Welldoc的基于移动的糖尿病管理系统在地平线上

有时，它似乎是手机改善您的医生访问的唯一方式是让您有机会向候诊室发短信。That could be about to change thanks to WellDoc’s promising new mobile phone-based Diabetes Manager system, which was cleared by the FDA in August and is slated for commercial launch in early 2011. The program allows people to enter their diabetes data into their phone – blood glucose values, carbohydrates eaten, diabetes medicines taken, and other comments – and provides real-time feedback on that data using WellDoc’s Automated Expert System, a computer algorithm designed with the input of physicians, CDEs, dieticians, and other health care providers. Physicians can access the data via an online portal and receive data analysis reports in order to stay informed between check-ups. Additionally, the system provides certified diabetes educators (CDEs) and their patients an e-mail like messaging system for two-way communication, but it’s HIPPA compliant and secure. Access to educational content such as video on lifestyle, food, and behavior change support can also be found on the phone and the WellDoc webportal. Fortunately, Diabetes Manager is designed for data-enabled mobile phones – basically any phone that can receive text messages, not just smart phones.

在最近美国糖尿病教育者协会（AADE）会议上，研究人员展示了一年的试验初步结果，其中使用糖尿病管理系统的患者达到1C水平的近2％，而A1C的0.5％用于未使用的患者系统。该系统还在2006年在三个月的一项研究中展示了A1C中A1C的2％下降。最近的一项研究是第一次举行全年的移动卫生设备的试验。我们希望这是一个指标，即具有真正影响的移动健康解决方案在地平线上。- pa / js.
