About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Controlled, Open-label Study to Evaluate the Efficacy of the S-Diabetes Care Program Based on Ubiquitous Healthcare System in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes

The aim of this study is to investigate whether adding tailored mobile coaching system to present community primary care for diabetes management would result in better glycemic control and other diabetes-related outcomes in adult patients with type 2 diabetes, compared with maintaining usual diabetes management only.

Read the detailed description

The incidence and prevalence of type 2 diabetes is increasing rapidly worldwide. Considering the fact that complications of diabetes result in greater expenditure and reduced productivity is a socioeconomic concern, adequate glycemic control is important not only as individual health problem but also as challenge to healthcare systems worldwide. To support patients' behavior change efforts, including healthy lifestyle choices, disease self-management, and prevention of diabetes complication, multifaceted professional interventions are needed. Ubiquitous healthcare based on information and communication technology is one of these approaches.

The aim of this study is to investigate whether adding tailored mobile coaching system to present community primary care for diabetes management would result in better glycemic control and other diabetes-related outcomes in adult patients with type 2 diabetes, compared with maintaining usual diabetes management only.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Tailored mobile coaching messagesOther

    Intervention was adding tailored mobile coaching to current usual diabetes care. The participants received regular mobile messages via Switch app according to entered data, such as self-monitoring of blood glucose, blood pressure, exercise, dietary record, medication record, and body weight. Contents of messages were alert for the unused, weather, behavioral recommendation, education about diabetes, and individualized advices.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Intervention-Maintenance groupExperimentalIntervention was adding 'Tailored mobile coaching messages' onto conventional diabetes management. This study was divided into two phases. In six-month phase 1 study, the participants in I-M group received tailored mobile coaching. And during the second half six-month phase 2 study, they could receive only regular information messages without individualized coaching.

Control-Intervention groupActive comparatorIntervention was adding 'Tailored mobile coaching messages' onto conventional diabetes management. In six-month phase 1 study, the participants in Control-Intervention group maintained usual care for diabetes. During the second half six-month phase 2 study, they received tailored mobile coaching.
