Abstract

The management of diabetes in clinical practice has many challenges: quickly interpreting a large volume of self-monitoring of blood glucose data, ensuring safe and accurate titration of basal insulin, managing patients on insulin pump therapy, and synthesizing glycemic data into actionable reports to improve patient outcomes. Technological advancements are emerging as a solution to some of these challenges. This article reviews mobile applications for insulin dosing, continuous glucose monitoring, insulin pump therapy, and smart insulin pens available for patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes.
