org/diabetes-basics/statistics? The main purpose of this article is to provide a detailed report on the overall number of persons who suffered from diabetes and prediabetes. This report was compiled in 2015 from hospital reports on the number of people who were diabetic or prediabetes. Although the data was mainly obtained from different hospital reports, hence the mode of data collection was mainly through patient particulars with respect to the type of diabetes they suffered. The main strength of using this report is based on its ability to capture statistic on all patients that were admitted to a particular hospital within a given period. Its only limitation is that it does not capture diabetic patients who did not go to any particular hospital. org/10. pcd12. The purpose of this article is to examine the extent by which technological advancement in mobile technology is applied in developing mobile applications for diabetes health literature.

The study identifies the diabetes literate features in mobile apps with a view of highlighting the impending costs. It was done through a careful review of diabetes keywords, which identified diabetes related apps in the operating system of most of the phones. The research was conducted through a search on online databases; there were 196 results from the databases, out of which 13 met the required criterion. Dearholt, S. E.

The main purpose of this study was to develop and test a mobile phone-based tool that captured and visualized the eating habits of adolescence through their food take. It was to affect a proper understanding of carbohydrate counting and to foster the relationship between adolescents and the doctor during their daily treatment.

It was to foster an analysis of the designed tool concerning self-efficacy, self-treatment and empowerment. The study concluded that on implementation of visual tools, it was an important contribution to the adolescents in understanding the basics of diabetes. Stevens, K. Lowson, K. Offer, C. Watson, J.

Ten adolescents who were obese at the Temple Street Children’s University Hospital were enrolled to the program.

They were then give eight tasks to perform in order to test the efficiency of the apps. Mobile phone technology is currently being used to improve the patient-nurse communication. It is also a significant pillar in monitoring health outcomes especially in chronic diseases. This innovation in technology is expected to escalate over time mainly in community management of heart disease, cancer, diabetes and asthma. Skårderud, F.

It also assessed the medical records of the patients that were mainly integrated with the clinical information systems to provide a timely support to patients with chronic diseases via bidirectional text messaging. This was to analyze on how mobile phones can be used to accelerate a patient’s self-management of chronic diseases.
