Abstract:
Disclosed is a glucose measuring apparatus including a pressure measurer having an elastic part or a pressure sensor, that measures a pressure applied to an object, a film that comprises a first optical waveguide configured to be close to the object, a near infrared ray (NIR) irradiator that irradiates an NIR to the first optical waveguide if the measured pressure is greater than or equal to a preset value, an NIR receiver that receives an attenuated total reflection NIR (ATR-NIR) from the first optical waveguide, and an analyzer that measures a blood glucose level based on the ATR-NIR, wherein the film is an independent module that can be combined with and separated from the glucose measuring apparatus.

Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses for blood glucose measurement are provided. A first glucose concentration in a body fluid of a user is detected based on a first measurement interval. A first blood glucose level of the user is determined based on the first glucose concentration. A glucose concentration measurement interval is changed from the first measurement interval to a second measurement interval according to an occurrence of an event. A second glucose concentration in the body fluid is detected based on the second measurement interval. A second blood glucose level of the user is determined based on the second glucose concentration.
