Abstract

One of the diseases in which patients need intensive care and supervision is Diabetes and controlling the bold sugar level. In this paper, a telemedicine system is proposed to be used by diabetic patients for caring themselves, by which the patient may supervise and control his blood sugar level by his mobile phone. In this paper, first we would describe the system and compare its capabilities with common treatment methods and previous telemedicine systems. Then we would review one of the fundamental issues in telemedicine which is scalability, which is not usually mentioned in telemedicine systems and which may be solved by a general architecture of grid.
