Turkish mobile operator launches device for connecting wireless blood glucose meter
Release date: 2014-09-29 Turkcell, a Turkish mobile operator, has teamed up with researchers at Istanbul University to develop a wireless functional diabetes device, the Turkcell Medical Device, which says it can improve patient outcomes. The Turkcell Medical Device is a small box-enabled device that can be paired with multiple Bluetooth-enabled blood glucose meters without a smartphone. In the study, the medical device will receive the patient's blood glucose meter device and send it to their treating doctor wirelessly. About 200 people with diabetes participated in the study, and all participants followed conventional medications, and half of them used medical devices. If there is any abnormality in the data reported to the provider, the doctor will use a text message to alert you, and if necessary, will immediately help intervene in their treatment. The family and other caregivers can also alert the patient to treatment as required. According to Turkcell, the average glycated hemoglobin level (average of 3 months of blood glucose) was 9% lower in patients wearing connected devices. The company said that patients using the device had an average glycosylated hemoglobin level of 0.3%. In addition, the average peripheral blood glucose level was reduced by approximately 16%, and patient compliance with medication was increased by 25%. Project collaborator Ilhan Satman said in a statement: “There are 7 million people with diabetes in Turkey, which is roughly equivalent to the population of a medium-European country. In order to be able to connect closely with patients, minimizing human error. In our research Among them, Turkcell Medical is better able to adapt to medical treatment. We can conclude that mobile medical technology closely tracks patients' ability to better control blood sugar, blood pressure and blood lipid levels without excessive medication." Turkcell CEO Sureyya Ciliv said: "The number of diabetic patients in Turkey is increasing faster than in other countries in the world. Each year, Turkey spends about $6 billion on diabetes treatment. With this product, doctors can more accurately understand the treatment of patients. At the same time, more efficient use of resources to benefit the health care system."
