Abstract

Insulin therapy automation is an actual research line in the glycemic control of diabetes mellitus type 1 patients. Development of closed-loop systems and methods will allow blood glucose maintaining in the physiological range. The work proposes the personalized insulin therapy system considered as a closed-loop control system based on feedback and external disturbances compensation principles. Automatic feedback-based glycemic control includes proportional reg-ulation of basal insulin infusion rate in relation to optimized thresholds inside the target range. To achieve bidirectional glycemic regulation the author proposes model predictive control for calculation of not only optimal profile of bolus infusion but also recommended corrective dose of carbohydrates. Besides, the comparative analysis of trends in measured and predicted profiles of blood glucose allows detecting and compensation of its unpredicted deviations. In silico testing of developed algorithms on nine virtual adults for 72 hours shows an ability for glucose maintaining in the target range for whole system operation time.
