title: A Patient-Driven Approach to Manage Mealtime Insulin Titration: Tools From the AUTONOMY Study.
abstract: Patient-centric methods to support diabetes management are important to overcome barriers associated with initiating mealtime insulin. This article describes the subject-driven titration tools implemented in the AUTONOMY trial to initiate and adjust mealtime insulin dose and the methods used to apply these tools in clinical practice.
  
  
  
  The methods used to initiate and escalate mealtime insulin in the AUTONOMY trial proved to be safe and effective, and the patient-friendly guide to self-adjusting mealtime insulin dose may mitigate the complexities associated with treatment intensification while empowering patients to reach their glycemic goals.
