Advanced analyte sensor calibration and error detection
First Claim
1. A method of calibrating at least one sensor data point from a transcutaneous glucose sensor, the method comprising:
- using a calibration code associated with the transcutaneous glucose sensor, wherein the calibration code is based at least in part on a priori information obtained by performing measurements of at least one sensor characteristic of the transcutaneous glucose sensor during or after manufacturing the transcutaneous glucose sensor but before implantation of the transcutaneous glucose sensor in a host at the initiation of a sensor session, wherein the measured at least one sensor characteristic is associated with a thickness of a membrane system disposed on the transcutaneous glucose sensor, wherein the membrane system comprises an enzyme, wherein the a priori information accounts for a sensor sensitivity characteristic determined or assigned to the transcutaneous glucose sensor;
receiving the at least one sensor data point from the transcutaneous glucose sensor;
receiving one or more real-time inputs that influence calibration of the transcutaneous glucose sensor;
converting, in real-time, at least one sensor data point to an estimated glucose value, based at least in part on the calibration code and the real-time inputs.

Abstract
Systems and methods for processing sensor data and self-calibration are provided. In some embodiments, systems and methods are provided which are capable of calibrating a continuous analyte sensor based on an initial sensitivity, and then continuously performing self-calibration without using, or with reduced use of, reference measurements. In certain embodiments, a sensitivity of the analyte sensor is determined by applying an estimative algorithm that is a function of certain parameters. Also described herein are systems and methods for determining a property of an analyte sensor using a stimulus signal. The sensor property can be used to compensate sensor data for sensitivity drift, or determine another property associated with the sensor, such as temperature, sensor membrane damage, moisture ingress in sensor electronics, and scaling factors.
