About this study

Official title: Diabetes and Cardiovascular Risks in Primary Care

The purpose of this pilot study is to collect preliminary information about the best way to implement an intervention to reduce the risks of heart disease and stroke.

Read the detailed description

This study has two types of interventions. The clinics and patients are randomly assigned to either a control or intervention group. All clinics have both control and intervention patients. In the clinic intervention, we help doctors monitor patient information about the risk factors of heart disease and stroke. In the patient intervention, we contact patients by phone to discuss these risk factors before their doctor visits.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Document changes made to study procedures to better implement this study's interventions that are designed to reduce risks of heart disease and stroke

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Patient Outcome Measures: Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), lipids (low-density lipoprotein [LDL] non-high-density lipoprotein [HDL] triglycerides), blood pressure

  2. Patient assessed health status, diabetes self-care activities and knowledge of cardiovascular (CV) risk factors

  3. Physician Outcome Measures: Physician knowledge, attitude and readiness to change practice; Physician-level measure of patient-centeredness of encounter and interpersonal communication

  4. Assessment of Chronic Illness Care (ACIC) Surveys

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Patient Activation and Diabetes Registry in people with Diabetes, run by The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Jul 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Document changes made to study procedures to better implement this study's interventions that are designed to reduce risks of heart disease and stroke. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 2 Jul 2012.
