Abstract

Diabetes care requires the control of an extensive set of clinical and non-clinical variables which affect the metabolism of glucose in order to prevent acute complications (i.e. hypoglycemic episodes) and to reduce the risk of long-term ones. In this study, we present a clinical information system which records medical (clinical and laboratory) parameters related to Type 1 and 2 diabetes and, mainly, takes a significant step forward towards the collection of lifestyle data. In addition, the intuitive representation and the intelligent analysis of all these multi-parameter data enable the clinician to interpret the status of each patient and support him indirectly in the development of an effective individualized treatment plan.
