Particularly in the current environment, with many consultations now being provided by telehealth, these platforms greatly facilitate our access to client’s diabetes management data, allowing for more in-depth interpretation and precise management advice. Any diabetes care provider, public or private, can create their own data sharing platform account and invite their clients to share their diabetes data.


Data sharing platforms allow people with diabetes and their caregivers to easily access diabetes related data in their personal data platforms and to share this data with their diabetes health professional(s). They can store, analyze and collate the data into useable and insightful formats including averages, graphs, patterns and comparisons between different time periods. They are web-based platforms that that collect data directly from a diabetes management system, such as blood glucose meters, insulin pumps and continuous glucose monitors. She believes type 1 should not hold anyone back in any way, and supports her patients to dream big.ĭiabetes data sharing platforms are the equivalent of a central intelligence centre.
