About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Self-management of Patients With Type 1 Diabetes After Education to Functional Insulin Therapy

Therapeutic education of patients is a mandatory component of intensive insulin therapy of type 1 diabetes in order to reach optimal safety and efficacy. Used educational methods aim at facilitating patients' autonomy in their own management of diabetes. Therefore, self-management of patient with type 1 diabetes must be systematically assessed in order to evaluate the effectiveness of education programs .The main objective of this prospective controlled randomized monocentric study is to assess the impact of functional insulin therapy on the level of self-management of patients with type 1 diabetes via Confidence In Diabetes Self-care scale (CIDS) test.

Read the detailed description

170 patients with type 1 diabetes, volunteering for education to functional insulin therapy, will be recruited by the Department od Endocrinology, Diabetes, Nutrition of Montpellier University Hospital.

After inclusion, the patients will be randomized in 2 groups: group 1 will be immediately trained to functional insulin therapy and group 2 will be trained at the end of the study. The patients will be met as outpatients 3 months after inclusion. The primary endpoint will be the global score for CIDS questionnaire.

Secondary endpoints will include: HbA1c level at month 3, frequency of hypoglycemia from inclusion to month 3, scores for each of the 20 items of CIDS questionnaire.

An ancillary study will assess: the acceptability of the new EAD questionnaire which specifically evaluates the self-management of diabetes, the concordance validity of EAD and CDIS questionnaires, the reproducibility test-retest, the internal consistency and the sensitivity to change of EAD questionnaire.

Being tested
Training course to functional insulin therapy, Usual diabetes management.

What is being measured

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

  1. To assess the impact of therapeutic education by functional insulin therapy in patients with type 1 diabetes on their ability to disease self-management.

    CIDS questionnaire

    Measured: three months (from inclusion until end of study)

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. To assess the effect of education to functional insulin therapy on HbA1c level

    HbA1c

    Measured: three months (from inclusion until end of study)

  2. To assess the effect of education to functional insulin therapy on hypoglycemia frequency

    Hypoglycemia occurrence

    Measured: three months (from inclusion until end of study)

  3. To assess the effect of education to functional insulinotherapy on the score of each of the 20 items of CIDS questioonaire

    CIDS questionnaire sub scores

    Measured: three months (from inclusion until end of study)

  4. To assess the validity, the concordance and the sensitivity to change of EAD questionnaire (specific for self-management of diabetes) in comparison with CIDS test

    EAD questionnaire score

    Measured: three months (from inclusion until end of study)

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?

To assess the impact of therapeutic education by functional insulin therapy in patients with type 1 diabetes on their ability to disease self-management. (time frame: three months (from inclusion until end of study)). 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.
