About this trial

The study aims to evaluate the impact of a telemonitoring system on glycemic control in patients with diabetes in Tunisia. Participants in the intervention group will receive remote diabetes management through a dedicated mobile application and web platform, while the control group will receive standard diabetes care. The primary objective is to determine the effectiveness of telemonitoring in improving glycemic control, as assessed by changes in glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and blood glucose levels.
