With the rapid development of science and technology today, the diagnosis and treatment technology of our diabetic friends has gradually entered the “smart and non-innovative era”.
Three kinds of non-invasive blood glucose meters
A sugar friend performs a standard blood glucose test 7 times a day, and needs to prick his finger more than 2,500 times a year. Multi-brand non-invasive blood glucose meters are on the market, no longer need to bear the pain of sticking fingertips, making blood sugar measurement as simple and non-invasive as measuring body temperature.
1. U sugar non-invasive blood glucose meter
Marketing time: 2014
Measurement method: Convert the collected signal into digital signal by converting the sensor probe, and visualize the calculation result on the display Demonstrate it. This is a comprehensive detection of human hemoglobin, blood oxygen, body temperature and pulse rate derived from a single blood glucose concentration detection.
Accuracy: The comparison between the blood glucose value measured by the non-invasive blood glucose meter prototype and the blood glucose value detected by the clinical biochemical test proves that the method is accurate and feasible.
2. Abbott Noninvasive Blood Glucose Meter
Marketing time: 2017
Features : Small size, it is the smallest wearable blood glucose monitoring device at present.
Measurement method: Attached to the back of the upper arm, the Free Style Libre FGM is a blood glucose monitoring system that attaches a small sensor to the arm and passes it through A “microneedle” (5 mm long and 0.4 mm wide) to measure blood glucose levels is inserted under the skin and secured with an adhesive pad.
Accuracy: No finger blood correction required and sufficient accuracy is maintained.
Suitable for: For adults 18 and older.
3. Tangwuji non-invasive blood glucose meter
Marketing time: 2014
Features:Three detection principles are used at the same time to improve measurement accuracy. Including: Ultrasound, Electrical, Thermal.
Measurement method: Tangwuji includes a main unit and a sensor ear clip. When using it, you only need to clip the ear clip on the earlobe, and the detection will be done immediately. It starts automatically. After 1 minute, it automatically broadcasts the test results by voice, enters the user database, draws the blood sugar curve, and automatically calculates the glycosylated hemoglobin.
Accuracy: The detector adopts ultrasonic, electrical and thermal principles to improve the detection accuracy.
Suitable for: It can be used for blood glucose testing in patients with type 1 or 2 diabetes, gestational diabetes, pre-diabetic state, and impaired glucose tolerance.
2 types of insulin needle-free syringes
Insulin needle-free syringes (also known as insulin needle-free injection systems) consist of a pusher, a cartridge, and a dispensing interface composition. The pusher is reusable, and the drug tube and drug taking interface are single-use. The needle-free syringe is specially designed for diabetic patients to inject insulin. The needle-free syringe has no needle. The high pressure is generated by the pressure device in the syringe, and the liquid medicine is pushed out from the small hole at the top of the medicine tube at the front end of the syringe, and the medicine liquid forms a very fine liquid The column is instantly injected into the human body. Now there are needle-free syringes in China, and Peking Union Medical College Hospital has begun to use them and the effect is very good.
At present, there are two kinds of insulin needle-free syringes certified by the country. The second is Fast Shure. Several more products have been approved.
