I am interested to learn more about microdialysis in newborns, for monitoring of subcutaneous glucose monitoring.

We have an idea for a research project and would need a good way to monitor glucose homeostasis contineously. Microdialysis would be an option(?).

 

This article here catches well what we want to learn more about: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11694701

 

If you have experience from technologies (commercially available or DIY) and the use if such technologies, please share!

Hi Stefan,

Is it really microdialysis you are looking for or is it more the continues glucose monitoring?

As there is a growing number of papers publishing on the use of continues glucose monitoring (CGMS) in infants this could be a good alternative when glucose monitoring is your focus.

I personally have worked (and have done research) with the Medtronic VEO.

If you have questions about CGMS feel free to contact me.

Sounds like a good idea!
