Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method and an apparatus for the non-invasive measurement of blood components and clinical parameters, in particular for glucose measurement, with the aid of optical spectroscopy of skin tissue in the visible, infrared or ultraviolet spectral range.
  • the concentration of the analytes is in a wide range, which depends on the substance group.
  • the blood components are queried: substrates such as the well-known blood sugar (glucose), blood lipids, cholesterol and others, as well as the various enzymes and electrolytes.
  • substrates such as the well-known blood sugar (glucose), blood lipids, cholesterol and others, as well as the various enzymes and electrolytes.
  • the immunological determinations represent an important division. Furthermore, hormones and metabolites (metabolic products) are examined.
  • spectroscopy in which the interaction of electromagnetic radiation of different wavelengths with the body tissue or the analysis sample is used.
  • magnetic resonance spectroscopy is used for detailed imaging on the patient, but also for the analysis of physiological processes in the organism. Here measuring frequencies up to 400 MHz and higher are used.
  • pulse oximetry uses visible and infrared light to determine the oxygen saturation of the blood, more precisely the hemoglobin in the red blood cells.
  • Infrared spectroscopy in particular has been improved in recent years. Infrared spectroscopy preferably uses radiation with a longer wavelength than visible light between 780 n and 1,000 ⁇ . Substance spectra of the infrared spectral range maintain a high level of information regarding component identification and quantification. In so-called absorption spectroscopy, the different components of a sample each absorb certain radiation components of different wavelengths according to their specific spectrum, which can be measured with a suitable spectrometer.
  • the instrumental developments and so-called chemometric evaluation techniques now also enable the quantitative analysis of multi-component systems, such as those that represent human blood or liquids derived from it. With novel measuring techniques, quantitative analyzes of components in parts per thousand and lower can be carried out in these biotic aqueous samples.
  • non-invasive, transcutaneous blood diagnostics can also be carried out by measuring body tissue or tissue components.
  • this is desirable and important for patients with metabolic disorders, in particular due to diabetes mellitus.
  • This is a disease in which there is a lack or complete absence of the insulin hormone produced in the pancreas or insufficient insulin activity in the body. Out For this reason, sufficient utilization of sugar as the most important source of energy for the human body can no longer be guaranteed. Accordingly, the blood sugar concentration, which is otherwise regulated in healthy people by the body within relatively narrow limits, rises and falls.
  • the hormone concentrations of insulin and glucagon in the blood plasma which are released in healthy people by the islet cells of the pancreas depending on the blood glucose concentration, play an important role here.
  • the carbohydrate intake via food intake is a disturbance variable in the control loop.
  • the liver is an important organ for homeostasis (maintaining balance) of the blood glucose concentration, since it can convert glucose directly to the reserve carbohydrate glycogen (insulin-dependent), this too low Reduces blood sugar levels again to provide glucose, which is induced by an increased release of glucagon. If the blood glucose concentration rises above a certain elevated value, glucose is also excreted via the kidneys. The rate of entry of glucose for most body cells, and thus consumption, is determined by the insulin concentration.
  • Diabetes is a widespread disease. About 5% of the population of the Federal Republic of Germany suffer from diabetes mellitus. It is estimated that a total of more than 650,000 patients require insulin. There are approximately 30,000,000 diabetics worldwide, and the trend is rising. This disease is currently not curable, but sensible and conscious behavior by the patient can prevent medical complications in the long term. These include disorders in the micro and later also the macro circulation of the blood, which means e.g. Kidney damage and blindness are caused. The disease and its costs cause about a third of all health care costs.
  • the diabetic tries to replicate the natural control loop in order to keep the blood sugar concentration close to the normal value of healthy people, which is naturally dimension is only possible with restrictions.
  • Current blood glucose meters are equipped with test strips and require blood samples to be taken. Because of their necessity, the possibility of determining blood glucose is severely restricted. With the so-called intensified insulin therapy, the diabetic has to check his blood sugar level several times a day. Many people refrain from doing this because they fear the pain of finger pricking before taking blood or the possibility of infection, especially in diabetic children, the daily ritual for measuring blood glucose is a problem.
  • Another strategy uses the so-called classic modeling, for which all components contributing to the measured and evaluated sample spectrum must be known with their spectra. An adjustment with these by minimizing the error squares provides concentration estimates.
  • a useful pretreatment to simplify IR skin spectra is the so-called orthogonalization against, for example, certain factor spectra, which can be used to model the spectral variance. Some main components (factor spectra) are dominated by the tissue water in the examined skin volume (see HM Heise, Medical Applications of Infrared Spectrosco- py, microchim. Acta (Suppl.) 14, 67-77 (1997). However, all of these known methods have so far not been able to provide precise blood glucose concentration values, particularly in the hypoglycemic range, ie in the hypoglycemic range.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to provide a solution with which accurate measurement results in the non-invasive measurement of blood components by means of infrared spectroscopy are also possible in the hypoglycemic range.
  • This object is achieved according to the invention in a method of the type mentioned at the outset by measuring the blood volume and the metabolic state of the skin sample in addition to measuring glucose on the skin sample and determining the blood glucose concentration on the basis of these measured values (metabolic state) and the measured tissue glucose concentration.

  • An improved measurement of the metabolic state of the examined skin sample is possible by measuring the pulse spectrum (in the arterial space) and the integral blood space, which is used to determine the arteriovenous difference in the degree of oxygenation (AVD), which provides an indication of the metabolic activity of the examined tissue is proportional to the consumption of oxygen and glucose.
