A study of using fuzzy logic based system for adaptation of precise insulin dosage for type II diabetes patients

Abstract

The prime purpose of this study is to design a precise daily insulin dosage for type II diabetes patients, who are on insulin regimen currently. This more precise and accurate dose is designed with the help of fuzzy based system. The dose is adjusted by keeping several factors such as postprandial glucose level and duration of taking insulin are being considered. To conduct this study 10 type II diabetes patients, undergoing insulin treatment, were randomly selected and the information was collected. The data were utilized to develop rules for a fuzzy based system in MATLAB. This system assists to generate an output that is required to compare with the prescribed doses of insulin by the physicians. This method calculates the total daily insulin dose depending on each individual factor and the generated output are more likely to provide better control over patient’s blood glucose level.
