The IT arm of the Health Ministry, Integrated Health Information Systems (IHiS), and Singapore General Hospital (SGH) have developed a mobile app, SGH Diabetes Pal, to assist type 2 diabetes patients determine the amount of insulin they should inject at the appropriate time. The app is now being trialled to test its effectiveness.
On a daily basis, many type 2 diabetes patients who are new to insulin therapy are faced with the challenge of not knowing how much insulin to inject at the right time. One of the reasons is the lack of confidence to self-adjust insulin dosage without the doctor?s supervision. Delays in dose adjustment could lead to further diabetic complications.

Hmm...there are meters that already do this?
