Summary

The study aims to validate the clinical efficacy of a telemedicine- and web-based system platform for Self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) data transmission and analysis in terms of improved metabolic control, assessed by measuring changes in HbA1c, in insulin-treated diabetic patients. The system platform involves (i.) systematic (real-time and anywhere) transmission of SMBG data to a decision supported software (DSS)-assisted server, (ii.) web-based analysis of data, and (iii.) feedback on patients and medical staff to implement metabolic control. The expected outcome is that using this telemedicine-based system with transmission of SMBG data, web-based analysis of data and medical feedback to patients and medical team will improve glucose control in insulin-treated individuals with type 1 or type 2 diabetes mellitus.

PROCEDURE

Use of software-implemented glucometer for real-time collection and transmission of measured glucose values to remote server.

Device is a smartphone-connected glucometer. The smartphone will be implemented with a software for real-time collection and transmission of measured glucose values to the remote server. Thus, the glucometer will be made "hot" for real-time and anywhere data transmission. In addition, at the time of blood glucose measuring, the patient will enter information on whether the measurement is being performed in the pre-prandial, post-prandial or absorptive periods, and will indicate which meals the measurement refers to (i.e., breakfast, lunch, dinner, snack). SMBG results will be immediately transmitted to the remote server, which will perform data collection and analysis, and provide feed-back to the patient and the medical staff according to pre-defined specific algorithms (Decision Supported Software, DSS).

PROCEDURE

Use of regular glucometer
