ciro,

You mean like this:

http://diabetes.niddk.nih.gov/dm/pubs/glucosemonitor/index.htm

All I did to find this was enter "glucose monitoring" into the Google searchbox and it gave me a raft of sites. Could you not have done that?

Mike

There is and it is called a drug pump. It is implanted in the body and using a LED sensor can measure glucose. This then can tell the device to give insulin or not 24/7. They are working on this design because I have seen it first hand. I do not know of any FDA approval of a design but you could Google Medtronic drug pump. They are the largest medical company in the world. I designed Cardiac Pacemakers with St. Jude Medical Inc. the third largest medical company in the world.
