data have very high predictive power for SH. This power, combined
with the minimal computing power the models require (calculating the
LBGI is no more difficult than computing average BG values),
indicates that hand-held SMBG devices should be entirely capable of
carrying out the computations. Therefore, implementation of these
models in future-generation SMBG devices is entirely possible. It is our
hope that the use of some of the models studied in this chapter will,
in the near future, become as widespread and as routine in improving
BG control as the use of the SMBG devices themselves is now.
