If I donβt get insulin, Iβll be in a coma in 24 hours, dead in 48. Make sure I inject insulin.
Then I have the problem of how much to inject.
Insulin is a hormone. Hormones generally work together, and if youβre controlling just one individual hormone, itβs really tricky.
No two bodies are the same, no two life situations are the same.
Itβs highly individual, all diabetics must track themselves and learn what dosage works for them in any given situation.
βAll diabeticsβ are 370 million people all over the world.
The numbers are growing fast, and this phenomenon is often called an epidemic.
Traditionally, with a logbook, by pen on paper. There are logbook apps as well.
Blood glucose, carbohydrates in everything I eat and drink, physical exercise, insulin dosages.
(Stress, sickness, changes in weight)
The problem with all of them is the double amount of work.
You know, most of that data already exists somewhere or can be tracked really easily.
Diabetes devices keep rich logs, a pedometer app automatically keeps track of my activity, meal logger for snapping pics of meals...
Best tools for each purpose! Collaborate with all the great companies present here today.
That takes care of tracking. How about learning?
Whatβs been missing so far has been a way to get all this information together in a way thatβs meaningful for diabetes treatment.
Thatβs what we do!
Thereβs an emerging market of HIEs, like Taltioni or Microsoft HealthVault, just to name a few.
Systems parallel to Electronic Health Records you find in hospitals,
Focused on preventive and after care, where patients do the measurements and are more in charge of their treatment.
We feed the data from the diabetes devices and all these apps and gadgets to these systems.
Once we have the data in these central locations
We visualize it for diabetics and their healthcare professionals, so they can analyze how certain type of activity or meal affects blood glucose or body weight.
Once we get enough data available, subject it to big data analysis.
These diabetics are doing really well, these others are much like them but perform worse.
What can they learn from this group thatβs doing better?
To see all this live in action, come to our stand
There youβll meet the whole team.
Core team still looking for financial expertise, and financing as well, by the way. Spread the word.
