Single-Port Insulin Infusion for Improved Diabetes Management (SPIDIMAN)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2012, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2017,
Existing therapeutic devices for diabetic patients suffer from bulky size, inaccurate measurements and the difficulties of handling two body interfaces. Suboptimal control of blood glucose levels in type 1 or type 2 diabetes mellitus patients results in periods of hypo- and hyperglycaemia leading to severe and life-threatening complications. Exploiting a novel glucose sensor technology, SPIDIMAN a ...

A Portable bihormonal Closed Loop for Diabetes (PCDIAB)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2012, Date de fin: 31 mai 2016,
The aim of PCDIAB is to build and evaluate a bihormonal (insulin and glucagon) artificial pancreas (AP) with automated closed loop glycaemic control for insulin treated patients with diabetes. This will be a breakthrough in diabetes management. We will miniaturize our current prototype consisting of well-established continuous glucose monitors, an insulin pump and a glucagonpump. The housing will ...

Bringing the artificial pancreas home (AP@home)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2010, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2014,
Description
In order to improve treatment of diabetes patients at home, the main goal of AP@Home is to build and evaluate an artificial pancreas (AP). The AP will allow automated glucose control: It monitors your blood glucose (sugar) levels and a software algorithm calculates how much insulin to deliver at any time via a built-in insulin in ...

Clinical Application for Metabolic Profiling (EU-CLAMP)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2010, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2012,
"Europe faces a diabetes epidemic. More than 55 million people in Europe are currently diagnosed with diabetes and with an estimated 20% increase by 2030, the disease is certain to stay one of the most challenging health problems this century. Especially as diabetes no longer is a disease exclusively for adults, but affects children, young people and adults of all ages. Despite the high prevalence ...

Development of a non-invasive hypoglycaemia sensor for diabetes patients (HYPOSENS)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2008, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2010,
"Blood glucose monitoring is important in the care of diabetes mellitus and is presently accomplished via a “finger-stick” in which a lancet is used to prick the finger and withdraw a small amount of blood for testing. The problem with the existing “finger-stick”-devices is that blood sampling is painful, it increases the risk for infections and the test is discontinuous. A method for measuring t ...
