Measure
Test Group- CONTOUR Next USB
Subjects applied the CONTOUR NextT USB device. This group was not required to keep a paper log book. Subjects' blood glucose values were communicated to their health care professionals by using the data management software. Patients were trained in using the device and return every 3 months until month 9 after baseline.
Control Group- Standard CONTOUR
Subjects used the standard CONTOUR device. Subjects' blood glucose values were communicated to their health care professionals via handwritten glucose log books. Patients were trained in using the device and return every 3 months until month 9 after baseline.
