摘要:
A near-infrared spectrometer-based analyzer attaches continuously or semi-continuously to a human subject and is used to collect spectral measurements of a tissue sample. The spectral readings are used to estimate a biological parameter in the sampled tissue noninvasively, such as glucose concentration. The preferred apparatus is a near-infrared analyzer that includes a base module and a sample module connected together with a communication bundle. The base module contains the bulk of the analyzer, such as a spectrograph and a central processing unit with an algorithm used for converting the optical signal into a glucose concentration. The sample module is typically in a smaller module that interfaces to a tissue sample. The sample module is preferably handheld and provides minimal sampling distortion due to heat or pressure.

摘要:
A near IR spectrometer-based analyzer attaches continuously or semi-continuously to a human subject and collects spectral measurements for determining a biological parameter in the sampled tissue, such as glucose concentration. The analyzer includes an optical system optimized to target the cutaneous layer of the sampled tissue so that interference from the adipose layer is minimized. The optical system includes at least one optical probe. Spacing between optical paths and detection fibers of each probe and between probes is optimized to minimize sampling of the adipose subcutaneous layer and to maximize collection of light backscattered from the cutaneous layer. Penetration depth is optimized by limiting range of distances between paths and detection fibers. Minimizing sampling of the adipose layer greatly reduces interference contributed by the fat band in the sample spectrum, increasing signal-to-noise ratio. Providing multiple probes also minimizes interference in the sample spectrum due to placement errors.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for calibrating noninvasive or implantable glucose analyzers uses either alternative invasive glucose determinations or noninvasive glucose determinations for calibrating noninvasive or implantable glucose analyzers. Use of an alternative invasive or noninvasive glucose determination in the calibration allows minimization of errors due to sampling methodology, and spatial and temporal variations that are built into the calibration model. An additional embodiment uses statistical correlations between noninvasive and alternative invasive glucose determinations and traditional invasive glucose determinations to adjust noninvasive or alternative invasive glucose concentrations to traditional invasive glucose concentrations. The invention provides a means for calibrating on the basis of glucose determinations that reflect the matrix observed and the variable measured by the analyzer more closely. A glucose analyzer couples an invasive fingerstick meter to a noninvasive glucose analyzer for calibration, validation, adaptation, and safety check of the calibration model embodied in the noninvasive analyzer.
