Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The study RADAR aims at developing a wearable based dysglycemia detection and warning system for patients with diabetes mellitus using artificial intelligence.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Other: Wearing smartwatch and continous glucose sensor

Detailed Description

Prior research has investigated the general potential of data analytics and artificial intelligence to infer blood glucose levels from a variety of data sources. In this study patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus will be wearing a continuous glucose meter (CGM) and a smartwatch for a maximum duration of 3 months in an outpatient setting. The gathered data will be used to develop a non-invasive and wearable based dysglycemia detection and warning system using artificial intelligence.
