Summary
A randomized controlled trial in patients with type 1 diabetes, assessing the metabolic
effects of accurate blood sugar results and education. A systematic approach in
self-monitoring blood glucose will improve metabolic control in type 1 diabetes patients.
Education in SMBG combined with a high analytical quality instrument for SMBG, introduced in
a systematic and thorough way will improve HbA1c by 0,5% and keep it over a period of 9
months.
