Continuous Ketone Monitoring: A New Paradigm for Physiologic Monitoring

[Northerner]

Abstract​

In this issue of JDST, Alva and colleagues present for the first time, development of a continuous ketone monitor (CKM) tested both in vitro and in humans. Their sensor measured betahydroxybutyrate (BHB) in interstitial fluid (ISF). The sensor was based on wired enzyme electrochemistry technology using BHB dehydrogenase. The sensor required only a single retrospective calibration without a need for further adjustments over 14 days.

Interesting. Sounds like it might be able to be incorporated into a Libre sensor? 🙂

What a daft idea. Who needs to monitor their ketones continually?
