Objective

The glycemic control among patients with diabetes in India is very poor and better
self management is the key to improving glycemic levels.

This study evaluates the effectiveness of an iPDM (integrated personalized self- management)
to improve blood glucose (BG) levels.

Indication

Method

Participants were using an iPDM consisting of the Accu-Chek® Active BG monitor with The Wellthy CareTM digital therapeutic that delivers an artificial intelligence (AI) augmented disease management program for people with diabetes..

The study included 184 participants (Average = 45.41 years; 72.71% male) who had a minimum BG logging frequency of 2 BG logs/wk for 4 months and were using an iPDM consisting of the Accu- Chek® Active BG monitor with the Wellthy Care™ digital therapeutic.

Participants were analyzed for average BG (ABG), Fasting BG (FBG), and Post meal BG (PBG), at baseline (BG logged 1-3 days from the start of the program), month 1 (M1), and month 4 (M4), and change in estimated HbA1C (eA1C) based on ABG. Participants who had a minimum BG logging frequency of 2 BG logs/wk for 4 months.

The study analyzed average BG (ABG), Fasting BG (FBG), and Post-meal BG (PBG), at baseline (BG logged 1-3 days from the start of the program), month 1 (M1), and month 4 (M4), and change in estimated HbA1C (eA1C) based on ABG.
