About this study

Official title: Improvement of Care for Outpatients With Type 2 Diabetes at the Porto Alegre Clinic Hospital Through Self-Care Multidisciplinary Workshop for Diabetes: a Randomized Controlled Trial

Ninety-six patients with diabetes will be randomly assigned to maintain standard treatment or participate in the Self-Care Multidisciplinary Workshop for Diabetes. The workshop consists of individual meetings, with a multidisciplinary team (nurse, pharmacist, nutritionist, physical educator and social worker) in which education and self-care topics will be approached aiming at the formation of knowledge and skills necessary for patient self-care. The workshop will be offered in 3 different modules with 2 to 4 weeks difference between them. The variation of glycated hemoglobin as well as aspects associated with self-care, adherence and quality of life will be evaluated at the study entry, 6 and 12 months later.

Read the detailed description

Ninety-six patients with type 2 diabetes from our Diabetes Outpatient Clinic will be randomly assigned to maintain standard treatment or participate in the Self-Care Multidisciplinary Workshop for Diabetes. The workshop consists of 15-minute individual meetings with each professional of a multidisciplinary team (nurse, pharmacist, nutritionist, physical educator and social worker) in which education and self-care topics will be approached aiming at the formation of knowledge and skills necessary for patient self-care. The workshop will be offered in 3 different modules with 2 to 4 weeks difference between them.

Patients will be followed for 12 months. The variation of glycated hemoglobin as well as aspects associated with self-care, adherence and quality of life will be evaluated at the study entry, 6 and 12 months later.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Workshop in people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, run by Hospital de Clinicas de Porto Alegre at 1 site in Brazil.

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 Brazil. 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?

Change in glycated hemoglobin from baseline at 12 months (time frame: 12 months). 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 28 Sep 2020.
