sensor means,Oscillator means actuated by pulses of a given polarity produced by the pulse generator,A tuned circuit directly connected to both the pulse generator means and the oscillator means to be energized by both the pulses produced by the pulse generator and oscillations produced by the oscillator means, andAntenna means connected to the tuned circuit to radiate electromagnetic energy at a frequency of an electromagnetic receiver, whereby the wearer may tune the electromagnetic receiver to the frequency of the tuned circuit, the system then alerting the wearer of the onset of diabetic shock through the electromagnetic receiver.

Abstract
The disclosed Diabetic Insulin Alarm System is designed to monitor certain physiological conditions of the wearer associated with insulin shock. The system includes means to sense such physiological conditions of the wearer and to produce an electrical output. This output actuates a pulse generator which in turn energizes an oscillator producing oscillations that are applied both to an enclosed speaker and to a tuned circuit. The tuned circuit, in turn, energizes an antenna which radiates electromagnetic energy at a frequency to which an electromagnetic receiver may be tuned. Thus, by tuning an electromagnetic receiver, such as a radio, to the frequency radiated by the antenna, a wearer can employ the receiver to alert him to the onset of insulin shock, the audible tone produced by the speaker even waking him when asleep.
