Innovation in clinical method: diabetes care and negotiating skills.

The development of a method to facilitate clinical negotiation with diabetic patients is described. The principles of the method incorporate patient centredness, an assessment of readiness to change and some elements of motivational interviewing. A simple low cost technology is part of the innovative method. Details of the method and its application are published before the results of a randomized controlled trial to ensure that the techniques are in the public domain before the outcome of the trial is known.
