A Closed Loop Implantable Artificial Pancreas Using Thin Film
To prevent the onset of serious pathologies diabetics must maintain extremely close control over their glucose levels which requires as many as eight blood samplings a day, an onerous task. A long sought solution is to have glucose monitored by an implantable sensor which is coupled to an implanted insulin pump which would deliver insulin in response to the monitor signal. The paper describes t...
متن کاملProgress in development of an artificial pancreas.
This issue of Journal of Diabetes Science and Technology contains a collection of 12 original articles describing the latest advances in the development of algorithms for controlling insulin delivery in an artificial pancreas. Algorithms presented in this issue are affected by numerous quantifiable factors, including insulin pharmaco-kinetics, timing of meal carbohydrate appearance, meal size, ...
متن کاملDesign and Evaluation of a Robust PID Controller for a Fully Implantable Artificial Pancreas
Treatment of type 1 diabetes mellitus could be greatly improved by applying a closed-loop control strategy to insulin delivery, also known as an artificial pancreas (AP). In this work, we outline the design of a fully implantable AP using intraperitoneal (IP) insulin delivery and glucose sensing. The design process utilizes the rapid glucose sensing and insulin action offered by the IP space to...
متن کاملTelemedical Artificial Pancreas
DEBATE — The integration of continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) (insulin pump therapy) and continuous interstitial glucose monitoring (CGM) appears to be an excellent solution for obtaining the desirable metabolic control for most insulin-treated subjects (1– 4). Several studies have suggested that CGM with readings in real-time (CGMRT) further improves blood glucose control (5–9). ...
متن کاملDevelopment of Artificial Pancreas
Diabetic patients who have an abnormal blood glucose level suffer from acute effects of hypoglycemia and long term effects of hyperglycemia which include disorders of eyes, kidneys and nerves. This paper introduces the concept of an artificial pancreas which is a revolutionary device for the diabetic population. The artificial pancreas (AP), known as closed-loop control of blood glucose in diab...
