Abstract
This article presents the design of a technological platform called MedicHand, composed of a functional prototype of an electronic bracelet, and web system, elements which, together, allow for control the supply of medication to people who suffer from diabetes. In the first part, the problem Diabetes Mellitus (DM) for the immune system is discussed, as well as the situation of the medical treatments associated with this disease and the current medical trends. In the same way, the technologies involved in the construction of the device, the components that integrate the technological platform, the communication protocol and the design of the bracelet are described.
