Abstract

Emerging adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D) often find it challenging to manage their diabetes well due to the many competing priorities they are juggling during this time. The majority of emerging adults (72%) are already looking for health information online, so telemedicine may be an avenue to explore with them. Telemedicine services for individuals with T1D are becoming increasingly popular and have been found to be beneficial for those who use them. However, there are very few multi-component telemedicine services available for individuals with T1D, and none of them provide a comprehensive technology-based system. Additionally, while these multi-component T1D telemedicine systems often included emerging adults in the group under study, the average age of the study subjects was usually above the age range of emerging adulthood. This suggests that specific developmental needs of emerging adults are not being addressed by these telemedicine systems, nor are the issues faced by diverse populations. More research needs to be done to address which telemedicine services, if any, would be beneficial for this especially vulnerable population.

新兴成人1型糖尿病患者的远程医疗服务
刚成年的1型糖尿病(T1D)患者经常发现要很好地控制自己的糖尿病很有挑战性,因为他们在这段时间里要处理许多相互竞争的优先事项。大多数新兴成年人(72%)已经在网上寻找健康信息,因此远程医疗可能是与他们一起探索的途径。为T1D患者提供的远程医疗服务正变得越来越受欢迎,并且已被发现对那些使用它们的人有益。然而,针对T1D患者的多组件远程医疗服务很少,而且没有一个提供全面的基于技术的系统。此外,虽然这些多组分T1D远程医疗系统通常在研究组中包括初成人,但研究对象的平均年龄通常高于初成人的年龄范围。这表明,这些远程医疗系统没有解决初生成人的特定发展需求,也没有解决不同人群面临的问题。需要进行更多的研究,以确定哪些远程医疗服务(如果有的话)将对这一特别脆弱的人群有益。
