Optimized sensor geometry for an implantable glucose sensor |
abstract |
An implantable sensor for use in measuring a concentration of an analyte such as glucose in a bodily fluid, including a body (11) with a sensing region (114) adapted for transport of analytes between the sensor and the bodily fluid. The sensing region (114) is located on a curved portion of the body (116) such that when a foreign body capsule forms around the sensor, a contractile force (112) is exerted by the foreign body capsule toward the sensing region (114). The body is partially or entirely curved , partially or entirely covered with an anchoring material for supporting tissue ingrowth, and designed for subcutaneous tissue implantation. The geometric design, including curvature, shape, and other factors minimize chronic inflammatory response at the sensing region and contribute to improved performance of the sensor in vivo. |
