Study summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if telecare using modern telecommunication devices can improve the metabolic control and the quality of life of type 1 diabetic patients.

Read the detailed description

We aim at comparing conventional follow-up of type 1 diabetic patients treated with continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) (face-to-face visits) with an intensive coaching using the Web and the cellular phone network for data transmission and Short Message Service (SMS). This telecommunication device is called GlucoNet. The specific objectives are to measure the efficiency of GlucoNet in improving metabolic control, reducing health care costs and improving the quality of life of patients.
