[0003] Among the existing technologies, most non-invasive blood glucose monitoring technologies monitor blood glucose levels by measuring the temperature of the finger skin or the temperature of the mouth. However, measuring blood glucose levels by measuring the temperature of the finger skin is often easily affected by the external temperature environment and leads to inaccurate measurements. Measuring blood glucose levels by measuring the temperature of the mouth makes the monitoring process cumbersome and requires frequent opening of the mouth to measure the oral temperature, which makes the monitoring sensation not user-friendly.

[0059] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of this application more clear, the following further describes this application in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this application and are not intended to limit this application.

[0061] It should also be noted that, in the description of this application, "several" means more than one, "plurality" means more than two, "greater than," "less than," and "exceed" are understood to exclude the number itself, while "above," "below," and "within" are understood to include the number itself. The use of "first" and "second" in the description is solely for the purpose of distinguishing technical features and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance, implicitly specifying the number of the indicated technical features, or implicitly specifying the order of the indicated technical features.

[0062] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which this application pertains. The terms used herein are for the purpose of describing the embodiments of this application only and are not intended to limit this application.

[0063] In the description of this application, reference to the terms "one embodiment," "some embodiments," "illustrative embodiments," "examples," "specific examples," or "some examples" means that the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described in conjunction with the embodiment or example are included in at least one embodiment or example of this application. In this specification, the schematic representations of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Moreover, the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described can be combined in any appropriate manner in any one or more embodiments or examples.

[0064] First, let’s analyze some of the terms used in this application:

[0065] Non-invasive blood glucose testing technology: Non-invasive blood glucose testing technology refers to a method for measuring blood glucose levels without the need for a puncture or blood sample. Traditional blood glucose testing typically requires a needle or pulse oximeter to collect a drop of blood for measurement. Non-invasive blood glucose testing technology avoids this uncomfortable and painful process, achieving blood glucose monitoring through a non-invasive method.

[0066] Among the existing technologies, most non-invasive blood glucose monitoring technologies monitor blood glucose levels by measuring the temperature of the finger skin or the temperature of the mouth. However, measuring blood glucose levels by measuring the temperature of the finger skin is often easily affected by the external temperature environment and leads to inaccurate measurements. Measuring blood glucose levels by measuring the temperature of the mouth makes the monitoring process cumbersome and requires frequent opening of the mouth to measure the oral temperature, which is not user-friendly in terms of monitoring body sensation.

[0067] Based on this, an embodiment of the present application provides a blood glucose measurement method, which first obtains the target tympanic membrane temperature, and then estimates the target oral temperature through a pre-established temperature correspondence between the tympanic membrane and the oral cavity, and then establishes a temperature correspondence between the blood glucose increment and the oral temperature increment through a pre-calibrated invasive blood glucose value and an oral calibration temperature, thereby being able to calculate the target blood glucose increment, and finally calculating the target blood glucose value based on the target blood glucose increment and the pre-calibrated invasive blood glucose value, thereby improving the physical sensitivity of the blood glucose measurement process and reducing the impact of other factors on the blood glucose measurement.

[0068] The blood glucose measurement method provided in the embodiment of the present application is specifically illustrated by the following examples. First, the tympanic membrane temperature measurement device in the embodiment of the present application is described.

[0069] 1 , which is a flow chart of a blood glucose measurement method provided in some other embodiments of the present application, the blood glucose measurement method may include but is not limited to step S110 , step S120 , step S130 and step S140 .

[0070] Step S110: obtaining a target eardrum temperature and a target ambient temperature;

[0071] It should be noted that both the target tympanic membrane temperature and the target ambient temperature need to be acquired under a constant ambient temperature, wherein the constant duration can be 1 hour, 2 hours, or 5 hours.

[0072] Step S120: converting the target ambient temperature based on the relationship between the ambient temperature and the temperature difference between the eardrum and the oral cavity to obtain the temperature difference between the eardrum and the oral cavity at the target ambient temperature;

[0073] It should be noted that, based on the relationship between the ambient temperature and the temperature difference between the eardrum and the oral cavity, the temperature difference at the current target ambient temperature is fitted and predicted to obtain the temperature difference between the eardrum and the oral cavity at the target ambient temperature, wherein the relationship between the ambient temperature and the temperature difference between the eardrum and the oral cavity is fitted through calibration data.

[0074] Step S130: converting the target tympanic membrane temperature according to the temperature difference to obtain the target oral temperature;

[0075] It should be noted that the target tympanic membrane temperature and the temperature difference are summed to obtain the target oral temperature.

[0076] Step S140: According to the relationship between oral temperature and blood glucose, the target oral temperature is converted into a corresponding blood glucose value to obtain the target blood glucose value.

[0077] It should be noted that the relationship between oral temperature and blood sugar is fitted using calibration data.

[0078] 2 , which is a flow chart of a blood glucose measurement method provided in some other embodiments of the present application, the blood glucose measurement method may include but is not limited to step S210 , step S220 , step S230 and step S240 .

[0079] Step S210: obtaining a plurality of environmental calibration temperatures and their corresponding tympanic membrane calibration temperatures and oral cavity calibration temperatures;

[0080] It should be noted that multiple environmental calibration temperatures can be detected and acquired within 24 hours, and can be acquired before and after times when the ambient temperature difference is large, which can be the time interval of 5:30 to 6:30 in the early morning, the time interval of 12:30 to 13:30 at noon, the time interval of 16:30 to 18:30 in the afternoon, or the time interval of 22:30 to 25:00. This application does not make specific limitations.

[0081] Furthermore, the oral cavity calibration temperature requires calibration and detection of the oral cavity through an oral temperature measuring device.

[0082] Step S220: calculating the difference between the tympanic membrane calibration temperature and the oral cavity calibration temperature at each environmental calibration temperature according to the environmental calibration temperature, and obtaining the temperature difference between the tympanic membrane and the oral cavity at multiple environmental calibration temperatures;

[0083] It should be noted that the calculation of the difference between the tympanic membrane calibration temperature and the oral calibration temperature can be performed by calculating the average of multiple tympanic membrane calibration temperatures and the average of multiple oral calibration temperatures at the same ambient temperature and then taking the difference between the two, or by calculating the difference between multiple tympanic membrane calibration temperatures and oral calibration temperatures and then taking the average. This application does not make any specific restrictions.

[0084] Step S230: determining a target temperature difference relationship between the eardrum and the oral cavity at different ambient temperatures based on a plurality of ambient calibration temperatures and their corresponding temperature differences;

[0085] It should be noted that in the fitting relationship curve of the target temperature difference between the tympanic membrane and the oral cavity under different ambient temperatures, the X-axis is the ambient temperature, and the Y-axis is the target temperature difference between the tympanic membrane and the oral cavity, and the curve can be a linear equation curve, a quadratic equation curve, or an N-order equation curve, which is not specifically limited in this application.

[0086] Step S240: performing a relationship conversion on the target ambient temperature according to the target temperature difference relationship to obtain the temperature difference between the eardrum and the oral cavity at the target ambient temperature.

[0087] Furthermore, the Y value corresponding to the X axis of the target ambient temperature on the fitting relationship curve is used as the temperature difference between the eardrum and the oral cavity at the target ambient temperature.

[0088] 3 , which is a flow chart of a blood glucose measurement method provided in some other embodiments of the present application, the blood glucose measurement method may include but is not limited to step S310 , step S320 , and step S330 .

[0089] Step S310: obtaining a universal temperature difference relationship between the eardrum and the oral cavity as a first temperature difference relationship;

[0090] It should be noted that since everyone's physique is different, the temperature difference between the eardrum and the mouth is also different for each person. The universal temperature difference relationship is fitted by collecting the average temperature difference between the eardrum and the mouth of the public at different ambient temperatures. It represents the average level of the temperature difference between the eardrum and the mouth of most people at different ambient temperatures.

[0091] Step S320: determining a temperature difference relationship between the eardrum and the oral cavity at different ambient temperatures based on the multiple ambient calibration temperatures and the corresponding temperature differences as a second temperature difference relationship;

[0092] It should be noted that the second temperature difference relationship is the temperature difference relationship between the eardrum and the oral cavity of the user under different ambient temperatures, which is obtained by fitting the user's own ambient calibration temperature, eardrum calibration temperature and oral calibration temperature.

[0093] Step S330: Under the same ambient temperature, the difference between the first temperature difference relationship and the second temperature difference relationship is compared with a preset threshold to obtain a target temperature difference relationship.

[0094] Specifically, because individuals are easily affected by the external environment during the measurement process, there are certain errors in the measured ambient calibration temperature, tympanic membrane calibration temperature and oral calibration temperature, and thus the fitted temperature difference relationship between the tympanic membrane and the oral cavity under different ambient temperatures of the individual may have certain errors. It is necessary to correct the individual temperature difference relationship through the universal temperature difference relationship to make the fitting result more accurate, thereby improving the accuracy of subsequent blood glucose conversion.

[0095] 4 , which is a flow chart of a blood glucose measurement method provided in some other embodiments of the present application, the blood glucose measurement method may include but is not limited to step S410 and step S420 .

[0096] Step S410: If the absolute value of the relationship difference is less than a preset threshold, the second temperature difference relationship is used as the target temperature difference relationship;

[0097] It should be noted that, if the absolute value of the first temperature difference relationship is less than a preset threshold value at the same ambient temperature, and the second temperature difference relationship is within a reasonable error range, the second temperature difference relationship is used as the target temperature difference relationship.

[0098] Step S420: Alternatively, if the absolute value of the relationship difference is greater than or equal to a preset threshold, the relationship curve of the first temperature difference relationship is shifted up and down in the corresponding direction according to the relationship difference, and the first temperature difference relationship after the relationship curve is shifted is obtained as the target temperature difference relationship.

[0099] It should be noted that if the absolute value of the relationship difference is greater than or equal to the preset threshold, the second temperature difference relationship is outside the reasonable error range, and the relationship curve of the first temperature difference relationship needs to be translated up and down in the corresponding direction according to the relationship difference. The displacement of the translation is determined by the size of the difference, and the direction of the translation is determined by the positive or negative sign of the difference.

[0100] Furthermore, the value of the relationship difference can be the difference between the average temperature difference of the first temperature difference relationship and the average temperature difference of the second temperature difference relationship, or the difference between the temperature difference of the first temperature difference relationship and the temperature difference of the second temperature difference relationship at the same temperature, or the average difference between the temperature difference of the first temperature difference relationship and the temperature difference of the second temperature difference relationship at multiple temperatures.

[0101] Referring to FIG. 5 , FIG. 5 is a flowchart of a blood glucose measurement method provided in some other embodiments of the present application. The blood glucose measurement method may include but is not limited to step S510 and step S520 .

[0102] Step S510: when the relationship difference is a positive number, the relationship curve of the first temperature difference relationship is shifted downward according to the relationship difference, and the first temperature difference relationship after the relationship curve is shifted is obtained as the target temperature difference relationship;

[0103] It should be noted that when the relationship difference is positive, the relationship curve of the first temperature difference relationship is above the coordinate axis of the relationship curve of the second temperature difference relationship. It is necessary to shift the relationship curve of the first temperature difference relationship downward by the displacement of the relationship difference, and then use the shifted first temperature difference relationship as the target temperature difference relationship.

[0104] Step S520: Alternatively, when the relationship difference is a negative number, the relationship curve of the first temperature difference relationship is shifted upward according to the relationship difference, and the first temperature difference relationship after the relationship curve is shifted is obtained as the target temperature difference relationship.

[0105] It should be noted that when the relationship difference is negative, the relationship curve of the first temperature difference relationship is below the coordinate axis of the relationship curve of the second temperature difference relationship. The relationship curve of the first temperature difference relationship needs to be shifted upward by the displacement of the relationship difference, and then the first temperature difference relationship after the shift is used as the target temperature difference relationship.

[0106] 6 , which is a flow chart of a blood glucose measurement method provided in some other embodiments of the present application, the blood glucose measurement method may include but is not limited to step S610 , step S620 , step S630 and step S640 .

[0107] Step S610: Acquire multiple ambient universal temperatures and corresponding tympanic membrane universal temperatures and oral cavity universal temperatures;

[0108] Specifically, the above universal parameters require multiple users to perform multiple tympanic membrane temperature and oral temperature measurements at different ambient temperatures within the same preset ambient temperature range in the same area, and the users need to maintain a constant state at the same ambient temperature for a period of time, and temperature measurement will only be performed when the preset time measurement threshold is exceeded.

[0109] Furthermore, the above-mentioned preset ambient temperature range can be 5°C to 30°C, 10°C to 35°C, 5°C to 35°C, or 8°C to 37°C, and this application does not make any specific limitations.

[0110] Furthermore, the above-mentioned preset time measurement threshold may be 10 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, or 1 hour, and this application does not make any specific limitation.

[0111] Step S620: Calculating the difference between the universal temperature of the tympanic membrane and the universal temperature of the oral cavity at each universal temperature according to the universal temperature of the environment, and obtaining a first universal temperature difference between the tympanic membrane and the oral cavity at the plurality of universal temperatures of the environment;

[0112] It should be noted that the first universal temperature difference between the eardrum and the oral cavity under multiple universal ambient temperatures is the first universal temperature difference between the eardrum and the oral cavity under multiple universal ambient temperatures of multiple users.

[0113] Step S630: performing data dimensionality reduction on the first universal temperature difference under different environmental universal temperatures to obtain a second universal temperature difference under different environmental universal temperatures;

[0114] It should be noted that since the first universal temperature difference value includes the first universal temperature difference value of multiple users, there are multiple user-specific temperature difference relationship curves. The first universal temperature difference value needs to be converted from a two-dimensional parameter to a one-dimensional parameter to obtain the corresponding universal temperature difference relationship curve. The dimensionality reduction method can be to take the average value of the temperature difference between the eardrum and the mouth of multiple users at the same ambient temperature, or to take the median value of the temperature difference between the eardrum and the mouth of multiple users at the same ambient temperature, so that each ambient temperature on the X-axis of the coordinate axis has only one corresponding universal temperature difference between the eardrum and the mouth.

[0115] Step S640: According to the plurality of ambient universal temperatures and their corresponding second universal temperature differences, a universal temperature difference relationship between the eardrum and the oral cavity at different universal ambient temperatures is determined and used as a first temperature difference relationship.

[0116] It should be noted that the relationship curve of the universal temperature difference relationship can be a quadratic equation curve, a cubic equation curve, or an Nth-order equation curve.

[0117] The blood glucose measurement method of the present application is further described in detail below through another example.

[0118] Multiple volunteers are gathered in the same room equipped with an air-conditioning system. The air-conditioning system is used to control the temperature of blood glucose monitoring within the range of 5°C to 30°C. Multiple indoor ambient temperatures are set to 5°C, 10°C, 15°C, 20°C, 25°C and 30°C, respectively. Each volunteer is then asked to maintain each temperature test point for at least 15 minutes. The universal oral temperature and universal tympanic membrane temperature of each volunteer at the above ambient temperature are measured respectively. The universal difference between the two is calculated and the average is taken. According to the average of the universal difference between the oral temperature and the tympanic membrane temperature and the corresponding ambient temperature, a relationship curve equation is constructed to obtain the universal temperature difference relationship between the tympanic membrane and the oral cavity. Figure 7 is a diagram of the universal relationship curve equation between the ambient temperature of multiple volunteers and the difference between the tympanic membrane temperature and the oral temperature provided in some embodiments of the present application. It can be seen that the universal relationship curve equation between the oral temperature and the tympanic membrane temperature is:

[0119] (1)DT=-0.0008Th2+0.05Th+0.225;

[0120] Where DT represents the universal difference between the tympanic membrane and the oral cavity temperature, and Th represents the universal ambient temperature.

[0121] The blood glucose measurement method of the present application is further described in detail below through another example.

[0122] During the calibration process before blood glucose monitoring, volunteer B obtained the difference between the tympanic membrane calibration temperature and the oral calibration temperature at 11 ambient temperatures, where three moments with large ambient temperature differences can be selected: the state before eating breakfast at 6:30 (ambient temperature of 13.3°C), the state before eating lunch at 11:50 (ambient temperature of 16.6°C), and the state 2 hours after eating lunch at 15:25 (ambient temperature of 23.2°C). The differences between the tympanic membrane calibration temperature and the oral calibration temperature are 0.611°C, 0.670°C, and 0.753°C, respectively. As shown in FIG8 , FIG8 is a comparison diagram of the relationship curve between the ambient temperature of volunteer B and the difference between the tympanic membrane temperature and the oral temperature and the equation of the universal relationship curve provided in some embodiments of the present application. It can be seen that the relationship curve equation between the ambient temperature of volunteer B and the difference between the tympanic membrane temperature and the oral temperature is:

[0123] (2) DT = -0.0007T h 2 +0.0385T h +0.2212;

[0124] Where DT represents the temperature difference between the eardrum and oral cavity of volunteer B, T h Represents the ambient temperature.

[0125] Comparing the above equations (1) and (2), it can be seen that the coefficients of the relationship curve of volunteer B are not significantly different from the average coefficient of the universal relationship curve, indicating that the difference relationship between the tympanic membrane temperature and oral temperature obtained by volunteer B during the calibration process is reasonable. Through mathematical simulation, the relationship can be extended to lower or higher ambient temperatures, such as as low as 5°C or as high as 30°C, as a difference equation suitable for volunteer B personally.

[0126] The blood glucose measurement method of the present application is further described in detail below through another example.

[0127] The ambient temperature of volunteer C during the calibration process was concentrated around 25°C, with an average of 25.2°C. The tympanic membrane temperature and oral temperature of volunteer C were measured before breakfast, before lunch, before dinner, and after dinner over 25 hours, as shown in Figure 9. Figure 9 is a comparison diagram of the relationship curve between the ambient temperature of volunteer C and the difference between the tympanic membrane temperature and oral temperature, and the equation of the universal relationship curve provided in some embodiments of the present application. It can be seen that the average of the difference between the tympanic membrane temperature and oral temperature of volunteer C when the ambient temperature is 25.2°C is 0.651°C, which is 0.1092°C lower than the average of the difference of 0.7502°C when the ambient temperature is 25.2°C on the universal relationship curve mentioned above. The universal curve needs to be shifted downward by 0.1092°C to obtain a difference curve suitable for volunteer C personally. The equation of the relationship curve between the ambient temperature of volunteer C and the difference between the tympanic membrane temperature and oral temperature is:

[0128] (3) DT = -0.008T h 2 +0.051T h +0.1158;

[0129] Where DT represents the temperature difference between the eardrum and oral cavity of volunteer C, T h Represents the ambient temperature.

[0130] Referring to FIG. 10 , FIG. 10 is a flowchart of a blood glucose measurement method provided in some other embodiments of the present application. The blood glucose measurement method may include but is not limited to step S1010 , step S1020 , step S1030 and step S1040 .

[0131] Step S1010: obtaining a calibrated blood glucose value and an oral calibration temperature before measuring the oral temperature, wherein the calibrated blood glucose value is calibrated in an invasive manner;

[0132] Specifically, the time required to measure the calibrated blood glucose value during the calibration process is 24 hours. The time points that need to be measured are before breakfast, 1 hour after breakfast, 2 hours after breakfast, before lunch, 1 hour after lunch, 2 hours after lunch, before dinner, 1 hour after dinner, 2 hours after dinner, before bedtime and when getting up at midnight. A total of 11 calibrated blood glucose values ​​are measured.

[0133] Furthermore, the blood glucose value is calibrated in an invasive manner, which may be done by fingertip blood sampling, arm vein blood sampling, or hand back vein blood sampling, and this application does not limit this.

[0134] Step S1020: Obtaining a target oral temperature increment according to the target oral temperature and the oral calibration temperature;

[0135] It should be noted that the oral calibration temperature is the oral calibration temperature measured at the time when the target eardrum is measured, which is closest to the aforementioned calibration time. The target oral temperature and the oral calibration temperature are subtracted to obtain the target oral temperature increment.

[0136] Step S1030: converting the target oral temperature increment based on the relationship between the oral temperature increment and the blood glucose increment to obtain the target blood glucose increment;

[0137] It should be noted that in the fitting relationship curve of the relationship between the oral temperature increment and the blood glucose increment, the X-axis is the oral temperature increment, and the Y-axis is the blood glucose increment, and the curve can be a linear equation curve, a quadratic equation curve, or an N-order equation curve, which is not specifically limited in this application.

[0138] To further explain, the target blood glucose increment can be a positive number, a negative number, or zero.

[0139] Step S1040: Obtain the target blood glucose value according to the calibrated blood glucose value and the target blood glucose increment.

[0140] It should also be noted that the calibrated blood glucose value is the calibrated blood glucose value measured at the time when the target eardrum is measured, which is closest to the above-mentioned calibration time. The target blood glucose value is obtained by adding the calibrated blood glucose value to the target blood glucose increment.

[0141] Referring to FIG. 11 , FIG. 11 is a flowchart of a blood glucose measurement method provided in some other embodiments of the present application. The blood glucose measurement method may include but is not limited to steps S1110 , S1120 , S1130 , step S1140 and step S1150 .

[0142] Step S1110: Acquire multiple oral calibrated temperatures and multiple calibrated blood glucose values;

[0143] Specifically, the multiple calibrated oral temperatures and the multiple calibrated blood glucose values ​​are the oral temperatures and invasive blood glucose values ​​obtained at the aforementioned 11 times.

[0144] Step S1120: Calculating the differences between the oral calibration temperatures at adjacent times based on the multiple oral calibration temperatures to obtain multiple oral calibration temperature increments;

[0145] Specifically, when the oral calibration temperature is the oral temperature obtained at the above 11 times, by calculating the difference between the oral calibration temperatures at adjacent times, 10 oral calibration temperature increments will be obtained.

[0146] Step S1130: Calculating the differences between the calibrated blood glucose values ​​at adjacent times based on the multiple calibrated blood glucose values ​​to obtain multiple calibrated blood glucose value increments;

[0147] Specifically, when the calibrated blood glucose value is the invasive blood glucose value obtained at the above 11 times, by calculating the difference between the calibrated blood glucose values ​​at adjacent times, 10 calibrated blood glucose value increments will be obtained.

[0148] Step S1140: determining a relationship between the oral temperature increment and the blood glucose increment based on a plurality of oral calibration temperature increments and corresponding blood glucose value increments;

[0149] It should be noted that in the fitting relationship curve of the relationship between the oral temperature increment and the blood glucose increment, the X-axis is the oral temperature increment, and the Y-axis is the blood glucose increment, and the curve can be a linear equation curve, a quadratic equation curve, or an N-order equation curve, which is not specifically limited in this application.

[0150] Step S1150: According to the relationship between the oral temperature increment and the blood glucose increment, the target oral temperature increment is converted to obtain the target blood glucose increment.

[0151] It should be noted that the Y value corresponding to the X-axis of the target oral temperature on the fitting relationship curve is used as the target blood glucose increment.

[0152] The blood glucose measurement method of the present application is further described in detail below through another example.

[0153] After the calibration of the method in the above embodiment was completed, volunteer D underwent dynamic blood glucose monitoring, as shown in Figure 12. Figure 12 is a dynamic curve of the tympanic membrane temperature of volunteer D within 25 hours provided by some embodiments of the present application. It can be seen that the curve has three peaks, which correspond to three meals (meal times are: 6:53, 12:55 and 18:50 respectively). The increase in tympanic membrane temperature caused by the increase in metabolic heat due to increased blood glucose reflects the positive correlation between tympanic membrane temperature and blood glucose, that is, the tympanic membrane temperature will also increase when blood glucose increases.
