Abstract:
The main objective of POWER2DM is to develop and validate a personalized self-management support system (SMSS) for T1 and T2 diabetes patients that combines and integrates i) a decision support system (DSS) based on leading European predictive personalized models for diabetes interlinked with predictive computer models, ii) automated e-coaching functionalities based on Behavioral Change Theories, and iii) real-time Personal Data processing and interpretation. The SMSS offers a guided workflow based on treatment goals and activities where a periodic review evaluates the patients progress and provides detailed feedback on how to improve towards a healthier, diabetes appropriate lifestyle.
