US 2023/0147473 A1 · HYPOGLYCEMIA AND/OR HYPERGLYCEMIA DETECTOR

Abstract

Hypoglycemia and/or hyperglycemia detector (100), including an enclosure (110), one or more gas sensors (132) and one or more processors (134). The enclosure (100) includes a bottom surface (112) configured for positioning against skin (10), for example with an adhesive patch (20). The sensors (132) are positioned within the enclosure (110) and configured for detecting gas emissions from the skin (10) for providing one or more measurement signals. The processors (134) are configured for detecting an indication of hypoglycemia and/or an indication of hyperglycemia from the one or more measurement signals for providing an alarm signal when the indication of hypoglycemia and/or the indication hyperglycemia is detected.
