Patients enjoy Euglyca app, but concerns remain about effectiveness

Heather Rostron Senior research nurse, Leeds Children’s Hospital clinical research team at Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust

Self-care and individualised care in children and young people can be complex and intensive, for example with carbohydrate counting and logging physical activity, so the idea of having all the elements necessary for self-care contained in one app appears attractive. However, it is important to consider the safe and effective integration of technology into healthcare systems.
