Objective: To compare the effects of real-time continuous glucose monitoring (RT-CGM) and an Internet blood glucose monitoring system (IBGMS) on glycated hemoglobin levels in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus treated with insulin.

Methods: Fifty-seven patients with type 2 diabetes treated with insulin were assigned randomly to 1 of 2 groups. Group 1 had the results of their self-monitoring of blood glucose level monitored biweekly using an IBGMS.

Objective: To assess the long-term effect of an Internet blood glucose monitoring system (IBGMS) on patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus and patients with type 2 diabetes.

Methods: In all, 1200 patients were offered to be taught to communicate with their endocrinologists using standardized glucose level reports by e-mail, and received feedback within 24 hours. The first 926 patients enrolled were reviewed consecutively from March 2011 to October 2013.

Aims: To compare treatment satisfaction between real-time continuous glucose monitoring (RT-CGM) and internet-blood glucose monitoring (IBGM) in adults with type 2 diabetes treated with insulin.

Methods: This study recruited 40 patients who completed a parallel randomized controlled trial comparing a RT-CGM to an IBGM. Patients in the RT-CGM group monitored their blood-glucose levels bi-weekly and emailed results to their endocrinologist.
