Therefore, we have developed a team-based interprofessional and telemedicine-based diabetes management system named TeDia (“Telemedical Diabetology”) and implemented it in an inpatient setting. The aim of the retrospective real-world study was to show the clinical impact of TeDia following its implementation.Material and methods: TeDia is characterized by an interpersonal and telemedicine-based exchange of hospital routine data between specially trained nurses (“diabetes managers”) and external diabetologists. It was implemented in three acute hospitals of the Düsseldorf Catholic Hospital Group in Düsseldorf, Germany. Clinical awareness of diabetes, diabetes-related complications and diagnosis-related group (DRG)-based revenues were analyzed using ICD routine coding. Furthermore, the frequency of HbA1c determinations as well as hospitalization days were investigated.Results: Before (2010), during (2012) and after the implementation of TeDia (2014), the number of patients with ICD coding for diabetes, decompensated diabetes, diabetic neuropathy, diabetic nephropathy as well as complicated diabetes increased by +18%, +93%, +101%, +113% and +89%, respectively. Using the same DRG grouper, revenues increased by +53% (from 27 (2013) to 42 (2014) DRG points). Frequency of HbA1c determinations rose by +85%, whereas the time for an average length of stay decreased by −12% (−0, 91 days) in comparison to patients without diabetes.Conclusion: TeDia improved clinical awareness for diabetes and its complications. This new treatment model increased revenues and reduced hospital days indicating enhanced treatment quality. Our findings emphasize the necessity of novel technologies in inpatient settings for the improvement of efficacy, safety and efficiency of diabetes care.Keywords: telemedicine, diabetes, inpatient careRöhling MRedaélli MSimic DLorrek KSamel CSchneider PKempf KStock SMartin SDove Medical Pressarticletelemedicinetelemedicine-based interventiondiabetesinpatient careSpecialties of internal medicineRC581-951ENDiabetes, Metabolic Syndrome and Obesity: Targets and Therapy, Vol Volume 12, Pp 2479-2487 (2019)
