TY  - JOUR
AB  - For decades, diabetes mellitus has been of wide concern with its high global prevalence, resulting in increasing social and financial burdens for individuals, clinical systems and governments. Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) has become a popular alternative to the portable finger-prick glucometers available in the market for the convenience of diabetic patients. Hence, it has attracted much interest in various glucose sensing technologies to develop novel glucose sensors with better performance and longer lifetime, especially non-invasive or minimally invasive glucose sensing. Effort has also been put into finding biocompatible materials for implantable applications to achieve effective in vivo CGM. Here, we review the state-of-the-art researches in the field of CGM. The currently commercially available CGM technologies have been analyzed and a summary is provided of the potential types of recently researched non-invasive glucose monitors. Furthermore, the challenges and advances towards implantable applications have also been introduced and discussed, especially the novel biocompatible hydrogel aimed at minimizing the adverse impact from foreign-body response. In addition, a large variety of promising glucose-sensing technologies under research have been reviewed, from traditional electrochemical-based glucose sensors to novel optical and other electrical glucose sensors. The recent development and achievement of the reviewed glucose sensing technologies are discussed, together with the market analysis in terms of the statistical data for the newly published patents in the related field. Thus, the promising direction for future work in this field could be concluded.
