Real-Time Glucose Estimation Algorithm for Continuous Glucose Monitoring Using Autoregressive Models

摘要

BackgroundContinuous glucose monitors (CGMs) present a problem of lack of accuracy, especially in the lower range, sometimes leading to missed or false hypoglycemia. A new algorithm is presented here aimed at improving the measurement accuracy and hypoglycemia detection. Its core is the estimation of blood glucose (BG) in real time (RT) from CGM intensity readings using autoregressive (AR) models.
