Personalizing Self-management in Diabetes - Pilot Study

GlucoType is an mobile Health intervention for facilitating self-management in T2DM built for iPhone and Android smartphones. GlucoType includes a custom-built interface for low-burden capture of diet and blood glucose (BG) levels and relies on a commercial activity tracker, FitBit, for capture of sleep and physical activity. It then applies computational phenotyping techniques to identify patterns of associations between daily activities and changes in BG levels. GlucoType uses an expert system developed by our research team to translate identified phenotypes into automatically-generated personalized behavioral goals for improving glycemic control formulated in natural language.
