青少年患有糖尿病会严重影响他/她的正常发育。移动技术可以减轻这种负面影响。我们希望向患有糖尿病的青少年及其父母了解，结合移动通信技术的监控系统如何可能有助于减少与测试相关的麻烦，提高依从性，并缓解青少年与父母在测试行为方面的冲突。我们招募了年龄在 13 至 18 岁之间、患有 1 型糖尿病的青少年及其父母作为焦点小组。焦点小组数据的定性分析遵循设定的程序。通过讨论，确定了以下主题：血糖监测问题和所需技术。所需技术的要素包括硬件要求、软件要求、通信和其他要求。该最终用户群体报告的需求可以帮助其他人最大限度地利用新技术和现有技术的能力来照顾患有慢性病的儿童。
The presence of diabetes in an adolescent can significantly affect his/her normal development. Mobile technology may offer the ability to lessen this negative impact. We wished to learn from adolescents with diabetes and their parents how monitoring systems that incorporated mobile communication technology could potentially help to reduce hassles associated with testing, improve compliance, and ease adolescent-parent conflict about testing behavior. We recruited adolescents between the ages of 13 and 18 years, living with type 1 diabetes mellitus and their parents for focus groups. Qualitative analysis of the focus group data followed a set procedure. From the discussions, the following themes were identified: issues with blood glucose monitoring and desired technology. Elements of desired technology included hardware requirements, software requirements, communication, and miscellaneous requirements. The reported needs of this end-user group can help others to leverage maximally the capabilities of new and existing technology to care for children managing chronic disease.
