Winning Abstracts from the 2017 Medical Student Abstract Competition: Augmented Reality Presentation of Anatomical Variations: Example with Aberrant Right Subclavian Arteries
Blood glucose control for diabetics remains a difficult goal to achieve among patients, in particular because of inconsistent communication of blood glucose values to physicians outside of office visits. Blood glucose diaries have low compliance rates, and underlying socioeconomic issues, medication side effects, and medication non-compliance contribute to blood glucose control difficulties. To address these issues, we designed, implemented, and piloted an inexpensive automated text message (SMS) and phone communication system, EpxDiabetes, to aid in the management of Diabetes.
