NANO GLUCOSE MONITORING DEVICE

DISPOSITIF NANOTECHNOLOGIQUE DE MESURE DE LA GLYCEMIE

English Abstract

I have recognized the importance of self-monitoring of blood glucose
concentration for prevention
of complications in patients with diabetes. I have created an idea of a nano
product that will
improve the process of monitoring blood glucose levels in patients with
diabetes without the need to
continuously prick their fingers and taking a sample of blood. My product is
designed as a
wristwatch with a digital screen and works with nanotechnology. A
nanospectrophotometric
analysis releases light through unbreakable glass which is placed in the
backside of the attached
watch to the wrist of human, which identifies the characteristics of cells in
the blood. A nanoscale in
the device uses this information which is provided by nanospectrophotometric
analysis to calculate
and measure the amount and concentration of glucose in the blood and displays
the results through a
digital screen. So, the device continuously works night and day and
automatically releases beeps to
alert diabetics in case of low or high glucose in the blood.

Claims

Claims:

The embodiments of the invention in which an exclusive property or privilege
is claimed are
defined as follows:


1. The Nano blood glucose monitoring device is created for diabetics to
monitor their glucose
levels without pricking their fingers and taking a sample of blood. A
nanospectrophotometric analysis releases light through unbreakable glass which
is placed in
the backside of the attached watch to the wrist of human, which identifies the
characteristics
of cells in the blood. A nanoscale uses this information to calculate and
measure the amount
and concentration of glucose in the blood. Finally, a digital screen displays
the results and
issues beeps in order to alert diabetics in case of low or high glucose in the
blood.


2. A device as defined in claim 1, in which the device is designed as a
wristwatch.

3. A device as defined in claim 1 or claim 2, in which the device consists of
nanospectrophotometric analysis to emit light through unbreakable glass which
is placed in
the backside of the watch to identify the characteristics of cells in the
blood.

4. A device as defined in claim 1 or claim 2, in which the device consists of
a nanoscale that
uses the information which is collected by nanospectrophotometric analysis to
calculate and
measure the amount and concentration of glucose in the blood.

5. A device as defined in claim 1 or claim 2, in which the device consists of
a digital screen to
display the results and issues beeps.

Description

CA 02736357 2011-04-07
Specification:

This invention relates to self-monitoring of blood glucose levels in patients
with diabetes.

It is common that regular blood glucose monitoring devices require samples of
blood to calculate
and measure the amount of glucose level in the blood. Diabetics continuously
prick their fingers to
check their glucose levels at least once a day. This process is painful,
especially for children and
seniors, and because of this, diabetics must pay for strips and other
accessories as well. In addition,
Diabetics could not monitor their sugar and often are exposed to risks because
of the low or high
level of sugar while they are sleeping, playing outdoors, at school or at
work.

I have found that my product would overcome the regular blood glucose
monitoring devices'
disadvantages. My product does not need to have a sample of blood to measure
the amount of
glucose level in the blood so there are no strips and physical pain. Moreover,
it would monitor the
level of glucose of diabetics while they are sleeping, busy, playing outdoors,
at school or at work,
and alert them to react to oncoming highs or lows of sugar by issuing beeps.
It is also waterproof so
it can be worn while swimming, bathing, or showering without worries.

In drawings which illustrate embodiments of the invention, figure 2 shows the
shape of the Nano
Glucose Monitoring Device. Figure 1 shows the components and processes of Nano
Glucose
Monitoring Device as following: Nanospectrophotometric analysis 1 releases
light 2 through
unbreakable glass 3 which is placed in the backside of the attached watch to
the wrist of human 4,
which identifies the characteristics of cells in the blood. A nanoscale 5 in
the device uses this
information which is provided by nanospectrophotometric analysis to calculate
and measure the
amount and concentration of glucose in the blood. Digital screen 6 which
displays the results and
issues beeps 7 in order to alert diabetics in the case of low or high glucose
in the blood.
