Growing Awareness Regarding Diabetes Self-Management Solutions Drives the Digital Diabetes Management Market

Diabetes self-management is considered a cornerstone of diabetes care and plays an important role in preventing micro and macrovascular complications. Self-management of diabetes includes diabetes education, healthy eating, physical activity, medication, device usage, monitoring and using patient-generated data to adjust behavior and medication doses, preventing, detecting, and treating acute and chronic complications, coping with psychosocial issues, and problem-solving. With the help of digital tools, people with diabetes can gain more power over their disease self-management. Care can also become less intimidating with automated and easy-to-use tools. To increase awareness, several players and governments of various countries are running awareness campaigns/training.

For instance,

• Diabetes Self-Management Training (DSMT) Certification is an evidence-based standard of care program that incorporates the needs and goals of people with diabetes into a personalized plan that has proven to improve health outcomes. These standards have been approved by The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, CMS
• Diabetes Self-Management Education and Support (DSMES) services provide information and skills for people to manage their diabetes and related conditions
• World Diabetes Day (WDD) is the world's largest diabetes awareness campaign reaching a global audience of over 1 billion people in more than 160 countries
• The month of November has been designated as National Diabetes Awareness Month to boost awareness regarding types of diabetes, risk factors, and symptoms involved with diabetes.

Role of mHealth in Digital Diabetes Management Market Boosts the Industry Demand

Diabetes is the most popular chronic clinical condition targeted by mHealth, followed by depression and asthma. Mobile health (mHealth) tools have enhanced diabetes management and prevention and are likely to play an increasing role with the growth of smartphone ownership and medical device innovations. Recent mHealth interventions targeting type 1 and type 2 diabetes are diverse in their goals and components including insulin management applications, wearable blood glucose meters, automated text messages, health diaries, and virtual health coaching.

For instance,

• In May 2021, F. Hoffmann-la Roche teamed up with Ellerca Health to launch Accu-Chek + 360Care, integrating Roche’s Accu-Chek Guide blood glucose meter, customized home delivery of testing strips, and Ellerca’s self-management digital program, 360Care, which enables patients to manage their treatment schedule with access to a bunch of health coaches.
