Key result
Remote glucose monitoring is linked to up to a ~1.5% HbA1c reduction at 6 months.
Why the study?
Despite modern drugs, self-monitoring blood glucose tools, and patient education, many patients with diabetes fail to achieve HbA1c targets, requiring new treatment approaches.
Does remote monitoring of blood glucose improve HbA1c levels in patients with type 2 diabetes?
Population

Comparison
SMBG with remote endocrinologist monitoring vs traditional SMBG
Follow-up
6 months

Remote monitoring was associated with HbA1c reductions in type 2 diabetes; hypothesis-generating and requires randomized confirmation before practice change.
Cohort (n=198)
Does remote monitoring of blood glucose improve HbA1c levels in patients with type 2 diabetes?
p-value: p=<0.001
Remote monitoring of blood glucose by an endocrinologist significantly improves glycemic control and quality of life in patients with type 2 diabetes compared to traditional self-monitoring.
Суплотова et al. (2025) conducted a cohort in Type 2 diabetes mellitus (n=198). Remote monitoring of self-monitoring blood glucose (SMBG) vs. Traditional SMBG was evaluated on Dynamics of HbA1c (p=<0.001). Remote monitoring of blood glucose self-control significantly decreased HbA1c at 6 months by 0.9% in patients on tablet therapy and by 1.5% in those on insulin therapy (both p<0.001).
