IMO-PSO FO-PID controller based insulin infusion system for type 1 diabetes patients during post-operation condition

Abstract

Blood Glucose level controls of type 1 diabetic patients (T1D) in post operative conditions are extremely important. This work proposes controllers for management and control of insulin injections to T1D in post operative care. Proposed work investigated IMO-PSO FO-PID controller as a novel approach to improve insulin delivery. The controller utilizes optimization algorithms to regulate insulin levels in real time. Particle swarm optimization (PSO) based tuning is already a proven method in insulin regulation and multiobjective PSO is well suited when combined with FO-PID which is tested. Additionally, system aims to achieve lower insulin levels, as high insulin levels have been linked to increase risks of complications for T1D patients. Results showed that IMO-PSO FO-PID controller is effective in improving glucose control, with patients experiencing fewer fluctuations and instances of hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia. Simulation results show that the use of the controller is very useful in managing blood glucose levels over a longer period and corresponding insulin infusion levels are also controlled well, which is much less than the previously reported control methodologies. This paper highlights potential benefits of using this controller in managing T1D and improving glucose control.
