Abstract
Background: The ability of people with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) to improve
glycemic control depends on their ability to interpret and act on blood glucose results.
We investigated applicants satisfaction when switching to blood glucose meters (BGMs)
featuring rightest app via Bluetooth using their smartphones .
Objective: This study aimed to assess the feasibility of the app (rightest) and the
participants satisfaction after using the app in 3 months interval by using UEQ -S
score.
Methods: This is an observational study, conducted at the Pediatric and Adolescent
Diabetes Unit, Children’s Hospital, Faculty of Medicine, Ain Shams University
(PADU), on participants with T1DM(13-18 years old) . The recruited participants
(n=20) with T1DM started using the “Rightest” app for 3 months .UEQ-S was used at
the end of the study to asses the participants satisfaction .It consists of the two
dimensions pragmatic quality (item 1–4) and hedonic quality (item 5–8). Each item is
measured on a 7-point Likert scale with two opposite meanings ranging.
Results: 20 participants with T1DM are following at PADU used BGM with rightest
app for 3 months. UEQ-S results revealed pragmatic total score (1.425) was above
average while the hedonic total score was good(1.250) and the overall score was
good(1.338) where -3 indicates extremely bad score while +3 indicates extremely good
score.This indicates that they showed overall good satisfaction for mobile app using
UEQ-S score .
Conclusion: This study demonstrated that switching to BGMs with mobile app showed
good satisfaction after 3 month interval .
