Abstract

Aims: Most glucose self-monitoring devices have been developed with high-income countries in mind. We developed a target product profile (TPP) for new glucose self-monitoring technologies for users in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Methods: A draft TPP including 39 characteristics was developed by an expert group including diabetes specialists, device specialists, and people with diabetes, incorporating findings from qualitative research in LMICs. Each characteristic had minimal and optimal requirements for two use cases, frequent and sporadic use. Characteristics requiring refinement were identified via online survey. Characteristics with agreement level
