About this study

Official title: Intensive Case Diabetes Management to Prevent Readmission of Previously Identified High Risk Patients

The purpose of this study is to assess whether intensive case management interventions by a diabetes team, led by an endocrinologist and certified diabetes educator, can prevent <31 day readmission in previously identified high risk patients with diabetes.The procedures of the study will focus on managing the patient's diabetes and diabetes education while in the hospital, decreasing the patient's risk for hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia in the hospital, and assist in the patient's diabetes management plan for a safe discharge.

What is being measured

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

  1. Prevent <31 day readmission

    Primary outcome measure is to assess whether an intensive case management intervention by a diabetes team, led by an endocrinologist and a certified diabetes educator (CDE) , can prevent a <31 day readmission in previously identified high risk patients with diabetes compared to standard/usual care.

    Measured: The length of time between hospital discharge and readmission 31 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. improve overall glycemic management

    To examine whether intensive case management intervention per endocrinologist and CDE during hospital stay prevents hypoglycemia <70mg/dl, severe hypoglycemia <40mg/dl, and improves overall glycemic management (100-180 mg/dl) compared to standard/usual care.

    Measured: Upon the participant's consent (within 24 hours of hospital admission) to hospital discharge- the average length of stay is five days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Intensive Diabetes Case Management in people with Diabetes, run by Washington University School of Medicine 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 1 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?

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 was stopped early (reason given: Unable to enroll due to protocol exclusion criteria and participant population pool). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Prevent <31 day readmission (time frame: The length of time between hospital discharge and readmission 31 days). 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 3 Jun 2015.
