SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETERMINING OPTIMAL INSULIN PROFILES

摘要

A system (200) which is designed to determine an optimal insulin infusion profile useful as a postprandial blood glucose control for a patient/meal combination is disclosed. The system comprises: a) an input device configured to receive information about a pre-meal measurement of blood glucose concentration, and size and composition of a meal to be consumed; b) a memory which contains additional information about a pre-meal insulin infusion history, a chosen insulin pattern for the postprandial blood glucose control, and a dynamical minimal model having model parameters which are predetermined for the patient/meal combination; c) a processor programmed to use the received information and the additional information to compute automatically the optimal insulin infusion profile by minimizing an objective function, wherein said minimizing of the objective function results in the optimal insulin infusion profile; and d) a display configured to display the optimal insulin infusion profile. Furthermore, a method for the determination of an optimal insulin infusion profile useful as a postprandial blood glucose control for a patient/meal combination is disclosed.
