Gamification has been a buzzy idea in health tech for years as founders created new ways to use the tools and ideas from games to change health behaviors. This week on StartUp Health NOW, we're talking to two founders in the StartUp Health community who are uniquely gamifying the healthcare experience–one to improve mental health through cognitive bias modification and one to make #T1D care more enjoyable. #T1DMoonshot Arcade Therapeutics, eddii, Raj Amin, Farhaneh A.
Today marks an exciting milestone for eddii 🍃 We're very happy to share that our clinical outcomes paper has been published in the Journal of Diabetes Science and Technology (JDST), presenting significantly promising findings for our first users! https://lnkd.in/dBhnhaaK Health outcomes showed 5.38% extra time in range (TIR) for eddii users, translating to 1.5 extra hours per day, and a 5.8% lowered time above range (TAR)! Read the paper to discover how eddii is making daily diabetes management an effortless and rewarding experience. We're excited and determined to continue this success as we grow, developing an even more impactful user experience on eddii, and doubling down on our user-favorite features. eddii integrates with Dexcom CGMs and gamifies real-time glucose data. #eddii #t1d #t2d #cgm #diabetesmanagement #games

Last week in the 'T1Dictionary' we explored ‘Confidence with T1D’ and the art of being ‘Characteriffic'. This week, we're hearing from a slightly different perspective. Mason Koffie rounds off #NationalDiabetesMonth with an 'UMPH', or should we say #pUMPH, sharing her current experience of living with 'T1D at school!' https://lnkd.in/e_6cqCr5
Last week, in eddii's T1Dictionary series, we explored 'Commyounity'. This week, we're discussing confidence with T1D, and the art of being 'Characterrific'! https://lnkd.in/ed6ncZ8g
