About this study

Official title: Randomised Controlled Trial of Cognitive Behaviour Therapy: Efficacy and Acceptability for Adolescents With Type 1 Diabetes.

The effectiveness of cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) for adolescents with type 1 diabetes will be tested. This structured, time-limited, problem-orientated therapy will be used to impact on psychosocial factors influencing diabetic control, with the patient and therapist working together on specific goals to develop adaptive strategies.

Read the detailed description

Ninety 11-16 year olds with T1DM (duration >1 year), attending paediatric diabetes outpatient clinics based in 4 centres in South-West England, UK, will be recruited to a randomised controlled trial of one to one sessions of CBT versus non-directive supportive counselling. Participants will attend up to 6 sessions (weekly) with either a CBT therapist or a counsellor, with 2 further sessions at 6 and 12 months. Follow up will continue for 12 months post intervention. HbA1c is the primary outcome measure. Psychological measures will also be measured.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

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?

HBA1c. 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.
