Monitoring device and monitoring method
First Claim
1. A monitoring method by which a monitoring device comprising an electrochemical sensor including a sensor unit, for detecting a subject substance in a body fluid, disposed in the way of being embedded subcutaneously, measures numerical value information on the subject substance, said method comprising:
- detecting an ambient temperature with a temperature control unit, said ambient temperature being the temperature ambient to the sensor, and wherein the temperature control unit comprises a temperature sensor and a temperature adjusting element;
andadjusting the ambient temperature with the temperature adjusting element, so as to reach a target setting temperature in the body fluid when measuring the subject substance whereby the temperature control unit controls the operation state of said temperature adjusting element on the basis of the temperature measured by said temperature sensor.

Abstract
A monitoring device which measures numerical value information on a subject substance in a body fluid has an electrochemical sensor including a sensor unit for detecting the subject substance which is used in the way of being embedded subcutaneously and generating an electric signal correlating to the numerical value information on the subject substance, and a temperature control unit which adjusts the detected ambient temperature as a temperature ambient to a sensor unit when detecting the subject substance so as to reach a target setting temperature when measuring the subject substance.
