The Time Thief

Every day, people with diabetes may spend hours on blood sugar monitoring, dose logging, and other self-management tasks. As clinicians, we can help patients integrate diabetes technology into their routine so they can make the most efficient use of their time.

Today, our cohosts share stories of time-management challenges with diabetes and how some digital health tools have helped their patients reduce their daily time commitment.

Topics include:

• Time spent on tasks other than glucose monitoring
• Saving time via CGMs, telehealth, and online pharmacies
• Diabetes burnout
• An app to help teens with diabetes and their caregivers in the transition to independent self-management
• How age at diagnosis may affect patients’ perception of diabetes
