Closed-Loop Control of Blood Glucose [electronic resource] /by Frederick Chee, Tyrone Fernando.

by Chee, Frederick [author.]; Fernando, Tyrone [author.]; SpringerLink (Online service).
Material type: materialTypeLabelBookSeries: Lecture Notes in Control and Information Sciences: 368Publisher: Berlin, Heidelberg : Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2007.Description: XII, 157 p. Also available online. online resource.ISBN: 9783540740315.Subject(s): Engineering | Systems theory | Biomedical engineering | Engineering | Control Engineering | Biomedical Engineering | Systems Theory, ControlOnline resources: Click here to access online
Contents:
Glucose Control: Input and Output -- Glucose Control: Patient Dynamics -- Mathematics of Glucose Control -- Closed-Loop Control Apparatus Example -- Conclusions.
In: Springer eBooksSummary: This book presents the field of closed-loop blood glucose control in a simple manner. This includes the hardware and "software" components that make up the control system. The hardware components involved the different types of glucose sensors available (invasive, minimally-invasive and non-invasive) and the different types of insulin. The software component represents the approaches that translate a given blood glucose reading to an appropriate insulin rate. Some of these approaches applied mathematical sciences to model the underlying system and formulate mathematical solutions. Examples are given on how mathematical models are formulated as well as the control algorithms that stem from mathematical exercises. This book describes from a functional level, the basic physiology of blood glucose regulation during fasting and meal. iT will serve as a useful reference to researches in this area of research to understand the fundamentals involved in blood glucose regulation and to gather most recent advancements in diabetes management.
