Abstract
The high level of technologization in the treatment of type 1 diabetes mellitus made it possible to provide outpatient care during the coronavirus pandemic with the help of video consultations. The increasing experience of families’ e‑learning in school or professional life and the structures created in practices and clinics to provide telemedical consultations has allowed the continued development of different training concepts in pediatric diabetology. The use is diverse and individual, such as having additional caregivers participate in a face-to-face training sessions, to jointly perform timely processing in the case of acute questions from parents through data analysis, or to avoid long travel distances to attend a consultation. Important for implementation is a structured approach with all necessary tools, a quiet workplace, and the expectation of the possible occurrence of technical problems on both sides. Backup contact by telephone is helpful. Telemedicine training concepts in diabetes counselling is a new exciting experience and complements the care of the entire family with a child or adolescent with diabetes mellitus and should be used and expanded in the future.
