Abstract
In this article, we present the first experience of developing a software program in Russia for calculating the diet and insulin dose for patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus. The software includes a central database for medical specialists and a smartphone application for patients and their guardians. Calculations are performed using parameters individual to each patient: target glycemia, insulin sensitivity factor, carbohydrate coefficient, food intake at a certain period of day. The competitive advantage, compared to foreign analogues, consists in the possibility of calculating the amount of active insulin. The database contains data on the chemical composition of more than 2500 products. The smartphone application is being tested in the Endocrinology Department of the Scientifi c Research Institute of Childhood of the Ministry of Health of Moscow Oblast with the participation of young patients and their guardians. For the “doctor–patient” interaction, the possibility of data exchange in the mode of telemedicine technologies is ensured.
