Patent Summary
An analyte monitoring system that enables continuous glucose monitoring using a sensor connector to attach an analyte sensor to an electronics unit. The system includes a single-sided or double-sided analyte sensor with electrodes on one or both sides of a substrate, and a sensor connector that physically and electrically connects the sensor to the electronics unit. The sensor connector can be a rivet or other conductive material that connects the electrodes on one side of the sensor to the electronics unit, or a conductive rivet that connects electrodes on both sides of the sensor. The system enables continuous glucose monitoring by maintaining a stable connection between the sensor and electronics unit, and can be used with both in vivo and in vitro glucose monitoring applications.
