Abstract
A biosensor assembly that measures multiple physical parameters is disclosed. The biosensor assembly includes a first implantable probe and a first skin contacting electrode. Wherein a first physiological parameter is measured between the first implantable probe and the first skin contactable electrode.
Core Innovation
The invention provides a biosensor assembly measuring multiple parameters. The assembly includes a skin contacting surface with a first skin contacting electrode located on a bottom of the biosensor assembly, and a first implantable probe extending away from the skin contacting surface. The first implantable probe is inserted through skin of a subject and enables signaling within subcutaneous tissue using a first working electrode and a second working electrode.
The biosensor assembly is configured to measure a first physiological parameter between the first implantable probe and the first skin contactable electrode. The first physiological parameter is tissue impedance measured between the skin contacting electrode and either the first or the second working electrode within subcutaneous tissue.
Claims Coverage
Only one independent claim is provided (clm-00001). The coverage focuses on a biosensor assembly structure combining a skin contacting electrode and an implantable probe, with tissue impedance as the first physiological parameter measured between the skin electrode and either working electrode of the implantable probe.

A biosensor assembly including a skin contacting surface with a first skin contacting electrode located on a bottom of the biosensor assembly, and a first implantable probe extending away from the skin contacting surface, the first implantable probe inserted through skin of a subject and enabling signaling within subcutaneous tissue with a first working electrode and a second working electrode.
Tissue impedance between skin electrode and either working electrode
The biosensor assembly configured to measure a first physiological parameter as tissue impedance measured between the skin contacting electrode and either the first or the second working electrode of the first implantable probe within subcutaneous tissue.
The provided independent claim defines the key inventive structure and the impedance-based physiological measurement linking the skin contacting electrode to either working electrode of the inserted implantable probe.
