Abstract
AimsThe aim of the article is to describe the method for creating a close to ideal diabetes database. The MÉRY Diabetes Database (MDD) consists of a large quantity of reliable, well-maintained, precise and up-to-date data suited for clinical research with the intention to improve diabetes care in terms of maintaining targeted blood glucose levels, avoiding hypoglycemic episodes and complications and improving patient compliance and quality of life. MethodsBased on the analysis of the databases found in the literature and the experience of our research team, nine important characteristics were identified as critical to an ideal diabetes database. The data for our database is collected using MÉRYkék glucometers, a device that meets all requirements of international regulations and measures blood glucose levels within the normal range with appropriate precision (10 %). ResultsUsing the key characteristics defined, we were able to create a database suitable for the analysis of a large amount of data regarding diabetes care and outcomes. ConclusionsThe MDD is a reliable and ever growing database which provides stable and expansive foundation for extensive clinical investigations that hold the potential to significantly influence the trajectory of diabetes care and enhance patient outcomes.
