The present disclosure relates to a method for calculating the calibration sensitivity of a sensor for insertion into the body and, more particularly, to a method for calculating calibration sensitivity, wherein a biometric value of a user can be accurately calibrated by overcoming an error in a biometric value measured through a sensor for insertion into the body, or an error in a reference biometric value measured through a biometric information measurement device, by storing past sensitivities and using at least one of the past sensitivities and a currently calculated sensitivity to calculate a calibration sensitivity of the sensor for insertion into the body, and the calibration sensitivity of the sensor for insertion into the body can be accurately calculated, even if there is an error in the reference biometric value or the reference biometric value temporarily deviates from the range of normal biometric values of the user, by determining whether the reference biometric value used to calculate the calibration sensitivity is within an allowable range.

The present invention relates to a sensor applicator assembly for a continuous glucose monitoring system and provides a sensor applicator assembly for a continuous glucose monitoring system, which is manufactured with a sensor module assembled inside an applicator, thereby minimizing additional work by a user for attaching the sensor module to the body and allowing the sensor module to be attached to the body simply by operating the applicator, and thus can be used more conveniently. A battery is built in the sensor module and a separate transmitter is connected to the sensor module so as to receive power supply from the sensor module and be continuously used semi-permanently, thereby making the assembly economical. The sensor module and the applicator are used as disposables, thereby allowing accurate and safe use and convenient maintenance.
