Abstract:
:The World Wide Web now hosts a multitude of diabetes educational materials in various formats. Of particular interest is the diabetes/insulin tutorial available at the AIDA Website (accessible directly at: www.2aida.info). The tutorial combines textual or "static" information with an interactive diabetes simulator-AIDA online-to provide an engaging and effective educational tool. AIDA online (accessible directly at: www.2aida.net) enables the simulation of plasma insulin and blood glucose levels from user-defined insulin injection and carbohydrate intake data. A haemoglobin A1c value is also computed, giving an indication of overall blood glucose control in the virtual patient with diabetes. The diabetes/insulin tutorial is currently composed of four sections: the first two cover in considerable depth insulin injection regimens and insulin dosage adjustment; the third section introduces the principles of carbohydrate counting and, specifically, matching insulin doses to carbohydrate intake; and the fourth section illustrates the relationship between blood glucose levels and renal excretion of glucose. The simulator runs alongside the tutorial, and allows various concepts described in the text to be explored freely by the user and simulated interactively. This introduces a novel way of learning how injected insulin and dietary carbohydrate interact in various insulin injection regimens. A fifth section- for which any offers of assistance would be gratefully received-is planned. This will consider the use of insulin pumps and rapidly acting and very long-acting insulin analogues. Further improvements that may strengthen the existing tutorial and/or use of the online simulator are discussed in this column.
