ANALYTE MONITORING SYSTEM

摘要

An analyte monitoring system, which can be used to monitor blood sugar, is provided with a sensor which detects a plurality of blood sugar levels in blood on the basis of a sampling interval, a meal data setting unit which sets information based on meal contents, and a sampling interval setting unit which sets the sampling interval of the sensor using the information based on meal contents set by the meal data setting unit. By predicting a fluctuation curve of the blood sugar level after a meal by information based on meal contents to thereby change the sampling interval, a fluctuation state of the blood sugar level can be efficiently monitored.

1. An analyte monitoring system comprising:
a sensor positionable on a living body of a user and configured to measure a concentration of an analyte in the living body of the user at a sampling interval; a database storage in which is stored a plurality of different sampling interval patterns, each sampling interval pattern identifying a different combination of sampling intervals of different duration at which the concentration of the analyte is measured; meal data setting means for setting information identifying contents of a meal consumed by the user; sampling interval setting means which uses the information identifying the contents of the meal consumed by the user for setting one of the sampling interval patterns stored in the database storage; and the sensor measuring the concentration of the analyte at the sampling intervals identified by the sampling interval pattern set by the sampling interval setting means.
