Norwegian diabetes mHealth application

A Ph.D project at the Norwegian Centre for Integrated Care and Telemedicine has resulted in an interesting self-monitoring system for diabetics.  Eirik Årsandt based it on a smartphone, a glucose monitor, a step counter and software that trends and inputs information.  The monitor and counter upload wirelessly to the smartphone, the person can enter medication and diet information and the app creates a useful diary.  Further testing will be part of an EU project called "Renewing Health" starting this month, with a group of 200 subjects.  Article (in English).
