Fluent research project arises from the increasing prevalence of diabetes, both Type 1 and Type 2, and the need for personalised medicine approaches to enhance diabetes management and patient outcomes. 

Fluent Project at First Sight 

We, together with all diabetic people willing to take on the “Zero Time Out of Range” challenge, are pursuing an ambitious goal that demands a transformative shift in diabetes care. We believe this can only be realized through a deeply personalised approach tailored to each individual's unique needs. 

When it comes to children and adolescents, a truly personalised approach must extend beyond the individual. It must also engage and empower key figures in their lives—such as family members, teachers, and sports coaches—so they can actively contribute to achieving the goal while also easing the daily burden of diabetes management. 

How do we enable personalised diabetes care then? 

1. Personalised Blood Glucose Prediction 

From the outset, our research has centered on developing personalised blood glucose predictions as the key tool to shift from the traditional reactive approach to a new proactive model. We believe that empowering individuals with the ability to foresee their blood glucose response to a pattern of actions is essential for elevating diabetes management to a more advanced and effective level. 

It didn’t take long to realize that making blood glucose predictions readily accessible to people was equally important. A blood glucose prediction based on data that is hard to retrieve and/or provide to the algorithm wouldn't be very helpful for daily diabetes management. Therefore, we ventured into the mobile-health space to equip our prediction algorithm with the immediacy required for an effective use. The result of this journey is a mobile app called Fluent PrevYOU capable of delivering real-time personalised blood glucose predictions. 

2. Personalised Digital Therapy 

While developing the prediction algorithm, parallel efforts on its usability led to the possibility for the Caregiver Team to provide patients with therapy indications directly from within Fluent PrevYOU. As detailed in the Solution page, continuous therapy integration and delivery can enable unprecedent harmonization of medical treatment and diet with patient's lifestyle. The switch to digital therapy ensures that therapy is not only prescribed but also seamlessly integrated into daily routines. 

3. Support to Family, School, and Sport  

In case of youngsters, the extended Caregiver Team represented by family members, teachers, and sport coaches can also greatly benefit from the real-time prompts provided by the digital therapy implementation into Fluent PrevYOU to get guidance on how to help our guys to better manage their condition.
