Evaluation of care and clinical outcomes after the implementation of an electronic medical record system for type 1 diabetes management in Rwanda
Several quality and clinical indicators improved after the integration of the EMR system in T1D management. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study evaluating the impact of using an EMR system on the quality of care and clinical outcomes for T1D individuals in an SSA context. The long-term effect and implications are yet to be explored.
