Effectiveness of video consultations in type 1 diabetes patients treated with insulin pumps in the outpatient clinic: a randomised controlled trial
Primary result · TiR (least square means)Result — go to the resultDifference 0.8 percentage points 95% CI −5.3 to 6.9Authors' conclusion
Video consultations did not significantly improve the primary endpoint. However, compared with control, the intervention was associated with superior treatment satisfaction and a favourable effect on HbA1c, albeit with an inferior impact on quality of life.
