Various methods and systems are provided for monitoring body fluid biomarkers with a wearable device. In one example, the wearable devices includes a sensor adapted to sense the body fluid biomarkers; a microfluidics module including a fluid collector adapted to collect fluid from a subject to which the wearable device is attached, a sensor volume in fluid communication with the sensor, and a wick adapted to wick collected fluid away from the sensor volume, the sensor volume arranged downstream of the fluid collector and upstream of the wick; and an electronics module electrically coupled with the sensor and including a wireless device adapted to wirelessly transfer sensor data received from the sensor. |
