Abstract
An automated blood glucose control system, including a processing and control unit capable of predicting, based on a mathematical model, the future trend of the patient's blood glucose G(t), wherein the model takes as inputs: a variable EE(t) representative of the time variation of the patient's energy expenditure; variable IOB(t) representative of the time variation of the patient's quantity of insulin on board; and a variable COB(t) representative of the time variation of the patient's quantity of glucose on board, and wherein the mathematical model is a model of black box type, that is, a non-physiological model only defined by the observation of the effects of input variables EE(t), IOB(t) and COB(t) on output variable G(t), without taking into account the different known physiological mechanisms operating in the patient's body.
