Diabetes monitoring: human out of the loop

Invent Health #S2E1

Speak to any one of the world’s 415 million diabetic patients and they will tell you what a burden the constant level of monitoring and treatment delivery of the serious condition can be. Despite the advances in monitoring and delivery technologies, the burden of continuously tracking and adjusting your treatment is greater than you might think. So, what if you are able to take this challenge away from patients?

In this first episode of Invent:Health Season 2, Matt Parker speaks to Chris Dawson, Head of Biosensing at TTP, and Dr. Andrew Chapman, CEO, and Co-Founder of Carbometrics, to explore how patients can be taken out of this monitoring-delivery loop and what technologies are out there that can automate the process entirely.
