An mhealth Platform to Evaluate Glycaemic Variability in Type 1 Diabetes

Abstract

We present a short-term observational study of the fluctuation of glycemic variability with or without the presence of physical exercise based on the ambulatory glucose profile recommendations and measures using an mHealth platform for patient monitoring and data collection. The correlation of physical exercise to diabetes type 1 is presented using the Pearson’s and Spearman’s correlation coefficients. The multi–parametric dataset comes from the continuous monitoring of seven type 1 diabetic individuals under free living conditions for 14 consecutive days. The results enable the clinician to develop individualized treatment plans for each patient and they can potentially be used in prediction models.
