ClinicalTrials.gov · COMPLETED, 2009

211 participants

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to evaluate if the meal marker and reminder feature of the Contour meter along with education maintains or increases frequency of testing blood sugar after meals and enables behavioral changes that may lead to improvement in glycemic control.

Primary outcome: Average Number of Weekly Post-Prandial Blood Glucose Tests Performed by Subjects Using Either Basic or Advanced Meter Features.

Enrollment: 211 participants.

How strong is the evidence?

Evidence Hub reads this as a clinical trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 3 of 5 (Moderate · trial / cohort / secondary analysis). Trials without a large randomized design, cohorts and secondary analyses give moderate evidence. Reported size: 211 participants or records.

How the five levels of evidence work. The level is assigned automatically from the abstract and can be wrong, so check the paper.
