METHOD FOR DETECTING ANALYTE IN A BODILY FLUID, AND DRESSING FOR IMPLEMENTING SUCH A METHOD

摘要

The invention relates to a method for detecting an analyte in a bodily fluid (2) comprising placing a detector (6) in contact with at least one metabolite from the metabolism or breakdown of the analyte. Placing the detector (6) in contact with the metabolite produces an optically detectable signal. The detection method comprises detecting the metabolite only in gas form, said gas-form metabolite coming from the evaporation of at least part of said metabolite. The detection is also carried out without contact between the bodily fluid (2) and the detector (6). A dressing (1) for implementing the detection method is also described.
