Monitoring blood sugar levels has become the most difficult thing. The importance of blood sugar monitoring is to let patients know their blood sugar level in a short time, as a reference for diet, exercise and drug adjustment, which is helpful to prevent complications of hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia. After all, high or low impact will endanger life safety. Generally speaking, the ideal value of blood sugar control is
It is best to take 70- 140mg/dl on an empty stomach and 80- 180mg/dl 2 hours after meals. Usually it will be tested four times a day (on an empty stomach, before meals, after meals or before going to bed), and it will be very painful to draw blood every time, not to mention four times a day. If you need to control your blood sugar by injecting insulin again,
Painless blood sugar detection and tracking related inventions Because of the high prevalence rate and the fact that blood pricking monitoring is really a burden for patients, many people rolled up their sleeves and invented a painless way to detect. Let's see what methods have been invented.
Zhang Wen, a Chinese girl of 17 years old, who is currently studying in grade 12 in Jericho High School in Long Island, new york, made a simple instrument to detect the blood sugar index in saliva. This invention was shortlisted in the semi-finals of Regeneron's scientific talent search in 20 18. She conceived the principle of saliva power generation as the basis of her invention. With the idea of painless and non-invasive, she has done countless experiments. With the cooperation of laboratory professor and colleague Qi Xin, she finally succeeded in making a small instrument model with an accuracy rate of 99% and a very low price.
Diabetic patients don't need injections anymore! Measuring blood sugar with tattoo stickers, saying goodbye to pain, was developed by the nano-engineering laboratory of the University of California. By sticking a temporary tattoo sticker on the arm, it can estimate the blood sugar concentration in the skin and send the result to the doctor and store it in the cloud.
Two students designed a health bracelet: Lin, who studied in the Department of Industrial Design of National Taipei University of Technology, and Lin, who studied in the Institute of Business Design of Taiwan Province University of Science and Technology, both expected to let diabetic friends control their blood sugar painlessly, so they designed a circulating life health bracelet. They combine a blood sugar test chip and a microneedle insulin patch into a wearable device to help patients easily control their blood sugar and avoid the pain of injection.
Diabetes is tracked regularly, the condition is stable, and the accuracy of painless blood glucose meter is gradually catching up with invasive equipment. An Israeli medical equipment manufacturer has introduced a noninvasive and painless blood glucose meter, which has been certified by the European Union, Brazil and China, and will be approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) this year. This instrument can diagnose the blood sugar level only by observing the color change of the patient's finger blood. This is because the color of blood changes with the rise and fall of glucose in the body, so when an emergency occurs, the data can be interpreted without acupuncture.
