Abstract
In the present healthcare climate, nearly 4 billion people lack access to medical
care around the world. Diabetes is one of the major chronic disease many people are
suffering from. Diabetes rates have doubled from 1980 to 2018, rising from 5% to 10% of
the world population. The prevalence has specifically increased in low- and middle-income
countries. The proposed system applies machine learning techniques to the collected dataset
to improve diabetes progression technique, disease prediction and patient self-management.
Machine learning techniques are widely used in this regard to develop analytic models. This
system analyses the data given from the user to identify behavioral patterns and clinical
conditions of the patient. This system analyses the collected data to identify the
improvements in patient’s diabetic status, habits and anomaly in daily routines, change in
sleeping and mobility, eating, drinking and digestive pattern. The user has to register
providing personal data and present medication undergoing. The user can regularly log on
to the system providing input data which are blood glucose level, blood pressure and present
medications. The system processes the input using machine learning techniques and
produces the output. The system determines whether the patient is normal or having
diabetes on the basis of several inputs given by him or her. If the patient is having diabetes,
it also determines which type of diabetes he or she is having. A graph will be plotted which
shows the diabetic variation over a week, a suggestion file is given to the user which includes
diet recommendations and further side effects patient may experience and measures to
overcome them and a message is sent to the user’s phone number at the time he should take
medications that he has mentioned earlier.
