Innovation in Medical Devices – Embedded Blood Glucose Meter in Smartphones

This whitepaper discusses about a glucose meter embedded in smartphones for monitoring the blood glucose level of the user, where it acts as a user-friendly device for the patient. SEGD (Smartphone embedded glucose device) represents the patient’s real-time glucose monitoring system. The user takes a glucose test through the smartphone using test strips and the result of the glucose measurement is displayed with the corresponding data. The generated BGM in the SEGD device shall dynamically be sent to the doctor’s phone and doctor can send back the necessary prescriptions after reviewing the complete history of that patient.
