Evaluation of subcutaneously-implanted glucose sensors for continuous glucose measurements in hyperglycemic pigs.
BACKGROUND Subcutaneously-implanted glucose sensors for continuous glucose monitoring have the potential to replace serial blood glucose measurements. The objective of the present study was to test whether continuous glucose measurements could be obtained with glucose sensors implanted in the subcutis of pigs. Moreover, the in vivo biocompatibility of the sensors was evaluated since an inflamma...
متن کاملChronically Implanted Pressure Sensors: Challenges and State of the Field
Several conditions and diseases are linked to the elevation or depression of internal pressures from a healthy, normal range, motivating the need for chronic implantable pressure sensors. A simple implantable pressure transduction system consists of a pressure-sensing element with a method to transmit the data to an external unit. The biological environment presents a host of engineering issues...
متن کاملGlucose-Sensitive Holographic (Bio)Sensors: Fundamentals and Applications
Nowadays sensors and especially biosensors play an important role in medical diagnosis and detection of food and environment contaminations. Biosensors’ facilities have been improved significantly by using technologies such as surface plasmon resonance, microfluidics, laser, and electrochemistry. These technologies are now available on chips in micro- and nano-scale and are capable of mea...
متن کاملBenefits of three-month continuous glucose monitoring for persons with diabetes using insulin pumps and sensors.
BACKGROUND The latest Paradigm 722 insulin pump, Medtronic MiniMed, USA, enables daily reading of 288 interstitial fluid glucose concentrations determined by a sensor inserted into subcutaneous tissue; the sensor signals are transmitted into the insulin pump, enabling the patient to see real-time glucose concentration on the display and adapt further treatment. AIMS To assess the evolution of...
متن کاملA Glucose BioFuel Cell Implanted in Rats
Powering future generations of implanted medical devices will require cumbersome transcutaneous energy transfer or harvesting energy from the human body. No functional solution that harvests power from the body is currently available, despite attempts to use the Seebeck thermoelectric effect, vibrations or body movements. Glucose fuel cells appear more promising, since they produce electrical e...
