Equipment and method for contemporaneous decision supporting metabolic control
First Claim
1. A method to generate ongoing metabolic state predictions for improved decision support in metabolic control, comprising the following steps:
- (a) entering into an apparatus ongoing metabolite contemporaneous time-stamped inputs from a user-patient and from biomedical assay equipment according to an interactive, time-stamped mode;
(b) allowing said user-patient to accept or reject the contemporaneous time-stamped inputs and storing the accepted inputs in appropriate memory areas of said apparatus;
(c) selecting one or more biological analytes (metabolite output values) to be controlled proactively using metabolic state predictions;
(d) assigning to each said metabolite contemporaneous time-stamped input an appropriate time function that describes its dynamic characteristics;
(e) computing predicted values of each contemporaneous time-stamped input in an ongoing manner, starting from the time of the appropriate time stamp data;
(f) assigning to each predicted value a time function/mathematical model, said time function/mathematical model being described by a time function/mathematical model comprising the general formula of;

Abstract
The invention addresses hardware and software products capable to make contemporaneous accurate predictions regarding how a person'"'"'s biological system will respond to a series of stimuli. The predictions can then be communicated in real time, enabling confirmation of good control status, need for corrective action, planning future actions, or even outside intervention in case of emergency. Also addresses by the invention is a family of diagnostic hardware based on intelligent optoelectronic sensors that incorporate one or more Wedge-and-Strip Position-Sensitive Photo-Detectors optimized for probabilistic real time evaluation of spectroscopy data from living subjects.

(b) assigning each said distinct component to an elementary category, wherein each category is described mathematically by a category-specific time function;
(c) calculating the time functions corresponding to the distinct components;
(d) calculating the combined effect of said components as a function of time;
said time function comprising a general formula of;
