Calibration of non-invasive blood glucose measuring devices have an important role in the routine of people with diabetes. Continuous monitoring is one of the most efficient manner to control the disease. Besides the errors associated with the user, the calibration of such devices is the key point for obtaining reliable data. Researchers have failed to correlate the 2 near-infrared-light wavelength response from skin with the blood glucose level and then use it for diagnosing both upper and lower glycaemia status. The aim of this article is to purpose a mathematical model for calculating the blood glucose level using 3-LEDs with different wavelengths. It is presented and demonstrated all equations involved by using the theory of absorption of light by photoplethysmography. The final proposed equation can be calculated without using prior data obtained from patient. It can be concluded that it is possible to reduce the necessity of using calibration processes before acquiring data by a non-invasive device.

We have studied and analyzed status and metrological supervision of blood glucose monitors, individual devices for a person’s blood glucose level measurement. It has been indicated that nowadays blood glucose monitors like other individual devices for medical measurement are not allowed to be involved in telemedicine public service. This accounts for absence of metrological supervision with these measurement devices in telemedicine. In addition, the key problem is absence of safe methods and means of remote verificaition, calibration and transmission of measurement data to health care centers. The article offers a remote test method for blood glucose monitors using a number of resistors with values correlating with measured blood glucose level. The available method has been successfully trialed in real practice.
