TLDR
A miniaturized device for simultaneous measurement of glucose and lactate levels was produced by means of photopatterning of enzyme-containing photosensitive membrane precursors and subcutaneous measurements of glucose levels in pigs were close to the corresponding blood levels obtained without in vivo calibration.
Abstract
A miniaturized device for simultaneous measurement of glucose and lactate levels was produced by means of photopatterning of enzyme-containing photosensitive membrane precursors. This device shows no cross-talk and a lifetime for both the glucose and the lactate sensors of more than 2 weeks when continuously operated in undiluted bovine serum. Linear response ranges of up to 40 mM for glucose and 25 mM for l-lactate, in combination with 95% response times of 0.98 with respect to laboratory techniques. Subcutaneous measurements of glucose levels in pigs were close to the corresponding blood levels obtained without in vivo calibration.

Subcutaneous glucose electrode

TL;DR: In this article, a small diameter flexible electrode designed for subcutaneous in vivo amperometric monitoring of glucose is described, which is designed to allow "one-point" in vivo calibration, i.e., to have zero output current at zero glucose concentration, even in the presence of other electroreactive species of serum or blood.

Cortical evoked potential and extracellular K+ and H+ at critical levels of brain ischemia.

TL;DR: The hypothesis that electrical failure in ischemia may be directly associated with a massive release of intracellular K+ or with a critical degree of extracellular acidosis is tested and the concept of an ischemic penumbra during which the neurons remain structurally intact but functionally inactive is supported.

Performance of subcutaneously implanted needle-type glucose sensors employing a novel trilayer coating

TL;DR: A miniature, needle-type glucose sensor based on a new trilayer membrane configuration has been prepared and evaluated both in vitro and in vivo, and remained functional after 1 week of implantation, but failed after 2 weeks due to degradation of the reference electrode.

Evaluation of a novel point-of-care system, the i-STAT portable clinical analyzer.

TL;DR: The i-STAT Portable Clinical Analyzer system was evaluated for precision, accuracy, and utility in emergency department and stat laboratory settings and mean hematocrit values significantly differed between the PCA and the Coulter ST, apparently because of different calibration procedures.
