Abstract

An integrated circuit includes circuitry to control a process. The process includes adjusting fuzzy-logic control parameters based on received and retrieved blood glucose-related data, predicting blood glucose levels based on the received blood-glucose-related data, and generating control signals to control dispensing of insulin based on the received blood glucose-related data and the fuzzy-logic control parameters. The process may include predicting blood glucose levels based on the retrieved blood glucose-related data. The process may include transitioning between a post-meal correction protocol and a fasting protocol. The process may include transitioning from a post-meal correction protocol to a fasting protocol when a fasting criteria is satisfied.

Claims (15)

1. An integrated circuit, comprising:

one or more inputs; and

processing circuity, which, in operation,

adjusts fuzzy-logic control parameters based on received and retrieved blood glucose-related data;

predicts blood glucose levels based on the received blood-glucose-related data; and

generates control signals to control dispensing of insulin based on the received blood glucose-related data and the fuzzy-logic control parameters.

2. The integrated circuit of claim 1 wherein the processing circuitry, in operation, predicts blood glucose levels based on the retrieved blood glucose-related data.

3. The integrated circuit of claim 1 wherein the processing circuitry, in operation, selectively transitions between a post-meal correction protocol and a fasting protocol.

4. The integrated circuit of claim 1 wherein the processing circuitry, in operation transitions from a post-meal correction protocol to a fasting protocol when a fasting criteria is satisfied.

5. The integrated circuit of claim 1 wherein the processing circuitry, in operation, transitions from a fasting protocol to a post-meal correction protocol when a prandial event is detected.

6. The integrated circuit of claim 1 wherein the processing circuitry, in operation, transitions from a fasting protocol to a user-input protocol when a prandial event is detected.

7. The integrated circuit of claim 1 wherein the fuzzy-logic control parameters comprise fuzzy-logic multipliers.

8. The integrated circuit of claim 1 wherein the predicting blood glucose levels comprises predicting a subsequent blood glucose level based on a previously predicted blood glucose level.

9. The integrated circuit of claim 1 wherein the processing circuitry, in operation, implements at least one of a neural network and a dynamic Bayesian network.

10. The integrated circuit of claim 1 wherein the processing circuitry comprises a memory storing instructions, and the integrated circuit, in operation, executes the instructions.
