A distributed system of wearable analyzers for the diagnosis of peripheral blood flow disorders in type 2 diabetes mellitus

This paper discusses a method for the diagnosis of peripheral blood flow disorders in type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) using a distributed system of wearable blood microcirculation analyzers based on laser Doppler flowmetry. This method was tested in a clinical setting. The research resulted in the development of a classification model based on linear discriminant analysis and allowing the presence of peripheral blood flow disorders in patients with type 2 diabetes to be identified with sensitivity and specificity indicators of 0.88 and 0.90 respectively.
