iDiabCare – new mobile application to help monitor diabetics’ health

Through the 3D immersive online platform “Smart City Taiwan 360”, the Industrial Development Bureau (IDB) will showcase the solutions for smart cities developed by Taiwanese companies, as well as Taiwan’s leadership and technological capabilities.

The innovations that are being presented fall into categories such as Mobility, Governance, Healthcare, 5G, and more. Among the solutions that stand out the most in terms of Smart Healthcare, is the new mobile application to help monitor diabetics’ health.

Diabetes is a global issue. The number of people diagnosed with this disease increased from 108 million in 1980 to 422 million in 2014. In 2020, the amount reaches 463 million people affected by the disease. This situation makes diabetes the health issue that has grown the most so far this century.

Not only has the incidence increased, but also the mortality. Between 2000 and 2016, there has been a 5% increase in premature mortality from diabetes. To help combat it, Taiwanese solution provider has developed iDiabCare, an application that helps patients control their health and thus manage their diabetic symptoms.
