Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire, change version (DTSQc), Relative treatment satisfaction total scoreYear 1

Score on a scale (The Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire change version (DTSQc) will be used to measure the change in patient satisfaction with their diabetes treatment. It consists of a six-item scale assessing treatment satisfaction and two items assessing perceived frequency of hyperglycaemia and hypoglycaemia. The DTSQc items are on a scale from 3 to -3. If they experience no change, then 0 is chosen. Higher score indicate higher satisfaction with their current treatment)
