Avatar Based LEarning for Diabetes Optimal Control (ABLE DOC)

“ABLE 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年哥伦比亚成年糖尿病患者人数接近300万，相关医疗费用超过20亿美元。该项目的目标将通过进行可行性研究来实现，以评估基于化身的教育计划的潜力，以提高对病情的认识和理解，治疗效果，有效管理的战略。本研究将通过以下活动实现：1）在哥伦比亚临床医生和糖尿病患者中进行以人为本的设计研究，以充分了解当地问题和当前的教育实践。2）跨学科研究，以了解哪些血糖模式最适合响应，以探索人工智能系统是否可以通过分析这些模式来推荐培训材料。3）为哥伦比亚糖尿病患者开发和提供基于化身的试点计划，重点关注设计研究中确定的一种干预措施。这项工作最终将产生一项供执行的最后业务计划。该计划将包括试点方案的用户反馈、市场潜力、最终用户需求的验证、商业化途径和拟议的利益攸关方参与计划。研究表明，与糖尿病相关的长期并发症是可以通过优化血糖控制来预防的，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，从而对这些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。"

"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."
