A method for long-term and accurate measurement and recording of the blood glucose level in man.
We describe a technique of continuous and long-term withdrawal of venous blood which permits a continuous measurement and recording of the blood glucose level. The preparation and setting up of a special double lumen catheter are detailed. This technique provides very accurate blood glucose time course determination and requires the withdrawal of small amounts of blood.
