👉 Insulin computing, also known as closed-loop or artificial pancreas systems, is an advanced technology designed to automate blood glucose management for individuals with diabetes. It integrates continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) sensors, insulin pumps, and sophisticated algorithms to mimic the natural insulin regulation process of a healthy pancreas. The system continuously tracks glucose levels in real-time, using data from the CGM to predict and adjust insulin delivery. When blood sugar levels rise above a predetermined threshold, the system automatically administers the appropriate amount of insulin through the pump to maintain glucose within a target range. Conversely, if blood sugar levels drop too low, the system can either delay or reduce insulin delivery to prevent hypoglycemia. This automated and adaptive approach significantly reduces the burden of manual monitoring and insulin administration, improving glucose control and quality of life for diabetic patients.
