Remote Patient Monitoring for Diabetes (Type 1 & Type 2)
Diabetes (Type 1 & Type 2) What is it?
Diabetes is a chronic metabolic disease that occurs when the body cannot produce enough insulin hormone to regulate blood sugar (glucose) or cannot effectively use the insulin it produces. In Type 1 diabetes, the pancreas largely stops insulin production, while in Type 2 diabetes, the body develops resistance to insulin or produces insufficient insulin.
Uncontrolled high blood sugar can adversely affect eye, kidney, nervous system, and vascular health over time, and increase the risk of heart disease and stroke. Blood sugar levels fluctuate frequently throughout the day depending on nutrition, physical activity, stress, illness, and medication/insulin administration.
Why is Remote Monitoring Important?
Treatment success in diabetes depends on blood sugar levels being measured at the right times and this data being regularly shared with the doctor. Planning treatment based only on values measured during check-up visits can miss daily fluctuations.
Remote patient monitoring enables fine-tuning of treatment by transmitting the real course of blood sugar throughout the day to the doctor. Early detection of emergencies like hypoglycemia (low sugar) or hyperglycemia (high sugar) plays a decisive role in preventing serious complications.
Monitoring with TURP Digital Health Platform
Real-Time Vital Sign Monitoring
Blood sugar, blood pressure, pulse, and SpO₂ measurements taken with Health Monitor are instantly processed into the TURP platform. The doctor tracks the patient's glucose trends over time with graphs and adjusts insulin or medication dosage accordingly.
Patient-Doctor Messaging
The patient can directly send questions about eating habits, exercise status, medication side effects, or daily sugar measurements to their doctor. This communication channel ensures continuity of lifestyle support, which is crucial in diabetes management.
Secure Video Consultation
Regular doctor check-ups required in diabetes monitoring are conducted from home via video consultation. The doctor reviews past measurement data live on screen and revises the treatment plan together with the patient.
Digital Prescription & Report Management
Insulin dosage changes, oral antidiabetic medication adjustments, and laboratory-based reports are digitally managed through the system. The patient can access their current treatment plan on the platform at any time.
Medical Device Integration
Blood sugar measurements from Health Monitor are directly transferred to the system, eliminating the need for manual record keeping. Both patient and doctor have access to current and error-free data history.
Devices Used
Health Monitor: In addition to blood sugar measurement, this device can also track blood pressure, pulse, SpO₂, and body temperature, allowing diabetes patients to manage their daily measurement routine through a single device.
How Does the Monitoring Process Work?
The patient is provided with the Health Monitor device and measurement frequency is determined by the doctor.
The patient takes blood sugar (and blood pressure if needed) measurements at designated times daily.
Measurement results are automatically processed into the TURP platform.
The doctor reviews the data at regular intervals; is immediately notified of critical values.
When necessary, the patient is evaluated via video consultation and treatment is updated.
Insulin/medication dosage adjustments are delivered as digital prescriptions to the patient.
