  • Patent number: 11950904
    Abstract: A method of determining glucose values during continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) measurements includes providing a CGM device including a sensor, a memory, and a processor; applying a constant voltage potential to the sensor; measuring a primary current signal resulting from the constant voltage potential and storing the measured primary current signal in the memory; applying a probing potential modulation sequence to the sensor; measuring probing potential modulation current signals resulting from the probing potential modulation sequence and storing measured probing potential modulation current signals in the memory; determining an initial glucose concentration based on a conversion function and a measured probing potential modulation current signal; determining a connection function value based on the primary current signal and a plurality of the probing potential modulation current signals; and determining a final glucose concentration based on the initial glucose concentration and the connection functio

  • Patent number: 11737688
    Abstract: Apparatus and methods are operative to probe the condition of a sensor either initially, at any point thereafter or continuously during a continuous sensor operation for measuring an analyte in a bodily fluid (such as performed by, e.g., a continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) sensor). Results of the probe may include calibration indices determined from electrical signals obtained during the probe. The calibration indices may indicate whether in-situ adjustment of the sensor's calibration should be performed either initially and/or at random check points. Probing potential modulation parameters also may be used during analyte calculations to reduce the effects of lot-to-lot sensitivity variations, sensitivity drift during monitoring, temperature, interferents, and/or the like. Other aspects are disclosed.
