Abstract
Disclosed herein are embodiments of a continuous analyte sensor that can be used to measure glucose or lactate levels in a patient, along with other analytes. In some embodiments, the sensor can be located in the tissue or a blood vessel of a patient, and a probe can be located on the skin of the patient generally adjacent to the sensor. The probe can detect luminescent signals that originate from the sensor and that are dependent on analyte levels.
