Don’t forget to adjust the time on all your diabetes tech this weekend. If you forget basal rates will be off as well as unsuccessful downloads 👍

[DSNforumUK @DSNforumUK]

It’s that time of year again when summer is on its way... ☀️ 😎

Don’t forget if you are using any diabetes tech then you will need to adjust the times so you’re safe to use it! 👍🏻

This app looks amazing and will be useful in optimising diabetes management. Us HCP’s are battling with tech suppliers to use a single piece of of software for multiple devices. Shame the pwd would have to pay to get their data to their HCP for review @parthaskar @_diabetes101

[Diabetes:M @DiabetesM_App]

Hundreds of nurses, clinicians, and doctors monitor their patients remotely using @DiabetesM_App's Monitor system to improve their outcomes. Patient-centered care is the future, and we are ready, are you?

This is a great example of the ongoing mental burden of diabetes. We’ve been using the MyLife bolus calculator app for those unable to use their pump bolus advisor with Libre results. It’s really helping with improved control and removing some of the burden of calculations.

This is my most fave slide to show when I teach... lots of confused faces staring back.. 🤔

Never had anyone be able to answer!

I use it to say next time you’re judging someone for not being to target ..think about doing this 10 times a day!

This is very interesting. Did you know you could opt in to have your data included in Tidepool research? @_diabetes101

[Tidepool @Tidepool_org]

➡️ how can you help? 👍🏻
➡️ upcoming appts 👀

Type 1 technology progress is moving so quickly

[Kamil @nerdabetic]

With more interoperability than ever, it can be difficult to see which CGMs work/will work with which algorithms and insulin pumps. I created this diagram with all current partnerships. Clear interoperability leaders: @dexcom - 8 closed loops and @Diabeloop - 4 pump partners

Good to know that DUK have been contingency planning on behalf of the diabetes community, for the Brexit transition

[Diabetes UK @DiabetesUK]

1/6 Some of you might be feeling worried about insulin supplies in the next few months, in the event of any disruption caused by the end of the Brexit transition period, or by shipping restrictions related to coronavirus.

So much happening in the world of diabetes technology

[Tidepool @Tidepool_org]

When companies build an ACE pump, they build a pump with the potential to communicate with other pieces of the puzzle. Both @myomnipod and @TandemDiabetes have pumps labeled with the ACE distinction. Learn more about #diabetes interoperability: https://t.co/H62suJVbK0
