  • Abstract
    A simple control law is derived from the eponymous Bergman Minimal Model with the aim of implementing patient specific insulin injections. The Fisher Information Matrix is used to form an approximate necessary condition for the a posteriori identifiability of the Bergman Minimal Model´s parameters from home-use continuous glucose measurements. It is shown that despite parameter uncertainty control moves based on the control law are not subject to physiologically significant variability.
