New video highlights MuSiC4Diabetes' breakthrough device
We are thrilled to announce the release of our new video explaining the stakes, mission and impact of the MuSiC4Diabetes project! This 2 minute-long clip walks the viewer through the life of Kate, a young woman living with diabetes and facing the psychological impact of diabetes and the practical challenges that her treatment implies. The video further introduces the viewer to the device in development within the MuSiC4Diabetes project, that combines breakthrough technologies that significantly improve the quality of life of persons living with diabetes:
- Comprehensive sensing technologies via multi-metabolite captor
- Precise injection pumping systems for controlled, targeted delivery
- Smart algorithmic processes to ensure maximum precision and safety via control mechanisms
Multi-Metabolite Captor for Real-Time Monitoring
The device will feature a multi-metabolite captor. Unlike conventional glucose monitors that track only blood sugar, this sensor will be designed to detect a range of metabolites. By continuously monitoring glucose, lactate, and ketone bodies, the device offers a holistic understanding of metabolic status.
Precision Injection Pumping System for Targeted Delivery
Complementing the sensing technologies is the precise injection pump, which enables a controlled, targeted delivery of insulin. This system ensures that the right dose is administered at the right time. The fine-tuned pumping system will be designed to adapt dynamically to the changing needs of the individual throughout the day and addresses the challenges of insulin delivery with a high level of precision.
Smart Algorithmic Control Mechanisms for Maximum Safety
Finally, the device will integrate smart algorithmic mechanisms that will enhance safety and efficiency. These control mechanisms will analyse the continuous flow of data from the multi-metabolite captor, adjusting insulin delivery in real-time. In addition, the device will integrate smart control mechanisms that significatnly improve its safety.
This fusion of advanced components will provide an unparalleled treatment accuracy, safety and efficiency, therefore setting a new standard for diabetes care.
