Healthcare providers are investing in new technologies to offer the patients suffering from diabetes with remote care.

FREMONT, CA: The healthcare sector is investing in the new RPM solutions to offer cost-effective treatment to chronic disease management. According to the market researchers, the demand for technologies will increase in diabetes management to provide continuous patient monitoring so that it becomes easy to manage high-risk patients suffering from chronic conditions, including diabetes.

Various factors are influencing the new trends in the healthcare sector, like digital innovations in diabetes treatment. Moreover, the increasing geriatric population with unhealthy diets is suffering from diabetes due to which such patients need self-involvement in the remote treatment for diabetes. The healthcare providers are also investing more in connected health so that they can prioritize quality value-based care and provide the patients with home self-monitoring with chronic disease.

Highly efficient technologies are being developed for remote monitoring, and it is estimated that the trend will increase in telehealth, artificial intelligence, mHealth, and IoT sectors.

WHAT ARE THE LEADING SOLUTIONS FOR DIGITAL DIABETES MANAGEMENT?

Various innovative healthcare solutions have already been developed and launched by digital companies that can reduce the growth of diabetes. Here are some of the technologies that can be used by healthcare facilities to provide better care to the patients.

DIABETES TRACKING DEVICES

There are various diabetes technologies available in the market, like software, applications, and hardware, and they are drastically enhancing the lifestyle and health of people with diabetes. People suffering from diabetes mellitus can receive in-home care due to connected health instead of visiting the hospitals.

Three types of remote diabetes monitoring devices can transfer data to clinicians and offer home healthcare. The devices are glucose and blood pressure monitoring sensors, insulin delivery devices, and hybrid closed-loop systems.

MONITORING DEVICES

Smart blood pressure monitoring devices can decrease the risk of heart failures because of high blood pressure. The solution can simplify healthcare management by combining traditional devices with modern technologies to monitor blood pressure continuously. it can also manage wireless data transfer and provide individual results through mobile applications.

The glucose monitoring devices are glucose sensors that can be utilized for measuring blood sugar levels. It can also collect patient-generated health information (PGHD) and transfer data to the medical devices. Furthermore, mHealth is also helping to increase the number of RPM devices that combine cellular connectivity.
