Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in Glycosylated Hemoglobin (Hba1c)

    From date of randomization every 3 months, up to one year

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Time spent on data analysis and telephone calls by team

    1 year

  • Number of severe hypoglycemic and diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) events and hospitalizations

    1 year

  • Patients' quality of life

    1 year

  • Patients' satisfaction

Study Arms (2)

Telecare

EXPERIMENTAL

Each patient will transmit glucometer and pump data electronically via a web site to diabetes team and will receive feedback by telephone. Frequency of data transfer will be directly related to patients' metabolic control.

Other: Telecare

Conventional therapy

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

3-month routine clinic visits

Other: Conventional therapy

Interventions

Each patient will transmit glucometer and pump data electronically via a web site (Medtronic Carelink internet site www.carelink.minimed.com) to diabetes team and will receive feedback by telephone. Frequency of data transfer will be directly related to patients' metabolic control. In addition to data transmission Patient of the intervention group will be arriving during the intervention year for 3 clinic visit at the following time point : 0, 6 and 12 month.

Telecare

3-month routine clinic visits
