Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Changes in Hemoglobin A1c
Changes in Hemoglobin A1c from baseline to 24 weeks visit. Reduce Hemoglobin A1c after study

Secondary Outcome Measures

Changes in FBS (Fasting blood sugar)
Changes in FBS (Fasting blood sugar) from baseline to 24 weeks visit Maintains FBS within the normal range
Changes in lipid profile
Changes in lipid profile from baseline to 24 weeks visit Maintains normal lipid profile
Percentage of subjects who achieved goal Hemoglobin A1c
Goal Hemoglobin A1c <7%
Changes in body mass index (BMI)
Reduction of body mass index - BMI=Body weight (kg)/Height2(m)
SMBG(Self-monitoring of blood glucose) compliance
measurement of Self-monitoring of blood glucose
Changes in body weight
Reduce body weight from baseline to 24 weeks visit
Assessment of patients' satisfaction
Assessment of subjects' satisfaction, Only remote monitoring group and remote visit + remote monitoring group are applicable
Medication compliance
Patients diary will be recorded and medication compliance will be calculated by calculating the number of days administered Insulin or Oral Hypoglycemic Agents during the study Drugs compliance = the number of days administered antihypertensive drugs / participated period in this study * 100%

Brief Summary
A multi-center, randomized, parallel, interventional, open label trial to compare Hemoglobin A1C-lowering effect of conventional treatment and Smart Care Service in patients with type 2 diabetes.
Detailed Description
Objectives : To evaluate superiority in the Hemoglobin A1C -lowering effect of Smart Care Service compared to the conventional treatment in patients with type 2 diabetes. Test and control group Control group : The subject group who is receiving any conventional treatment (hospital visit). Test groups Conventional treatment + remote monitoring group: The subject group who is receiving the health care services using conventional treatment (hospital visit) and remote monitoring. Remote visit + remote monitoring group: The subject group who is receiving remote visit and remote monitoring using videotelephony Target Subject: Type II diabetes patients
