IoT Based Mobile Medical Application for Smart Insulin Regulation

Glucose monitoring technology has been used by diabetic patients to monitor their blood glucose level for the past three decades. This paper reviews the fundamental techniques of blood glucose detection and smart insulin regulation. The most common and widely used technique is the invasive technique that requires users to prick their finger to draw the blood. However, recently a lot of new technologies have been developed for non-invasive technique to monitor the blood glucose level and study in this area is growing rapidly. Among all, the optical and transdermal approach are the two most potential sensing modalities for non-invasive glucose monitoring that choose the very good prospect. The blood glucose level of a human can be measured by passing IR radiation. The glucose concentration in blood depends on the intensity of the wavelength specific to the radiation. The detected blood glucose level is communicated into the smart phone through the wireless channel and the smart phone control the safety critical devices such as insulin infusion pump through IOT based Mobile Medical Applications (MMAs).
