Macadamian has developed a micro services-based IoT accelerator platform called Hive. To demonstrate itsx000D
potential in accelerating connected healthcare solutions, the company has embarked on the development of ax000D
concept called My Diabetes Coach in collaboration with the Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO).x000D
My Diabetes Coach is a novel solution to help youth with type 2 diabetes cope with and better manage theirx000D
disease through a companion mobile application and patient portal for access by their parents and clinicians.x000D
Diet, physical activity, sleep, stress, weight management, and medication adherence all play an important rolex000D
in mitigating the impacts of the disease but these can be daunting to manage for those living with diabetes, andx000D
often more so in a youth or young adults.x000D
In light of the above, My Diabetes Coach aims at assisting patients to manage their blood glucose withinx000D
specified target ranges. To this end, it is required to add smartness to the decision-making process byx000D
implementing powerful data analytics tools. This project targets the development of data analytics algorithmsx000D
in order to provide real-time decisions according to the patients' needs and healthcare provider's requirements.x000D
This project will provide Macadamian with the opportunity to integrate effective data analytics tools into theirx000D
platform to improve patient insights, engagement, and recommendations from their connected health solutionsx000D
built on the Hive platform.
