1. A method for measuring an analyte in a host, comprising:
- exposing a continuous analyte detection system to a sample, wherein the continuous analyte detection system comprises a continuous analyte sensor configured for contact with a sample from a circulatory system of a host in vivo and configured to generate a first signal associated with a test analyte and a second signal associated with a reference analyte, and a reference sensor configured to generate a reference signal associated with the reference analyte;
receiving the first signal, the second signal, and the reference signal;
calculating a calibration factor associated with a sensitivity of the continuous analyte sensor; and
calibrating the first signal, wherein calibrating comprises using the calibration factor.
