Roberto and Arancha are a deaf couple and have two deaf children. Leo, their youngest son, was diagnosed with diabetes at the age of 4.
For them, from night to dawn are very difficult hours, because they are deaf people and cannot control the drops in blood sugar. They suffer from Leo having hypoglycemia and not being able to hold out until the next morning. In case of suffering from one, the glucose meter warns them with a beep, but because they are deaf they do not perceive the sound that the meter emits.
What solution did they find?
They woke up every night every two hours to check Leo’s glucose level. A situation of exhaustion and unbearable anxiety, given that they were afraid that just when they went back to sleep, Leo would suffer a rise in glucose.
What solution did Visualfy provide you?
Visualfy technology allowed them to link the alarm system with the glucose meter and the App notified them through visual alerts on their mobile devices in case Leo suffered hypoglycemia.
