In this page (still under construction) you find a series of links to interesting sites, discussions, products or communities that we see related with the TiY design-concept and with how it can be extended in the future. Links are grouped under different topics and often refer to more extensive post in this blog.
General Diabetes Stats:
Patients' online communities and social networks (e.g. where Tags, sections of the TiY log or of the TiY graphs could be shared and commented by peers and other experts):
Patient Blogs:
- List of Diabetes popular blogs
Personal Health Record (PHR):
- MyPHR
Devices and products that could be linked with specific Tags thus creating a TiY's Internet of things further improving self-monitoring and data-sharing practices:
- Body Sensor network measuring physical activities (e.g. Tag 'sport')
- Whiting wireless smart scale and blood-pressure monitor (e.g. Tag 'weight' or 'blood pressure')
- Improved Image processing algorithms for the diagnosis of skin cancer and/or wounds (e.g. Tag 'skin wounds')
- Wireless PHR monitor By Proteus Biomedical (e.g. tag 'heart rate')
- Urine Meter by Flowsense (e.g. Tag 'Ketones')
- Vitality's GlowCaps (e.g. Tag 'Tablets')
- CameraPhone app analyzes your meal (e.g. Tag 'carbs' o 'snacks')
New diabetes related technology that could extend the TiY platform improving self-management and self-care in diabetes:
- Implantable blood sugar sensor (e.g. automatic continuous monitoring)
