Progress toward the development of an implantable sensor for glucose.
The development of an electrochemically based implantable sensor for glucose is described. The sensor is needle-shaped, about the size of a 28-gauge needle. It is flexible and must be implanted subcutaneously by using a 21-gauge catheter, which is then removed. When combined with a monitoring unit, this device, based on the glucose oxidase-catalyzed oxidation of glucose, reliably monitors gluco...
متن کاملToward a Continuous Intravascular Glucose Monitoring System
Proof-of-concept studies that display the potential of using a glucose-sensitive hydrogel as a continuous glucose sensor are presented. The swelling ratio, porosity, and diffusivity of the hydrogel increased with glucose concentration. In glucose solutions of 50, 100, 200, and 300 mg/dL, the hydrogel swelling ratios were 4.9, 12.3, 15.9, and 21.7, respectively, and the swelling was reversible. ...
متن کاملFabrication and Testing of an Osmotic Pressure Sensor for Glucose Sensing Application
This paper presents a chemical reaction-free sensor, based on the osmosis principle, fabricated to measure the change in glucose concentration levels. The sensor consists of a square cavity filled with a known concentration of glucose solution and sealed with a semi-permeable membrane. The volume inside the cavity changes in proportion to the glucose concentration outside the device and introdu...
متن کاملA MEMS viscometric sensor for continuous glucose monitoring
We present a MEMS sensor aiming to enable continuous monitoring of glucose levels in diabetes patients. The device features a magnetically-driven vibrating microcantilever, which is situated in a microchamber and separated from the environment by a semi-permeable membrane. Glucose sensing is based on affinity binding principles using a solution of dextran concanavalin-A (Con A) as the sensing f...
متن کاملToward an agent-based patient-physician model for the adoption of continuous glucose monitoring technology.
Health care is a major component of the U.S. economy, and tremendous research and development efforts are directed toward new technologies in this arena. Unfortunately few tools exist for predicting outcomes associated with new medical products, including whether new technologies will find widespread use within the target population. Questions of technology adoption are rife within the diabetes...
