  2. 2. Compensation to Automate an External Glucose Level Management System for Diabetes Type 1 : Artificial Pancreas

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskaper

    Author : Sebastian Trygg; [2016]
    Keywords : Artificial pancreas CGM glucose diabetes type 1;

    Abstract : This report takes an approach of laying the first steps to create an artificial pancreassystem as treatment for type 1 diabetes. This includes a thoroughly performedanalysis of the most intrusive physical factors, such as hormonal activity, time offset,errors of measurement and metabolism. Such factors raise a need forcompensation. READ MORE

    Keywords : MPC; Invariant sets; Artificial Pancreas; Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with Model Predictive Control (MPC) for artificial pancreas for Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus patients. A control strategy exploiting invariant sets in MPC for blood glucose level control is developed, to the authors knowledge for the first time. READ MORE

  4. 4. Novel Insulin Delivery Profiles for Mixed Meals in Basal-Bolus and Closed-Loop Artificial Pancreas Therapy for Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för reglerteknik

    Author : Asavari Srinivasan; [2013]
    Keywords : type 1 diabetes; insulin pump therapy; insulin dosage; artificial pancreas; particle swarm optimization; biomedical control; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Traditional basal-bolus and closed-loop artificial pancreas therapy for type 1 diabetes mellitus were studied in the present work and novel insulin delivery profiles have been identified. Type 1 diabetes is a chronic condition resulting from autoimmune destruction of the pancreatic insulin producing β-cells. READ MORE
