Description

Intelligent insulin pen
Technical Field
The invention belongs to a household medical appliance, and particularly relates to an intelligent insulin pen.
Background
The diabetic needs to control blood sugar by injecting insulin, generally, before insulin injection, blood sugar test needs to be carried out, and the dosage of the insulin is adjusted according to the concentration of the blood sugar. The existing glucometer adopts a disposable blood sugar test strip, and a patient is discarded after completing a blood sugar test and cannot be used continuously. The price of the domestic blood glucose test paper is generally 1-2 yuan per strip, such as Sannuo, ai Ke, yujun, yicheng and the like, and the price of the imported blood glucose test paper is generally 2-5 yuan per strip, such as Qiangsheng, yapei, ohm Long, bayer, roche and the like. The serious diabetic needs to measure the blood sugar 3-4 times every day, and the disposable blood sugar test paper brings certain economic burden to the diabetic. If a reusable blood glucose detecting sensor could be developed, the economic burden of the patient would be greatly reduced.
Scientific insulin injections should be adjusted according to the blood sugar concentration before meals and the sugar amount eaten by meals, however, due to the limitation of the knowledge level of patients, most patients are injected according to the initial insulin dosage given by doctors, and the dosage is kept unchanged for a period of time. However, since the patients have different blood glucose levels before meals due to their daily exercise, diet, physical condition, and injection of the same amount of insulin, the degree of control of blood glucose after meals varies. To better control blood glucose concentration, pre-meal blood glucose concentrations should be tested before each meal and insulin dosage adjusted appropriately based on current blood glucose concentration to reduce blood glucose excursions. Therefore, the intelligent insulin dosage calculation function is added in the insulin injection pen, the required insulin dosage can be calculated according to the current blood sugar value of the patient, and the blood sugar of the patient can be controlled more stably.
Insulin needs to be refrigerated in a low-temperature environment to keep its activity, and generally can be stored in a refrigerator at home, and needs to be stored with a special refrigerating box when going out. Among the existing products, blood sugar test, insulin refrigeration and insulin injection are three different products, and are inconvenient to use because the existing products need to be carried separately when in use. Therefore, a product which can stably store insulin, measure blood sugar and automatically calculate the insulin dosage is developed, and the life quality of the diabetic patient can be greatly improved.

The protective layer can prevent the loss of the catalytic material while protecting the electrode. When blood sugar is detected, fingertip blood touches the tip of the electrode, the blood enters the micro-groove due to capillary action, and the corresponding voltage is applied to the working electrode to measure the blood sugar value. After the test is finished, the electrode cleaning device can be controlled to flow out a certain amount of electrode cleaning liquid, the electrode is cleaned, and the electrode is dried and stored.
