Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2
Conditions
Brief summary
This study is a German, prospective, multicenter, controlled, cluster-randomized, interventional comparative study evaluating the efficacy and benefits of integrated PDM care by measuring HbA1c levels in patients with Type 2 Diabetes. Patients will be randomized into two groups to use Accu-Chek Smartpix software and Accu-Chek Smartpix device.
Detailed description
Outcome of both studies (RD001732 and RD001231) will be integrated and additionally reported as PDM-ProValue study program (Integrated Personalized Diabetes Management) due to the high similarity in study characteristics, design and study results.
Interventions
Software with adherence evaluation software used according to Integrated Personalized Diabetes Management (PDM)
Smartpix device for data upload out from blood glucose meter devices
Sponsors
Study design

Exclusion criteria
* Diabetes treatment by insulin pump therapy (CSII) * Experience with the use of special software for systematic processing of SMBG data, e.g. the Accu-Chek® Smart Pix System/Software, the Accu-Chek® 360° Software and/or the Diabetes Software DIABASS * Presence of terminal renal failure / dialysis and/or a loss of sight or a tumor illness * Chronic use of steroids in adrenal suppressant doses, of other immuno-modulatory drugs or chemotherapy * Known alcohol, drug and medication abuse * Known metabolic disorders and/or disorders or therapies that could lead to or have led to wrong measured results (e.g. with the blood glucose measurement) * Existing pregnancy, breast-feeding or plan to become pregnant during study participation * Physical illness and/or psychological disorder with the result that the patient cannot implement the medical treatment recommendations independently * Dependency relationship to the sponsor or to the investigator, e.g. as a professional colleague or family member
