Abstract

This paper reports on a collaborative project between clinicians at the Ulster Hospital and researchers at the University of Ulster to produce a Web-based system for monitoring patients with Type 2 diabetes. The typical method of recording measurements of weight, blood sugar, and blood pressure allows for minimal intervention for the consultants as the paper-based records can only be reviewed at three monthly intervals. The new system allows the patients to use their own phone to input and record their measurements using speech, while the web-based view allows consultants to monitor these patients on a daily basis and to respond to alerts generated by the system. Patients could access their own readings in a tabular form and graphically via the Internet.
