Abstract
Disclosed herein are systems and methods for a continuous analyte sensor, such as a continuous glucose sensor. One such system utilizes first and second working electrodes to measure additional analyte or non-analyte related signal. Such measurements may provide a background and/or sensitivity measurement(s) for use in processing sensor data and may be used to trigger events such as digital filtering of data or suspending display of data.

17. An implantable continuous glucose sensor comprising:
-
a first conductive layer comprising a first electrode; a first insulative layer covering at least a portion of the first conductive layer; and a second conductive layer covering at least a portion of the first insulative layer, wherein the second conductive layer comprises a second electrode; a second insulative layer covering at least a portion of the second conductive layer; a third conductive layer covering at least a portion of the second insulative layer, wherein the third conductive layer comprises a third electrode; wherein the first electrode, the second electrode, and the third electrode are staggered along a longitudinal axis defined by the first conductive layer such that the second electrode extends vertically beyond the first electrode and the third electrode extends vertically beyond the second electrode. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24)
