Diabetes has always been at the forefront of technological advances in patient care. This overview introduces connected and continuous glucose sensing technologies, smart insulin delivery systems and more innovations that help patients and doctors monitor and manage glucose levels and guide decision-making in diabetes care.
➡️️ Connected Care – Realtime, remote monitoring of glucometers, with its data being combined with data from Apps that monitor food and carbohydrate intake.
➡️️ Non-/ minimal invasive glucose monitoring – Wireless driven “smart contact lens” technology that could detect diabetes and further treat diabetic retinopathy just by wearing the lense
➡️️ Insulin delivery: smart pens and pumps- Self learning AI that is specifically adapted to the patient’s history
➡️️ Artificial pancreas – Bionic or artificial pancreases basically replicate the function of a healthy organ
The emergence and advancement of these technologies have improved the quality of life for patients tremendously!
