Over the years, diabetes has become the cause with the fastest rise in mortality rates among the ten leading causes of death in Taiwan. In the early onset, diabetic patients often miss the best time for disease control and treatment as symptoms are not easily detected. Therefore, once a person contracts diabetes, the person has to undergo long-term treatment and control, thus the resulting in high medical costs that burden the government. If patients can self-monitor their blood sugar in daily life, they will be able to reduce complications of diabetes. Since most blood glucose meters available in the market only feature one-way blood sugar testing, without abnormal blood sugar value detection and patient interaction functions, this paper is intended to structuralize data collected through medical data and related literatures and using diabetes as an example. Through determination rules and processes compiled, a rules engine experiment system was setup for blood glucose meters and glucose self-management system to determine abnormal glucose detected through the rules engine. It is expected to contribute to the enhancement of future blood glucose meter functions as well as the development of a diabetes self-test system that helps achieve the goal of early control, thereby decreasing diabetic patients and medical costs.
