UTS Helps Diabetics Track Levels on iPhone

Posted: 22 Jun 2009 01:22 AM PDT

We've been covering a number of different iPhone apps lately, and we felt we should mention the Universal Tracking System for glucose tracking that was one of the submissions to the Diabetes Mine Design Contest a few months ago.

Features from the product page:

Glucose records are colored according to their value levels. High levels of glucose are highlighted in red and marked with a red alert sign. This allows you to quickly find peak levels. The most important records are also marked with a special sign.
Adding a new record is simple, as no typing is required for entering a glucose level value.

In addition to blood glucose, you can also track carbohydrates, insulin and medications.

The various different types of charts will help you control all factors affecting your health. The colored background shows whether or not your glucose level is in the dangerous, normal or optimal zone. The iPhone multi-touch technology allows the chart to be easily scaled and scrolled. Also you can compare your glucose level versus your
insulin injections, carbohydrates or medication intakes. All data points on charts are touchable and provide detailed hints. All charts are highly customizable.

The UTS Diabetes also provides reports that show your summarized statistics for the specified period of time.

A unique feature of the UTS Diabetes application is the ability to synchronize your data with your online account on UTSHealth.com and optionally to share your data with your doctor, parents, children, friends, support group members, or any person of your choice.

Here's a demo video originally submitted to the Diabetes Mine Design Contest...
