AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

Enables non-invasive, pain-free monitoring of blood glucose levels by detecting changes in electrical potential and impedance, providing accurate glucose level measurements without drawing blood, thus improving patient comfort and early disease detection.

Problems solved by technology

Today, there are sophisticated electronic devices which are used to determine blood glucose levels; however, these devices still use invasive techniques to draw a sample of blood from the patient.
However such techniques are invasive, inconvenient, and sometimes painful.

Abstract

Disclosed are systems and methods of determining the amount of a substance in a living organism. In one embodiment, the method comprises: applying an electrical signature signal to the living organism, wherein the electrical signature signal corresponds to a predetermined amount of the substance; measuring the response of the living organism to the applied signature signal; and determining whether an elevated response has resulted from applying the electrical signature signal, if so, then determining the amount of the substance in the living organism from the predetermined amount of the substance.
