ABSTRACT:
A system for the measurement of a metabolite in a physiological fluid is disclosed which comprises a catheter which includes an internal metabolite sensor downstream from a semipermeable region where dynamic equilibrium is attained between the external metabolite and a higher concentration of the same metabolite contained in an infusate which is flowed through the catheter. The changing metabolite concentration also can open and close a chemical valve to control the codelivery of a drug through the catheter.
