N2 - Expert short-term management of diabetes through good
glycaemic control, is necessary to delay or even prevent
serious degenerative complications developing in the long
term, due to consistently high blood glucose levels
(BGLs). Good glycaemic control may be achieved by
predicting a future BGL based on past BGLs and past and
anticipated diet, exercise schedule and insulin regime (the
latter for insulin dependent diabetics). This predicted
BGL may then be used in a computerised management
system to achieve short-term normoglycaemia. This paper
investigates the use of a recurrent artificial neural network
for predicting BGL, and presents preliminary results for
two insulin dependent diabetic females.
