Abstract

The implementation of mobile health interventions is key to the future management of diabetes. A new model of digital care for type 2 diabetes using a Bluetooth-enabled blood glucose monitoring system has been implemented at the Princess Alexandra Hospital. The perceptions of patients, healthcare professionals, and executives involved in the implementation of this model have been assessed to establish the key facilitators and barriers to digital health intervention adoption.
