Self‐monitoring of blood glucose in non‐insulin‐treated diabetic patients: a longitudinal evaluation of its impact on metabolic control

Aims  In the framework of a nationwide outcomes research programme, we assessed the impact of self‐monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) on metabolic control over 3 years in patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) not treated with insulin.
