About this study

Official title: Translating Information on Comparative Effectiveness Into Practice (TRICEP)

The goal of this study is to test the relative merits of a decision aid for diabetes medications that we have developed - Diabetes Medication Choice Cards- versus usual care in translating comparative effectiveness research (CER) into real world clinics. This study will involve about 20 primary care practice sites affiliated with Mayo Health System, Park Nicollet, or Hennepin County Medical Center. There will be no recruiting done at the Mayo Clinic.

Read the detailed description

To conduct a cluster-randomized practical trial to evaluate the impact of our decision aid (Diabetes Medication Choice Cards) versus usual care as strategies to translate CER into practice among patients with poorly controlled diabetes in need of drug intensification (Hemoglobin Alc (HbA1c) > 7.3%). Patient outcomes including reaching glycemic control target (HbA1c less than or equal to 7.3%), medication choice and adherence, satisfaction and knowledge. From the physician perspective, we will be measuring physician adoption and satisfaction with the decision aid.

To identify, describe, and explain factors that promote or inhibit the uptake of complex interventions such as decision aids in practices participating in the trial.

To conduct an exploratory analysis of the ability of patients to adhere to the medications chosen while exploring the factors that enable or hinder the patients' ability to incorporate these medications into their routine.

What is being measured

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

  1. Patient Satisfaction and knowledge

    Primary outcome is to evaluate the impact of our decision aid (Diabetes Medication Choice Cards) versus usual care as strategies to translate CER into practice among patients with poorly controlled diabetes in need of drug intensification (Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) > 7.3%). Patient outcomes include satisfaction with use of the decision aid and knowledge, compared to the control, usual care group (by written survey at point of care and follow-up).

    Measured: baseline to 12 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Physician adoption and satisfaction with the decision aid.

    Brief post-visit surveys will be completed by the clinicians, directly following clinical visit.

    Measured: baseline to 12 months

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites 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?

Patient Satisfaction and knowledge (time frame: baseline to 12 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01293578, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 28 Sep 2022.
