1. A method for evaluating a change in a sensitivity of an implanted analyte sensor over a predetermined time period, comprising:
- receiving sensor data from an analyte sensor implanted in a host, wherein the implanted sensor is configured to generate sensor data, wherein the sensor data comprises one or more sensor analyte values measured in a biological sample of a host;
intermittently calculating a sensitivity of the analyte sensor; and
evaluating, using an electronic device, a change in sensitivity by evaluating a plurality of time-spaced sensitivity calculations over a predetermined time period, wherein evaluating a change in sensitivity is based at least in part on using a priori sensitivity information throughout a sensor session, wherein the plurality of time spaced sensitivity calculations are not based on a blood-glucose measurement.
