This case study is based on the practicum hours spent with a patient, Mr. Mathew, aged 45 years, male with a history of diabetes for the past twenty years as a nursing student. Apart from being a genetic disorder, work stress played a part in development of diabetes. His condition and the medication regime were discussed in detail in this therapy. I provided him with the care plan which includes the involvement of a medical team. The use of technology was an important part of the care plan formulated (Fallon et al., 2022).

My main area of concern in this assessment will be to describe the level of care, care coordination, resource utilization and the role of technology in managing and monitoring diabetes with special reference to the case of Mr. Mathew.

Impact of Healthcare Technology on Patient with Diabetes

In the conversation with Mr. Mathew, I was able to describe and discuss the usage and efficacy of the medical devices that are used in diabetes control, namely glucose measuring apparatus or the digital glucometer and wearable devices to monitor the fluctuations in glucose level over 24 hours such as smart watches or fitness trackers etc. Additionally, the use of the
