Protocol summary

Study aim
Application carbohydrate counting application on daily blood sugar control and glycosylated hemoglobin level in children with diabetes type 1
Design
A randomized clinical trial with a control group, parallel groups, and a blind strain, on 100 patients with type 2 diabetes. The rand function of Excel software was used for randomization.
Settings and conduct
This study will be conducted in Akbar Hospital in Mashhad. A sugar counting app will be installed for caregivers of control group patients. Before and three months after the intervention in both groups, FBG, 2hpp, and Hb A1C will be taken. The study analyst will be blinded.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Parents who have a child with type 1 diabetes, Patients with type 2 diabetes for at least three months, The age of a child with diabetes is 1 to 18 years, Literacy for reading and writing, Having a Android smartphone and internet access exclusion criteria: Having other chronic underlying diseases in children

Control group: There will be no intervention in this group. Only a notebook will be given to parents of children with diabetes to record insulin, FBG, 2hpp, and Hg A1C. In this group, before and three months after receiving the notebook, fasting FBG, 2hpp, and Hg A1C will be measured.

Randomization description
In this study, the participants are allocated to the intervention and control groups with Simple Blocked Randomization. The randomized unit is individual. First, blocks of four consisting of control group (2 people) and intervention group (2 people) will be formed. Based on this, 6 different sequences will be formed. After counting the blocks, the blocks will be randomly selected. The random selection continues forever until the sequence is determined for 100 people. The created sequence will be kept in a sealed envelope.
