Continuous Glucose Monitoring Integration for Remote Diabetes Management: Virtual Diabetes Care with Case Studies.

Use of telemedicine and remote monitoring technologies can significantly improve glycemic control in patients with type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes. Patients' ability to interact remotely with their health care providers via smartphones and other communication devices can increase their access to clinical care and online coaching and support programs.
