Abstract

Prevention of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM)-related complications is dependent on metabolic control. The recommended glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) values <7.5% (58.5 mmol/mol) are met only by a minority of diabetic children and especially adolescents. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of an intervention comprising the use of Webdia, a patient-designed app for smartphones, on metabolic control of T1DM in children.
