Title: A microdialysis technique for continuous subcutaneous glucose monitoring in diabetic patients (part 2). Author: Varalli M, Marelli G, Maran A, Bistoni S, Luzzana M, Cremonesi P, Caramenti G, Valgimigli F, Poscia A. Journal: Biosens Bioelectron; 2003 Jul; 18(7):899-905. PubMed ID: 12713913. Abstract: The aim of this study was to evaluate the reproducibility, the accuracy and the reliability of a continuous subcutaneous glucose measuring system. The GlucoDay system (A. Menarini I.F.R. S.r.l.-Florence, Italy) is a portable instrument provided with a micro-pump and a biosensor, coupled to a microdialysis system (see part 1). This instrument has demonstrated high reliability coupled with a low degree of invasivity. The profiles of glucose monitoring allow to achieve an excellent knowledge of the real variation of glucose in diabetic patients. The reproducibility study showed a bias lower than 10% between instruments. The accuracy study showed a difference from the reference method lower than 15%.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
