What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Adherence with discharge diabetes medications up to 120 days following pharmacist counseling during hospital stay about diabetes self management
The primary efficacy endpoint will be the difference in rate of adherence with medications Adherence will be assessed at 30, 60, 90, and 120 days following discharge An average of the total adherence rate 120 days following discharge will be calculated as the primary outcome measure
Measured: up to 120 days
Secondary outcomes (3)
Change in A1c after 90 days
A1c measure as % and lipid panel 90 days following pharmacist counseling
- To demonstrate an improvement in health literacy following pharmacist counseling on diabetes
- To evaluate patient compliance with follow up appointments up to 90 days following pharmacist counseling
Measured: up to 90 days
Change in BP after 90 days
BP in mm/Hg
Measured: up to 90 days
Change in lipids after 90 days
