Overview

May enhance SMBG usability; leaves open whether fewer steps reduce errors or improve outcomes in practice.

Structured PICO

Does a fully integrated self-monitoring of blood glucose system reduce the number of handling steps compared to partly integrated and conventional systems?

I
Intervention
Fully integrated self-monitoring of blood glucose system (second generation Accu-Chek Mobile)
C
Comparator
Three partly integrated and six conventional self-monitoring of blood glucose systems
O
Outcome
Number of handling steps required to perform self-monitoring of blood glucose

Fully integrated blood glucose monitoring systems significantly reduce the number of handling steps, which may decrease user errors and improve user-friendliness.
