D-CARE: A Non-invasive Blood Glucose Measuring Technique for Monitoring Diabetes Patients

Abstract

Diabetes is a lethal disease in the world now a days as we all know. One out of eleven adults are now victim of this disease as per WHO. The common two types of diabetes are Type-1 and Type-2 diabetes. It's a must for a diabetes patient to maintain the blood glucose leveL It does not mean that the patient must not consume any kind of sugar. Human body needs glucose to work That's why a well-planned diet is required to control the disease. Here comes two terms related to blood glucose level; Hyperglycemia and Hypoglycemia. Hyperglycemia mean chronically high blood glucose levels and Hypoglycemia is the vice-versa of Hyperglycemia. Hyperglycemia can cause Stroke, Heart attack or Congestive Heart Failure, Kidney disease or even Nerve damage whereas Hypoglycemia can cause Unconsciousness, Severe confusion and disorientation, Seizures or even Death As there is no cure for this disease, constant monitoring of the blood glucose level has become the most effective solution for this disease. But the invasive method to measure blood glucose level might cause infection and its painful too. That's why non-invasive method has become the most reliable technique to measure blood glucose level and for constant monitoring of the patient.
