Core Tip

Core Tip: Increasing number of applications and devices based on artificial intelligence are being tested and approved for medical care. These devices have the potential to change the way we presently manage chronic diseases like diabetes. Moreover, their application in data rich and dynamic intensive care unit environment may have great implications in detecting hypo or hyperglycemia and reducing glycemic variability, while improving safety and accuracy and reducing nursing workload. Devices like artificial pancreas and continuous glucose monitoring regulated insulin infusion systems have shown promise as comprehensive glucose control solutions and may change the future of care for critically ill diabetic patients.
