Clinical Evaluation of a Novel Insulin Immunosensor

J Diabetes Sci TechnolPublished Diagnostic accuracy study

Authors' conclusion

This proposed technology and preliminary feasibility evaluation show encouraging results for near real-time evaluation of insulin levels, with the potential to improve diabetes management. Real-time measurements of insulin provide person-specific insulin dynamics that could be used to make more informed decisions regarding insulin dosing, thus helping to prevent hypoglycemia and improve diabetes outcomes.
