Lat Bua Luang Hospital in Ayutthaya’s Lat Bua Luang district has unveiled an innovative Internet of Things (IoT) model aimed at enhancing diabetes care through real-time health data monitoring.
The use of IoT technology in diabetes care began as an initiative by the hospital, which developed a patient monitoring system that utilises IoT devices to track health indicators. It enables patients and doctors to access real-time data on the patient's condition. The devices used include blood glucose test strips, blood pressure monitors, thermometers, and weighing scales. In cases where abnormal health data is detected, the system alerts medical staff, allowing for prompt intervention and timely care.
Data collected through the connected devices is transmitted to the hospital's central system, enabling doctors to monitor patient health and adjust treatment plans in real time. With remote monitoring, doctors can manage symptoms and tweak medication without requiring the patient to visit the hospital.
