Technological innovations have transformed the way diabetes is handled, allowing those who live with diabetes leading a healthier and higher quality life.From continuous glucose monitoring systems to insulin pumps and digital solutions, advances have demonstrated their positive impact on health and well -being.

However, access to these tools remains unequal in many regions.Factors such as the Autonomous Community in which you live, the reference hospital or even the economic situation can determine whether or not you have access to technology that could make a big difference in your quality of life.

Diabetes requires personalized attention and innovative solutions.Therefore, it is essential that health systems guarantee equitable access to technological tools, prioritizing their impact on the results in health and autonomy of people with diabetes.

Investment in technology not only improves the quality of life, but also helps create a more efficient and sustainable health system.

It is time to boost a change.

We need more than innovation: we need this innovation to reach all people with diabetes, without barriers or differences.

What has been your experience with diabetes technology?

Do you think access is just for everyone?

My experience with technology ... I pay everything, strips, glucometers, sensors ... because yes, I am not insulin -dependent or I have had hypos that have made me admitted at least 48 hours, three in one year ... with me, as I have overweight for other hormonal problems and by the corticosteroids that I had to take for some respiratory conditions, they tell me type 2High in Endocrinology was in November 2019 and the last words he told me were until you lose the 30 kg that you have left over I do not want to see you again here ...
