Abstract
Disclosed herein are devices, systems, and methods for a continuous analyte sensor, such as a continuous glucose sensor. In certain embodiments disclosed herein, various in vivo properties of the sensor's surroundings can be measured. In some embodiments, the measured properties can be used to identify a physiological response or condition in the body. This information can then be used by a patient, doctor, or system to respond appropriately to the identified condition.
Claims23
A method for processing data from a continuous glucose sensor, the method comprising:
- receiving sensor data generated by a continuous glucose sensor, wherein the sensor data is indicative of a concentration of glucose in a host;
- identifying, using a processor module, a post-implantation loss of sensitivity of the continuous glucose sensor;
- and
- processing the sensor data, using the processor module, responsive to the identification of the loss of sensitivity.
