O app FeeStyle Libre was a success in the area of diabetes control.
You need to put a small sensor on your arm and check your blood sugar in real time through a scanner.
Best apps to measure glucose and diabetes on your smartphone.
The new system was developed by Abbott and enhanced with the development of mobile applications.
The purpose of this application is to detect blood sugar indirectly to possible glucose control.
Have you ever thought about monitoring your blood sugar levels without having to take a drop of blood from your body? Here's a new method for monitoring.
How does this application work?
When the user places the index finger under the phone's camera flash, the app checks pulse. In this way, the heart rate can be obtained through the pulse wave.
During the study period, the results of measurements from more than 54,000 people who reported having diabetes were compared. Therefore, the inequality in pulse waveform between people with and without this disease can be detected.
The next step is to compare different blood glucose waveforms and glycosylated hemoglobin levels in another group of patients.
Therefore, the main objective of application FreeStyle Libre is to “train” it so that it can capture different glucose levels directly from the wave, thus being able to establish a relationship between the two indicators.
The coolest thing about FreeStyle Libre app is that you can visualize your blood sugar changes on a user-friendly graph and then take steps to improve your diabetes control. “It increases the patient’s capacity. If you use this technology just to avoid pricking your finger, I think it’s expensive,” said Couri.
