The annual incidence of diabetes-related death in Tokushima Prefecture has kept the highestin Japan since１９９２, except２００７. Such high incidence of death in diabetic patients might be relatedto renal failure and myocardial infarction. Therefore, we should make more effort to prevent diabeticmicro-and macro-angiopathy. Since the number of diabetologist was not enough to cover TokushimaPrefecture, most of diabetic patients were treated by family doctors. It is, therefore, important tocreate a bidirectional network for diabetes care between family doctors and diabetologists. We justhave been established a novel medical network for diabetic patients, so called“Tokushima MedicalNet”, in which family doctors and diabetologists easily communicate medical records in each otherusing by the cloud computing system. We believe that expansion of this network over TokushimaPrefecture could contribute to improve disease management and decrease advanced complicationsin diabetic patients.
