What is it about?

This research is done to study behaviours of variables in Hovorka model for Type 1 diabetes and to simulate the Hovorka equations using gPROMS.

Why is it important?

gPROMS software is used due to its speciality in real-time dynamic simulation, fast calculation in complex mathematical equations and capable to adapt multi-parametric programming and Model Predictive Control (MPC). The study is conducted using simulation software based on previous studies experimental data; focusing on the algorithm of the controller. The results illustrate the most active parameter in the model is the administration (bolus & infusion) of insulin.

Perspectives

This study attempts to carry out in-silico works so as to simulate the behaviour of Hovorka model equations in controlling the blood glucose level for type 1 diabetes,
