GlucoRx and Cardiff University are set to bring out the world’s first multi-sensor non-invasive continuous glucose monitor (CGM) to herald a new era of needle-free monitoring for people with diabetes.

The GlucoRx BioXensor™ uses patented radio frequency technology alongside a multiple sensor approach to measure blood glucose levels every minute reliably, accurately, and non-invasively.

According to the World Health Organization, approximately 422 million people around the globe have diabetes.

Currently, people with diabetes have to painfully prick their finger to extract and test their blood several times a day using glucometers or apply semi-invasive devices such as continuous blood glucose monitors (CGMs).

This sounds amazing. I wonder how much they will cost
 
This is really interesting, and it mentions helping pre-diabetics so hopefully a cost effective solution for T2's and those at risk.

Brilliant bit of kit
 
I note that they are waiting for version 4.0 before submitting it for CE approval. That means they have had least three efforts to get any algorithm right. Maybe it's not possible for this technology to assess BG readings with any accuracy.

They report a MARD of 10.4% which would be fine. They don't seem to mention who they tested it on, though.
 
Sounds good hopefully it will work better than their aidex cgm .

IPhone 14 and iOS 15.16.1 doesn't bode well for Apple then.

I'm about to release V6.0 of some software that hasn't gone into production yet.

That doesn't mean I've had 6 attempts to 'get it right'.

I’ve seen quite a few of these get really close to launch (including ones that got CE marked before folding). Hopefully this one will a) work effectively and b) make it over the line.

As you say @Gwynn - the price point will be an important factor. As will accuracy, reliability and performance.

Fingers crossed for it though!
 
I wouldn’t regard bunging on a Libre 2 or other CHM as particularly painful or burdensome. Though if you have to stick it on your arm, I won’t be tempted.
