OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to assess the effectiveness of the Smart Care service for the @entity6 management. METHODS: Fifty-six @entity1 with @entity6 were recruited in Daegu, Korea. All @entity1 completed a @entity6 management education course (diet, exercise, and complications) for their self-care and received access to a care management website through a netbook and smartphone. The website accepts uploads of @entity413 level, body weight, HbA1c, low-density lipoprotein @entity165 level, and blood pressure. @entity1 communicated with the care manager through the internal management system of the website. The intervention was applied for 6 months. RESULTS: @entity1 receiving the Smart Care service had lower blood @entity413 and HbA1c during 6 months follow-up when 1-month values (p < 0.001) were compared. There was no significant difference in body weight and body mass index between 1 month and 6 months. The average number of remote consultation with the Smart Care service per @entity1 was 10.4 by nurses, 3.0 by nutritionists, and 1.6 by sports curers. Regression analysis indicated that the number of times counseling was offered by nurses influences body weight and that the number of minutes of telephone counseling influences both body weight and body mass index. CONCLUSIONS: We have confirmed that the Smart Care service might be an effective system for reduction in blood @entity413 and HbA1c. We expect that the Smart Care service will contribute to delaying @entity2412 and improving the quality of life of @entity1 with @entity6 .
