No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study compares the medical and psychological effects of telemonitoring plus intensified self-management support to those of usual care alone for patients with poorly controlled type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). If this intervention proves effective without increasing costs or clinician burden, then its implementation could yield major public health benefits, especially for vulnerable and underserved DM patients, and broader societal benefit may occur through increased helping behavior and strengthened social ties.
