Evaluation of a Prototype Diabetes Management System Applied to Insulin Initiation and Titration
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Tablet Computer for Type II Diabetes. Completed, enrolled 40 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine if using a diabetes management technology system, including a tablet computer, to track diabetes care and communicate with a clinician coach (a doctor or nurse from the Joslin Clinic) makes starting and adjusting insulin easier and safer for people with type 2 diabetes. Hypothesis: The use of a diabetes management technology system with a clinician coach helps more individuals starting basal insulin achieve better glycemic control with less hypoglycemia compared with standard clinical practice at Joslin Diabetes Center.
