Non-invasive glucose monitoring technology in diabetes management: A review

Vashist, Sandeep Kumar·2012·Analytica Chimica Acta

Abstract

The frequent monitoring of glucose is an essential part of diabetes management. Despite the fact that almost all the commercially successful blood glucose monitoring devices are invasive, there is an immense need to develop non-invasive glucose monitoring (NGM) devices that will alleviate the pain and suffering of diabetics associated with the frequent pricking of skin for taking the blood sample for glucose testing. There have been numerous developments in the field of NGM during the last decade, which stress the need for a critical review. This manuscript aims to review the various NGM techniques and devices. The challenges and future trends in NGM are also discussed.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Almost all invasive sensing devices have infection risks, discomfort, and analytical response problems related to the foreign body response.

    “Almost all invasive sensing devices are characterized by infection risks, discomfort, and analytical response issues related to the foreign body response (FBR).29–30”
  • Sweating, often linked to hypoglycemia, alters glucose extraction rate and causes erroneous iontophoretic readings.

    “Additionally, sweating, often associated with hypoglycemia, affects the rate of extraction of glucose and therefore causes erroneous results when readings must be most accurate.29–30”
  • Clinical use of a SERS biosensor would require implantation that could cause photothermal damage to nearby tissue from constant laser irradiation.

    “Clinical implementation of a SERS biosensor would require implantation of a device that could lead to photothermal damage of nearby tissue due to constant irradiation by the laser source.30”
  • Raman spectroscopy gives narrow and distinct peaks but requires long spectral acquisition and stabilization times.

    “While Raman spectroscopy gives narrow and distinct peaks (in contrast to NIR absorbance), long spectral acquisition and stabilization times are required.30”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
