目得:确定妊娠期糖尿病患者血糖数据的现代传输是否可以提供更快的结果交流,提高临床工作流程效率和同等准确性。参与者和医疗保健提供者的满意度的技术也assessed.DATA Sources:参与者被随机分配到调制解调器组,使用Acculink调制解调器报告血糖数据,或控制组,使用电话报告的数据。测量电话咨询时间、门诊就诊时间和数据准确性。参与者和卫生保健提供者完成了满意度questionnaires.CONCLUSIONS:在电话咨询时间,诊所工作流程效率,或准确性没有显着差异被发现组之间。然而,无论是现代组和临床工作人员都非常满意远程医疗传输血糖data.IMPLICATIONS为实践:远程医疗是一种方便的方法,用于监测妊娠期糖尿病患者。作为这项研究的结果,调制解调器传输是建立在我们的诊所胰岛素泵患者有兴趣使用调制解调器技术。
PURPOSE: To determine if modem transmission of blood glucose data by patients with gestational diabetes could provide faster communication of results, increased clinic work-flow efficiency, and equivalent accuracy. Participant and health care provider satisfaction with the technique was also assessed.DATA SOURCES: Participants were randomized to the modem group, which used the Acculink Modem to report blood glucose data, or to the control group, which used the telephone to report the data. Telephone consultation time, clinic visit time, and accuracy of data were measured. Participants and health care providers completed satisfaction questionnaires.CONCLUSIONS: No significant differences in telephone consultation time, clinic work-flow efficiency, or accuracy were found between the groups. However, both the modem group and clinic staff were highly satisfied with telemedicine transmission of blood glucose data.IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE: Telemedicine is a convenient method for monitoring patients with gestational diabetes mellitus. As a result of this study, modem transmission was instituted in our clinic for insulin pump patients interested in using modem technology.
