title: Integrated specialty and operational system for diabetes management in south west England.
abstract: The management and control of diabetes throughout South West England has been assisted by the use of a networked computerised information system which is totally integrated with hospital and community information systems. The objectives of the diabetes system are to produce an aid to diabetes management, which includes the creation of a district diabetes register accessed and maintained by clinicians based in both the hospital and in the community, whilst at the same time providing auditable information.
