    • The House of Carbs: Personalized Carbohydrate Dispenser for People with Diabetes 

      Randine, Pietro; Micucci, Daniela; Hartvigsen, Gunnar; Årsand, Eirik (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      Patients with diabetes are often worried about having low blood glucose because of the unpleasant feeling and possible dangerous situations this can lead to. This can make patients consume more carbohydrates than necessary. Ad-hoc carbohydrate estimation and dosing by the patients can be unreliable and may produce unwanted periods of high blood glucose. In this paper we present a system that ...
    • Including patient-generated health data in electronic health records – a solution for CGM-data 

      Randine, Pietro; Pape-Haugaard, Louise; Hartvigsen, Gunnar; Årsand, Eirik (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      Patients with diabetes and health personnel do not have an optimal way of interacting. Health personnel must use multiple ICT systems, such as third-party companies’ services, to access health-related data from diverse vendors’ CGM platforms and Electronic Health Record (EHR). Furthermore, other health-related data like physical activities, quality of life or well-being is often discussed but ...

      Randine, Pietro; Sharma, Aakash; Hartvigsen, Gunnar; Johansen, Håvard D.; Årsand, Eirik (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-04-29)
      Background: Medical consultations are often critical meetings between patients and health personnel to provide treatment, health-management advice, and exchange of information, especially for people living with chronic diseases. The adoption of patient-operated Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) allows the patients to actively participate in their consultation and treatment. The ...
    • Methods and Evaluation Criteria for Apps and Digital Interventions for Diabetes Self-Management: Systematic Review 

      Larbi, Dillys; Randine, Pietro; Årsand, Eirik; Antypas, Konstantinos; Bradway, Meghan; Gabarron, Elia (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-07-06)
      <i>Background</i>: There is growing evidence that apps and digital interventions have a positive impact on diabetes self-management. Standard self-management for patients with diabetes could therefore be supplemented by apps and digital interventions to increase patients’ skills. Several initiatives, models, and frameworks suggest how health apps and digital interventions could be evaluated, but ...
    • Privacy Concerns Related to Data Sharing for European Diabetes Devices 

      Randine, Pietro; Pocs, Matthias; Cooper, John Graham; Tsolovos, Dimitrios; Muzny, Miroslav; Besters, Rouven; Årsand, Eirik (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-11-13)
      Background: Individuals with diabetes rely on medical equipment (eg, continuous glucose monitoring (CGM), hybrid closed-loop systems) and mobile applications to manage their condition, providing valuable data to health care providers. Data sharing from this equipment is regulated via Terms of Service (ToS) and Privacy Policy documents. The introduction of the Medical Devices Regulation (MDR) and In ...
    • Towards a New Model for Chronic Disease Consultations 

      Randine, Pietro; Cooper, John Graham; Hartvigsen, Gunnar; Årsand, Eirik (Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2022-08-22)
      Medical consultations for chronic diseases form an arena to provide information from health personnel to patients. This information is necessary for patients to understand how to deal with the possible lifelong symptoms and needed self-management activities. The amount of patient-generated health data is increasing. Today’s patients gather an increasing amount of personalised health-related information. ...
