I think they all need to break your skin in order to test. I'm not aware of any continuous monitors that don't need some blood to work. I anyone is I would be interested. Here's one https://provider.dexcom.com/education-research/cgm-education-use/video… Also an interesting article about people hacking together their own artificial pancreas https://medium.com/neodotlife/dana-lewis-open-aps-hack-artificial-panc…

> it's irresponsible for non-medical researchers to not only pursue, but also disseminate, these jailbreaks. A good portion of medical device RnD is related to creating technology that is hard to misuse and result in accidental death, and I just don't see that here. This is simply wrong, both from a user perspective and a general research perspective. Positioning a jailbreak like this as a solution to general vent shortage may be irresponsible if it leads to people trying to treat others instead of relying on doctors, but going beyond that is ignoring the good that's come from work like this. Hacked up and jailbroken insulin pumps have been a thing for years, often to get increased safety over what manufacturers can provide: https://medium.com/neodotlife/dana-lewis-open-aps-hack-artificial-panc… There's also a history of people unlocking and altering settings in CPAP/BiPAP devices in response to data (many providers treat them as set and forget devices and don't bother reviewing logs except for initial patient compliance). Beyond people hacking their own devices, we've seen that security of medical devices wouldn't improve without independent researchers highlighting the flaws and driving them to fix them: https://www.cnbc.com/2018/08/17/security-researchers-say-they-can-hack… and https://www.darkreading.com/vulnerabilities---threats/lethal-dosage-of…
