About this study

Official title: Situational Problem Solving in Adolescents With Type 2 Diabetes: Enhancing an RCT

The proposed research will test a new comprehensive disease management intervention with adolescents who have type 2 diabetes using a randomized controlled trial (RCT). Adolescents subjects with a history of Type 2 Diabetes and a parent caregiver will be consented, enrolled, and randomly assigned to either an 6-month intervention (N=44) or a "usual care" comparison (N=44). Recruitment will take place within the Vanderbilt Eskind Pediatric Diabetes Clinic. The intervention will include participation in a comprehensive disease management program that includes: (1) application of treatment algorithms, (2) phone assessment from a diabetes nurse practitioner and dietician to assess barriers and promote problem solving, treatment adherence and management, and (3) a behavioral Internet-administered self-management problem solving component. Outcomes include self-reported self-management behaviors (exercise, diet, medication adherence, etc.), blood pressure, weight/BMI, and glycated hemoglobin (A1C).

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?

A1C (time frame: 0,3,6 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 18 Dec 2013.
