Abstract

Presuming that diabetes care is best provided via an insulin pump, how to manage the majority who cannot afford a pump financially or technically? Despite that paediatric diabetologists are using the 500 &100 adult diabetes rules, there are safety concerns in children esp. toddlers. So, there is a need to develop child-specific intensive insulin therapy.

Methods: Biological variables like age, size, lifestyle, food, insulin, exercise, glycaemia & weather…etc. will be identified. Pharmaco-kinetic principles would be applied to them. Their mathematical correlations equations will be derived for various ages.

Results: Most bio-variables regression equations were used in one software programme. At diagnosis, a provisional plan utilises little information (info (plus estimates of missing info. With each contact, the child’s care plan is tailored to the growing parameters. The DAM plan is visually enhanced green, amber & red care levels is sent to the carer’s Smart-Device to follow.

Conclusion: The Diabetes Auto Manager used over a dozen bio-variables to instantly tailor care plans for all children even with pumps. Mathi-Medics can unravel the multifactorial diabetes control that may pave the way for the insulin pump that predicts more and wirelessly transmits less.
