MESSAGE FROM THE
CHEENY KUM BOARD
"The key to preventing a global diabetes catastrophe lies in managed care with real-time biofeedback & improved compliance from diabetics and care-givers. Having introduced the managed care program, the management of Cheeny Kum now endeavors to bring advanced solutions like non-invasive blood sugar monitors, advanced mobile applications and non-invasive insulin delivery systems to benefit all stakeholders."
Dr. Viral Shah
Director
"Living with diabetes is like living in prison. What is more, in this case, the patient is an
uncontrolled inmate & the doctor is a helpless warden. This is one mess that needs an organized
mass application."
Dr. Ankit Khambhati
Director
"Diabetes is most definitely the next global crisis. Its impact on global economies will be more disturbing than that of 'global warming' or 'the fight against terror'. We must take preventive measures in unison."
The Diabetes
Support Team
Cheeny Kum’s Diabetes Support Team helps patients to understand diabetes better and make lifestyle management choices. Each member of the team is committed to help patients in making the correct food choices, motivate them to incorporate physical activity into their routine and use their medications effectively. With "Real-time monitoring" tools, the Diabetes Support Team assesses blood sugar levels, diet, activity & medications and uses the results to improve diabetes control and assist patients & their doctors to prevent and treat high and low blood glucose levels. This in turn reduces the risks of diabetes complications. The graphs and trends of blood sugar readings, diet, activity and medications are shared with other healthcare professionals to achieve diabetes goals, good health and well being. The members of Cheeny Kum’s Diabetes Support Team are qualified nutritionists with Post Graduation in Clinical Nutrition and Dietetics with specialization in “Diabetes and Cardiac Care”. Also, the team is supported by a specialist
panel comprising of a physician, podiatrist, cardiologist, urologist, eye specialist, physical therapist

Diabetes - a serious global threat
It is now well documented that diabetes is increasing globally in epidemic proportions across all age groups. According to recent WHO estimates, approximately 438 million people worldwide (7.8%) in the 20–79 year age group will have diabetes by 2030.
India - the diabetes capital of the world
According to the INDIAB study which was started under the support of the Indian Council for Medical Research (ICMR) by the Madras Diabetes Research Foundation and regional collaborators, the number of people with diabetes in India is currently around 62.4 million and has increased by 11 million in just one year. For every person with diabetes there is one person with pre-diabetes with the number of people with pre-diabetes estimated to be 77.2 million. It is estimated that the total number of people with diabetes in India will be rising to 87.0 million by 2030.
Shift in age of onset of diabetes
An increasing early age of onset combined with increasing prevalence of diabetes is of great concern because if the epidemic shifts to children it could have serious consequences on the health of the nation.
A chronic disease like diabetes, if not treated properly, can cause serious problems such as kidney failure, lower limb amputations, blindness, heart disease, strokes and nerve damage. Proper monitoring with real-time patient data is the key to managing the condition and preventing life-altering complications that could be the cause of serious economic burden- individual & global.
