More than 400 million people worldwide have diabetes. Devices like insulin pens, continuous glucose monitors and insulin pumps are crucial to avoid hospital visits, but they don’t provide the comprehensive support many diabetes patients need to manage their condition.
That’s where digital solutions can make a significant difference on a global scale.
UNEVEN AND INCONSISTENT DOSE MANAGEMENT
Diabetes patients’ health is dependent on careful tracking of glucose levels, and this can represent a significant challenge for patients.
LIMITED PATIENT-PROVIDER COMMUNICATION
With 95% of diabetes disease management done by the patient, providers often have limited real-time visibility into how well a patient is managing their condition between appointments.
POOR ADHERENCE
Nearly half of patients with diabetes do not achieve adequate glycemic control. Poor medication adherence is a key factor leading to higher-than-necessary rates of morbidity and mortality.
DISPARATE DATA SOURCES
Even when patients use digital devices, they often have to manually document their blood glucose data to share with their doctors, who are juggling disparate data sources across their patient population.
Addressing the growing diabetes epidemic takes more than best-in-class medicines alone. We need to engage with people on their level and integrate with the solutions they are already using to manage their diabetes."

Diabetes patient health is dependent on careful tracking of glucose levels. Auto-titration offers immediate updates to dosing, with early detection of missed doses or overdosing.
BrightInsight’s Patient App supports patients in their diabetes management, guiding them through connected device set-up, monitoring glucose levels, updating insulin dosage, and more.
Integrating data from apps and connected devices, such as continuous blood glucose meters and smart insulin pens can improve diabetes care.
BrightInsight’s Clinician Portal application allows communication and collaboration between patients and their providers, and can improve care with real-time data sharing.
