Blackwell, M., Tomlinson, P. A., Rayns, J., Hunter, J., Sjoeholm, A., & Wheeler, B. J. (2016). Exploring the motivations behind misreporting self-measured blood glucose in adolescents with type 1 diabetes–a qualitative study. Journal of Diabetes & Metabolic Disorders, 15(1), 1.
The authors of this article explore the factors that motivate adolescents with type 1 diabetes (T1DM) to misreport their results to their parents or health care providers. The study notes that this behavior of misreporting is common among the adolescents. The study theorizes the fact that self-monitored blood glucose (SMBG) is an important component in modern T1DM management. Adolescents do not adhere with SMBG, and it appears in different ways such as reduced frequency in SMBG. Misreporting SMBG to caregivers and health professionals remain to be a complex aspect that may have strict consequences on T1DM patients. Misreporting of SMBG takes various forms that include verbal misreporting and logbook misreporting (manipulating pump download data).
The study notes that this misreporting is influenced by the desire to avoid any negative consequences. Those parents who impose disciplinary actions on non-adherence children contribute to misreporting of self-care management information. The adolescents with have to provide false information to avoid punishments. Also, the adolescents will give false information if their results are worrying. The study also notes that adolescents will use misreporting their results as a manipulative strategy to get what they want. Despite the advancements in technology, misreporting remains to be a major issue that needs to be addressed. This study provides a deeper insight into the factors that influences adolescents to this behavior in type 1 diabetes patients.
