Publication number: 20250032016Abstract: The disclosed techniques include applying one or more voltage pulses to a working electrode of a sensor probe. The techniques may also involve measuring, using a current sensor, a set of one or more current responses corresponding to the applied one or more voltage pulses, wherein the set of one or more current responses form a quasi-Cottrell profile that approximates a portion of a Cottrell curve. The techniques may further involve comparing a characteristic of the quasi-Cottrell profile to sets of predetermined Cottrell profiles. The techniques may further involve calibrating the current sensor based on the comparison.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 16, 2024Publication date: January 30, 2025Inventors: Santhisagar Vaddiraju, Shawn C. Kelley

Publication number: 20240268721Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for measuring an analyte in a biological system. A system may include a medical device with an electrochemical sensor configured to sense the concentration of a plurality of analytes present in a biological system. Processing circuitry of the system may retrieve, identify, and process a respective signal from a respective work electrode to determine the concentration of a respective analyte. The system may further include an implantable medical device configured to sense a cardiac electrogram (EGM). In some examples, the system may be configured to determine one or more patient-specific relationships between the respective signals of the electrochemical sensor and the cardiac EGM during a first period of time. Based on the patient-specific relationships, the system may estimate concentrations of the one or more analytes corresponding to the respective signals based on the cardiac EGM of the patient collected over a second period of time.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 3, 2024Publication date: August 15, 2024Inventors: Daniel Hahn, Akhil Srinivasan, Patrick W.
