title: Diabetes in pregnancy: evaluating self-monitoring performance and glycemic control with memory-based reflectance meters.
abstract: Reflectance meters modified by the addition of a memory microchip that stored glucose values were used to measure the difference between self-reported and actual blood glucose data in 34 pregnant diabetic women. Overall two thirds of the patients reported values that were significantly lower and less variable than those recorded in the memory meters.
