Abstract

Adherence to SMBG was suboptimal. The most significant factors that interfered with adherence were having type 2 diabetes and environmental barriers. Knowing the importance of these factors may assist diabetes educators and other healthcare professionals in identifying people at risk for low adherence to SMBG and potentially long-term health complications.
