Tiny tech: can a skin sensor better protect newborns from hidden blood sugar drops?

NCT ID NCT07375615

Summary

This study tested whether a small, wearable glucose sensor is practical and effective for monitoring blood sugar in newborns at risk of low levels. Researchers placed the sensor on 25 babies' thighs shortly after birth and compared its readings to standard blood tests for up to 72 hours. The goal was to see if the sensor could detect dangerous drops in blood sugar faster and more easily than traditional methods.
