Abstract

A device for determining a glucose level of a patient includes a set of electrodes comprising a first working electrode, a second working electrode, a counter electrode, and a reference electrode. The reference electrode is electrically coupled to the counter electrode. The device further includes a memory and one or more processors implemented in circuitry and in communication with the memory. The one or more processors configured to determine a sensor signal based on current flowing between the first working electrode and the counter electrode and determine an open circuit potential (OCP) signal based on a voltage across the second working electrode and the reference electrode. The one or more processors are further configured to determine the glucose level of the patient based on the sensor signal and the OCP signal and output an indication of the glucose level.
