Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study
Improved quality of Type 2 diabetes care following electronic feedback of treatment status to general practitioners: a cluster randomized controlled trial.
To evaluate the effect of an electronic feedback system to general practitioners on quality of Type 2 diabetes care. ⋯ Electronic feedback to general practitioners on the quality of Type 2 diabetes care resulted in significantly improved quality regarding processes of care according to guidelines. It was not possible to demonstrate any effect on secondary end-point measures within the follow-up period. Electronic feedback on quality of diabetes care can be effective in improving adherence to treatment according to evidence-based guidelines.
