Thank goodness for the dreamers and champions, for those who devote their time to find creative solutions and make life easier for others. Dr. Harold Goldberg, a doctor at the University of Washington, is such a person. He's currently working with game developers, with Nintendo at the lead, to create a web-based interface that reaches young people with diabetes where they are: on the phone or playing video games. An admitted gadget geek and parent of two young adults, Goldberg says the Game Cube interface is a logical next step from his work with adult diabetes patients through their desktop computers. With his idea, diabetes patients could test their own blood sugar and blood pressure using digital devices that can be connected to a computer, Game Cube or another Internet-ready device like a smart phone. The information would automatically be sent to the doctor's office. The interface (still in very early development stages) could also quiz the patients on other medical issues such as diet and exercise, could send reminders to teens to check their blood sugar and medical professionals will send feedback to the patients through the same system. Goldberg thinks the applications for such a device present wide-ranging possibilities for managing chronic illnesses: "The problem of fixing chronic disease care in this country is a huge one. I think it's a medical story of the millennium," Goldberg said.
