| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
According to a statement issued by International Diabetes Federation, diabetes population in 2015 runs up to 415 million people and Japan has diabetes powers ranked 9th in the world. In a diabetic patient blood glucose (BGL) measurement, most desirably non-invasive method without blood sampling, is needed to control BGL level. Unfortunately such practical non-invasive method has not yet been developed up to now.
We have previously developed a novel non-invasive BGL measurement using a finger called “pulse glucometry” and evaluated its validity on an experimental basis. To realize technical practicability of this method, it is essential to develop a new finger-photoplethysmography (PPG) in a wavelength region with BGL absorption having quite high accuracy and sensitivity as well as convenient use. The present study was carried out focusing especially on this PPG development, aiming a basic establishment towards the world’s first non-invasive BGL measurement device for practical use.
