Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • metabolic control (HbA1c concentrations) at Month 9

    The noninferiority of HbA1C concentration between the groups (the difference of HbA1c between the groups will be less than 5 mmol/mol,

    Month 9 visit

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Control of glycemia levels by CGM data evaluation.

    Month 3, Month 6, and Month 9

  • Duration of the dia visit

    Month 3and Month 6

  • Patient´s satisfaction of regular and telemedicine (email) visits.

    Month 9

Study Arms (2)

Telemedicine arm

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants in this arm will be follow up by telemedicine control (via emails) instead of regular controls. They will upload the data from their devices (pump, CGM) to cloud system on their own. All instructions what to change they will recive by email only.

Other: Telemedicine

Outpatient clinic meetings arm

NO INTERVENTION

Participants in this arm will normally come for the regular meetings with their diabetologist to the outpatient clinic.
