Diabetic Study

Paper Summary:

This study explores the effects of implementing a method that the current trend of technology may suggest in recording the daily activities of patients of diabetes. This study suggests the use of an online journal that allows the diabetics to record their daily consumption of foods, as well as the activities that they perform daily. Such types of records are important to physicians and diabetes specialists to provide them a scheme that allows them to monitor their patients' activities as related to their health. This study evaluates how an online journal can help and support the diabetes patients, as well as their doctors, in keeping an eye on their health condition. Comparing on the current manual method of recording activities, this study aims to assess the value of combining the treatment programs and processes taken by the diabetics with a health monitoring method that is more convenient and can be more interesting for the patients.

From the Paper:

"One of the routines that diabetes patients must perform is the recording of their food intakes and daily activities. This is important in order to compute the amount of calories, fat, etc., that they put in their body as well as how their body functions. Most of the diabetes patients, at present, perform this task manually. Such critical information and records are being written and are then brought in during clinical sessions. However, as found by some studies, and proven by the patients' response in bringing records of their daily activities and food consumptions, this process is rarely followed by the diabetes patients. Hence, as a consequence, the process of treating the illness does not become efficient and effective due to lack of reference on the patient's health and body functioning from which the succeeding medication and treatment is based."
