A continuous glucose monitoring system may utilize externally sourced information regarding the physiological state and ambient environment of its user for externally calibrating sensor glucose measurements. Externally sourced factory calibration information may be utilized, where the information is generated by comparing metrics obtained from the data used to generate the sensor's glucose sensing algorithm to similar data obtained from each batch of sensors to be used with the algorithm in the future. The output sensor glucose value of a glucose sensor may also be estimated by analytically optimizing input sensor signals to accurately correct for changes in sensitivity, run-in time, glucose current dips, and other variable sensor wear effects. Correction actors, fusion algorithms, EIS, and advanced ASICs may be used to implement the foregoing, thereby achieving the goal of improved accuracy and reliability without the need for blood-glucose calibration, and providing a calibration-free, or near calibration-free, sensor.

A method of preparing a working electrode on a sensor substrate is disclosed. A sensor substrate is provided and has a first side with at least one conductive trace. A layer of sensing material is applied onto the first side and covers at least a portion of the at least one conductive trace. The sensing material is irradiated with a laser beam to partially remove the layer of the sensing material while preserving a portion of the sensing material covering the at least one conductive trace, resulting in a working electrode on the sensor substrate. A membrane layer is applied that at least partially covers the working electrode. The membrane layer includes a cross-linker that cross-links at least a part of the sensing material. A diffusion step is performed during which the cross-linker in the membrane layer at least partially diffuses into the sensing material.

A system is provided for monitoring glucose in a host, including a continuous glucose sensor that produces a data stream indicative of a host's glucose concentration and an integrated receiver that receives the data stream from the continuous glucose sensor and calibrates the data stream using a single point glucose monitor that is integral with the integrated receiver. The integrated receiver obtains a glucose value from the single point glucose monitor, calibrates the sensor data stream received from the continuous glucose sensor, and displays one or both of the single point glucose measurement values and the calibrated continuous glucose sensor values on the user interface.

Devices, systems, and methods are provided herein for delivering medication (e.g., insulin) via a wearable pump having a patch-style form factor for adhesion to a user's body.
