Extension of a Glycaemic Control Medical Application with New Functions and Ergonomic User Interface Elements

The human body is composed of numerous highly complex metabolic processes. Abnormal variation of the blood glucose concentration is a common complication in the intensive care units. This paper presents a model-based method of glycaemic control and a medical application implementing the glycaemic control protocol. The principal cases were to extend the functionality of the application in order to automatically create multiple episodes for a patient already in the database of the application and an accessibly view for previous treatments calculation. These functions are very helpful and convenient because allow to the clinicians to have new measurements and a treatment calculation without entering the data of the patient again in the system. The visualization of previous treatments can be efficiently used to define optimized dosing for the subsequent treatment period. The paper concludes with the results of the extension of the medical application.
