Abstract

Since 1996 there has been a national UK rise in the number of individuals diagnosed with diabetes from 1.4 million to 3.5 million. Figures are expected to continue to climb to over 5 million by 2025. To elevate incurred complication pressures arising from uncontrolled diabetes significant emphasis is being placed on supporting individuals to self-manage, via self-care technology. Patient attitude towards diabetes technology are favourable. However, utilisation of technology and effective self-management do not ubiquitously correlate.
