Indwelling intravascular continuous blood glucose monitoring device. The GlucoSet intravascular sensor delivers continuous and accurate information on patient's blood glucose level, enabling normalization of glucose levels, without the risk of sudden and dangerously low glucose levels. By accessing through an indwelling arterial catheter without disrupting that catheter's current use, the GlucoSet sensor requires no new catheters and displaces no other equipment. The company claims that unlike competing solutions, the sensor also tolerates patient movement very well. The company also claims that with a sensor cross sectional area under 5% of the smallest competing product, GlucoSet is the first sensor able to access through arterial catheters without risk.
