This book tackles the problem of overshoot and undershoot in blood
glucose levels caused by delay in the effects of carbohydrate
consumption and insulin administration. The ideas presented here
will be very important in maintaining the welfare of
insulin-dependent diabetics and avoiding the damaging effects of
unpredicted swings in blood glucose - accurate prediction enables
the implementation of counter-measures. The glucose prediction
algorithms described are also a key and critical ingredient of
automated insulin delivery systems, the so-called "artificial
pancreas". The authors address the topic of blood-glucose
prediction from medical, scientific and technological points of
view. Simulation studies are utilized for complementary analysis
but the primary focus of this book is on real applications, using
clinical data from diabetic subjects. The text details the current
state of the art by surveying prediction algorithms, and then moves
beyond it with the most recent advances in data-based modeling of
glucose metabolism. The topic of performance evaluation is
discussed and the relationship of clinical and technological needs
and goals examined with regard to their implications for medical
devices employing prediction algorithms. Practical and theoretical
questions associated with such devices and their solutions are
highlighted. This book shows researchers interested in biomedical
device technology and control researchers working with predictive
algorithms how incorporation of predictive algorithms into the next
generation of portable glucose measurement can make treatment of
diabetes safer and more efficient.
