"The aim of the ABLE DOC project is to improve the self-management of health among people with diabetes in Colombia. This is important because the number of adults with diabetes in Colombia was estimated at nearly 3 million in 2017 by the International Diabetes Federation, with associated health costs of over 2 billion USD.The project goal will be achieved by conducting a feasibility study to evaluate the potential of an avatar-based educational programme to improve awareness and understanding of the condition, the effects of treatment, and strategies for effective management. The activities through which this study will be achieved include:1) A human-centred design study, conducted among Colombian clinicians and people with diabetes, in order to fully understand the local problems and current educational practices.2) Interdisciplinary research to understand which blood glucose patterns could be most appropriate to respond to explore whether an AI system could potentially recommend training material by analysing those patterns.3) Development and delivery of a pilot avatar-based programme for diabetic patients in Colombia focusing on one identified intervention from the design study.Each of these activities will be supported by an experienced project management team. The work will culminate in the production of a final business plan for implementation. The plan will include the user feedback from the pilot programme, market potential, validation of end-user needs, route to commercialisation and proposed stakeholder engagement plan.The project has potential for multiple impacts in Colombia. Research indicates that the long-term complications associated with diabetes are preventable by optimising glycaemic control, and this project will make a huge difference to such health outcomes by offering timely and trusted clinical information so that individuals can achieve good control safely. This aligns with the targets of UN Sustainable Development Goal 3, which focuses on good health and well-being."

CABLE DOC项目的目的是改善哥伦比亚糖尿病患者的自我健康管理。这一点很重要，因为据国际糖尿病联合会估计，2017年哥伦比亚成人糖尿病患者人数接近300万人，相关的医疗费用超过20亿美元。项目目标将通过开展可行性研究来实现，以评估基于化身的教育方案的潜力，以提高对病情、治疗效果和有效管理战略的认识和了解。将开展这项研究的活动包括：1)在哥伦比亚临床医生和糖尿病患者中开展以人为中心的设计研究，以充分了解当地的问题和当前的教育做法；2)进行跨学科研究，以了解哪些血糖模式最适合应对，以探索人工智能系统是否可以通过分析这些模式来潜在地推荐培训材料。3)在哥伦比亚为糖尿病患者制定和实施一个试点化身方案，重点是设计研究中确定的一种干预措施。每项活动都将由经验丰富的项目管理团队提供支持。这项工作的最终结果将是制定一份供执行的最后业务计划。该计划将包括试点计划的用户反馈、市场潜力、最终用户需求的确认、商业化路线和拟议的利益相关者参与计划。该项目可能在哥伦比亚产生多重影响。研究表明，通过优化血糖控制，与糖尿病相关的长期并发症是可以预防的，该项目将通过提供及时和可信的临床信息，使个人能够安全地实现良好的控制，从而对此类健康结果产生巨大影响。这与联合国可持续发展目标3的目标一致，该目标侧重于良好的健康和福祉。
