Abstract

A method and system of predicting the level of the HbA component of glycosylated haemoglobin in a patient's blood. A mathematical model is derived which predicts the behavior of the HbA , component level relative to the blood glucose level using previously measured HbA and blood glucose levels. The model is updated each time a new HbA level is measured using that new measurement and recent new blood glucose level measurements. The updated model is then applied to predict the HbA level, between measurements of that level, using measurements of blood glucose level obtained since the last HbA measurement.
