Bilim ve teknolojideki ilerlemeler, kronik hastalıkların yönetimini ve kontrolünü kolaylaştırırken, bireylerin hastalık yönetiminde güçlenmesine olanak sağlamaktadır. Diyabetli bireylerin öz yönetimlerini artırmak ve güçlendirmek için bilişim teknolojileriyle desteklenmeleri önemlidir. Son yıllarda diyabet teknolojisi hızla gelişmiş ve yeni teknolojiler geliştirilmiştir. Bu geliştirilen teknolojiler; diyabetin etkin yönetimine, bireylerin yaşam kalitesinin artırılmasına ve hastalığın neden olduğu fiziksel, psikolojik, sosyal yüklerin azalmasına katkı sağlamıştır. Diyabetteki teknolojik ilerlemelerin temeli, sürekli deri altı insülin infüzyonu (CSII veya insülin pompası) ve sürekli glikoz izleme [continuous glucose monitoring (CGM)] sistemlerinin geliştirilmesi üzerinedir. CGM cihazları, implante edilebilir subkütan CGM sistemi, insülin pompası, insülin portu, hipoglisemi uyarı bilekliği, nazal glukagon gibi ürünler, diyabet teknolojisi içinde yer almaktadır. Bu cihazlara ek olarak, noninvaziv glikoz ölçümü sağlayabileceği düşünülen mikroinvaziv yama, hidrojel dövme, terden (gözlük ve bileklik) glikoz ölçümü, tükürükten glikoz ölçümü yapan biyosensörler, diş aksesuarları ve akıllı kontak lens ile glikoz ölçüm yöntemleri üzerine çalışmalar hâlâ devam etmektedir. Diyabet yönetiminde kullanılan ve üzerinde çalışmaların devam ettiği bu teknolojik gelişmeler, bireyin hastalığı üzerindeki kontrolünü, yaşam kalitesini ve konforunu artırmayı hedeflemektedir. Sağlık profesyonellerinin, teknolojik gelişmeler konusunda bilgi ve fikir sahibi olması, eğitim, danışmanlık rollerini yerine getirmesinde önemlidir. Ayrıca bu konudaki okumalar, çözümler için yeni fikirlere, kullanılan teknolojik ürünlerin özelliklerinin geliştirilmesine ya da farklı ürünlerin ortaya çıkarılmasına altyapı sağlayabilir.

Progresses in science and technology facilitate the management and control of chronic diseases, while enabling individuals to become stronger in disease management. It is important that individuals with diabetes are supported with information technologies to improve and strengthen their self-management. In recent years, diabetes technology improved rapidly, and new technologies were developed. These recently developed technologies have contributed to the effective management of diabetes, improving the quality of life of individuals and reducing physical, psychological and social burdens caused by the disease. Technological advances in diabetes arebased on the development of continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII or insulin pump) and continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems. Diabetes technology includes products such as CGM devices, implantable subcutaneous CGM system, insulin pump, insulin port, hypoglycemia stimulation wristband and nasal glucagon. In addition to these devices, studies are still ongoing on microinvasive patch, hydrogel tattoo, glucose measurement from sweat (glasses and wristband), biosensors measuring glucose from saliva, dental accessories and glucose measurement methods by smart contact lens, which are thought to allow for noninvasive glucose measurement. These technological advancements used in management of diabetes, which involve ongoing studies, aim to increase individuals control over the disease, their quality of life and comfort. It is important for health professionals to have knowledge and insight about technological advancements in fulfilling their training and consultancy roles. In addition, readings on this subject can provide infrastructure for new ideas for solutions, improvements of the features of the technological products used or discovery of different products.
