Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The growing incidence of diabetes and the need to contain health care costs empower the necessity to identify new models to cope with regular periodic follow up of patients affected by diabetes mellitus. Telemedicine offers an acknowledged instrument to provide clinical health care at a distance, increasing patient compliance and the achievement of therapeutical goals. This study wants to verify the feasibility and the efficacy of teleconsultation in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus. In particular by a randomized controlled approach the effects on glycemic control of patients followed by teleconsultation or traditionally in standard visit in the outpatient clinic. The patients in the teleconsultation group will arrange their bookings on a website (http://www.telediabete-fid.it/) In this website they could also access to web educational courses (mainly nutrition, insulin management, glucose monitoring auto-control) or to nutritional and psychological counselling.
