Using the vista 350 telephone to communicate the results of home monitoring of diabetes mellitus to a central database and to provide feedback
Abstract
Purpose Self-monitoring of blood glucose has become routine practice in the management of diabetes mellitus. When all the data is complete, however, the amount of information to be taken into account when making therapeutic decisions becomes overwhelming not only for the patient but for the healthcare provider. Computers excel at processing large amounts of information quickly and impassively, which makes them potentially helpful for collating and communicating the data in a manner that facilitates decision-making by patient and healthcare provider. This should in turn improve control and help prevent acute and chronic complications.Method Using the Vista 350 telephone, we have developed a system that enables patients with diabetes to record home monitoring data to a central database and receive feedback summaries. A small trial was conducted to determine if the Vista 350 telephone is an acceptable and feasible method to communicate the results of home monitoring of diabetes mellitus to a central database and receive feedback summaries. A total of 35 volunteers with insulin-requiring diabetes mellitus in the London area were randomly allocated to either use the Vista 350 phone for 6 months, or to a control group that continued to use traditional methods for recording home monitoring data.Results 33 of the 35 patients enrolled completed the trial. All 16 patients who began using the phone continued to do so for 6 months confirming the feasibility of the system. Questionnaires completed at 3 and 6 months confirmed the Vista 350 telephone system to be acceptable to the subjects. The results will enable some minor modifications to be made to the telephone system before a larger definitive trial, designed to determine the effect on diabetes control, is conducted later this year.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
