The sample consisted of 77 patients with type 2 diabetes that randomly were assigned to two groups: telephone follow-up (n = 39) and short message service (n = 38). The researchers applied telephone interventions for three months, twice a week for the first month and every week for the second and third month. For three successive months, the short message service group that received messages about adherence to therapeutic regimen was examined, working with a nurse who provided them with a diabetes therapeutic regimen. The results showed that both interventions had significant mean changes in glycosylated hemoglobin. For the telephone group (p < 0·001), a mean change of −0·93 and for the short message service group (p < 0·001), a mean change of −1·01.
They concluded that patients had better results managing their disease, improved HbA1c levels, when following a tele-communications plan. Regardless of the type of follow-up care, patients Improved HbA1c levels and adherence to diabetes treatment
