OUR TEAM Name: Joey Green Name: Julian Klein Name: Nathan Atwood Name: Kenny Le Name: Beerjas Bath LAB 2 WRITE-UP Device Image and Description Technical and Clinical Feasibility Technical Feasibility a) What are the technologies needed? A software is required for the app so that it links through Bluetooth with the diabetic monitoring device. The app will need to have the capability to connect with the patient's physician and transmit data. b) What are the challenges? The challenges include finding a streamlined way to get the information from the app to the physicians as there are so many different company, networks, and providers. Some patients have multiple physicians so making sure the right information gets to the right person is the top priority. c) What could go wrong? There may be some incompatibilities between our software and the software of the physicians. This is an area we plan to research further as we do not know all of the technical logistics of data transmission. Clinical Feasibility a) Given the technical feasibility, would it work in the clinic? It would work in the clinic. The purpose of the device is to be an at-home diabetes testing kit that provides customers with the same value and service that they receive when they visit the doctor's office to complete an examination. If clinics would like they may also purchase the kit to use at their clinics as it does all of the major tests for diabetes. b) What are the clinical risks? The clinical risks would be at the home mainly as customers will be self-administering these tests. The risk involved is making sure that the customers are knowledgeable on how to properly use the different tests in the kit to complete the testing. We plan to include instructional videos on the app so that customers know exactly how to complete each test and make sure the information is sent to the provider. c) Have similar products been in a clinical trial? How long was the trial? There have been no similar products in a clinical trial that we were able to find.
