Abstract

This article provides a comprehensive review of diabetic technology in India. Researchers are persistently integrating novel technologies and enhanced medical knowledge to offer further avenues for improving the well-being of individuals with diabetes. Continuous patient engagement is essential by using highly effective technologies that address pertinent issues, as certain problems can be resolved with precision. India has a demographically large population, characterized by a substantial segment of individuals with diabetes. The estimated prevalence of diabetes in India is approximately 8%, with type 2 diabetes accounting for half of these occurrences. India’s per capita expenditure on health constantly falls behind that of other developing countries. Refined statistical data indicate that India’s healthcare expenditure is <50% of the average expenditure observed in the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries.
