A Randomized Controlled Trial of an Automated Telephone Intervention to Improve Glycemic Control in Type 2 Diabetes
A r and omized controlled trial was conducted to evaluate the impact of an automated telephone intervention on glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes . One hundred twenty participants were r and omly assigned to a treatment group that received a daily , automated telephone message regarding diabetes or to a control group that received usual care .
