Home blood glucose biosensors: a commercial perspective.
Twenty years on from a review in the first issue of this journal, this contribution revisits glucose sensing for diabetes with an emphasis on commercial developments in the home blood glucose testing market. Following a brief introduction to the needs of people with diabetes, the review considers defining technologies that have enabled the introduction of commercial products and then reviews th...
متن کاملProposal for standardizing direct-reading biosensors for blood glucose.
Direct-reading glucose biosensors sense molality (glucose per unit water mass) in the sample. With aqueous calibration, a direct-reading glucose biosensor produces higher results in blood and plasma than methods measuring concentration, theoretically by the ratio of water concentrations in calibrator and sample. To confirm this, we measured glucose in 14- blood and 40 plasma samples with the di...
متن کاملHome monitoring of glucose and blood pressure.
Home monitoring of blood glucose and blood pressure levels can provide patients and physicians with valuable information in the management of diabetes mellitus and hypertension. Home monitoring allows patients to play an active role in their care and may improve treatment adherence and clinical outcomes. Glucose meters currently on the market produce results within 15 percent of serum blood glu...
متن کاملProblems in home monitoring of blood glucose.
Two hundred and forty blood glucose readings were made on 5 Glucochek machines by 2 different operators. The results on all machines correlated poorly with equivalent results from an automatic glucose analyser with major discrepancies at all glucose concentrations. There was a wide gap in performance between the 2 operators. Analysis of variance suggested that errors were not only due to inter-...
متن کاملDetermination of glucose levels using dried filter paper blood spots: new perspective in home monitoring.
We present a method for the determination of blood glucose using dried filter paper blood spots. To validate this method, we compared our results using filter paper and simultaneously collected venous blood. We demonstrated that there is a linear relationship between the filter paper glucose levels and those determined in whole blood (r = 0.98). There was no significant difference between the r...
