Feasibility and Efficacy of Delivering Blood Glucose Awareness Training Over the Internet

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus

In brief

BGATHome is an interactive, web-based training program designed to improve the ability of adults with Type 1 Diabetes to recognize, predict, treat, and avoid extreme blood glucose (BG) events. It was developed at the University of Virginia over the past 20 years with funding from the National Institutes of Health and the American Diabetes Association. BGATHome provides important knowledge about personal insulin use, food, and activity regimens that influence BG levels. Users of this program will learn to monitor and recognize the cues that signal hyper and hypoglycemic events, and enhance their ability to control these fluctuations.
