Effect of Smartphone Based Telemedicine and Education in Patients With Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus

January 21, 2021 updated by: Yonsei University

Objective: evaluation of effect of smartphone based telemedicine and education in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus Outline: Among the patients with type 1 diabetes, the group with telemedicine and education using smartphone set as a experimental group and the group without those set as a control group, respectively.

Sample size: experimental group (n=50), control group (n=50) Inclusion criteria: patients with type 1 diabetes with A1c>8.0% Exclusion criteria: chronic disease, psychological disease, children aged under 12 with parents with psychological disease, athletics Method: We divide subjects as an experimental group and a control group by randomization, and they visit outpatient clinic every 12 weeks. We perform telemedicine and education with smartphone application to the experimental group every 2 weeks. We evaluate the effect of smartphone based telemedicine and education in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus with checking A1c and checklist at baseline, 12 weeks and 24 weeks after starting of the research.

Variables: A1c, satisfaction, knowledge, self-confidence, willing to continuing, quality of life, physical activity, drinking, smoking Primary endpoint: Improvement in HbA1c of experimental group Secondary endpoint: No improvement in HbA1c of control group
