About this study

Official title: The Promoting Resilience in Stress Management (PRISM) Intervention: a Multisite Randomized Control Trial in Adolescents With Type 1 Diabetes

It is well-known that adolescents with type 1 diabetes are at high risk for elevated diabetes-specific distress and poor glycemic control. This randomized controlled trial uses a novel, person-centered intervention designed to reduce diabetes distress and improve resilience skills, which the investigators hypothesize will in turn improve glycemic control and quality of life. If successful, results will greatly inform future research and clinical strategies aimed at improving outcomes among adolescents with type 1 diabetes.

Read the detailed description

Adolescents with type 1 diabetes (T1D) are at high risk for elevated diabetes distress, which greatly impacts their adherence, glycemic control (A1C), and overall quality of life (QOL). A potential barrier to improving these experiences may be that adolescents have few opportunities to develop the personal resources needed to handle adversity and manage stress. The "Promoting Resilience in Stress Management" (PRISM) intervention is a manualized, brief, skills-based intervention delivered in 2, 45-60 minute one-on-one sessions, followed by a family meeting and supplemented by booster sessions and a digital app. PRISM was developed from Stress and Coping theory and targets skills in stress-management and mindfulness, goal-setting, positive reframing, and meaning-making. All of these skills are associated with improved patient outcomes in diverse groups of adolescent populations with chronic/serious illness, and findings from a feasibility trial in adolescents with T1D showed PRISM to be highly feasible and desirable in this population. Further, a recent pilot randomized controlled trial among adolescents with cancer suggest PRISM is associated with improved perceptions of resilience, lower psychological distress, and higher QOL. This application proposes to build on our prior experience and fill three critical knowledge gaps: (1) PRISM's impact on A1C among adolescents with T1D; and (2) PRISM's impact on diabetes distress, self-reported adherence, and other patient-reported outcomes including resilience and QOL. This funding opportunity seeks to test interventions targeting diabetes distress for impact on glycemic control. Thus, the investigators propose a multi-site randomized controlled trial among N=160 adolescents (n=80 PRISM, n=80 Usual Care; ages 13-18) with the primary trial outcome of glycemic control 6-months post-enrollment. Time-in-range will be evaluated for participants on continuous glucose monitors as an exploratory aim. Secondary outcomes will include diabetes-distress, and patient-reported adherence, resilience, and quality of life. The investigators hypothesize PRISM will promote better glycemic control and improved diabetes distress than usual care. This application offers an opportunity to expand the body of knowledge regarding methodologically rigorous and evidence-based interventions for adolescents with T1D. Ultimately, this research has the potential to offer a practical, skills-based curriculum designed to improve outcomes for this high-risk group.

What participants receive

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

  • Promoting Resilience in Stress Management (PRISM)Behavioural

    PRISM was developed based on stress and coping theory to be a brief, disease non-specific, skills-based intervention targeting adolescent resilience resources. PRISM teaches 4 pillars of resilience including stress management, goal setting, cognitive restructuring and benefit-finding in a one-on-one training program consisting of two, 45-60 minute sessions and supported by 6-months of booster sessions and a fully developed digital app for practice and tracking. A family session follows the individual sessions and was designed for the adolescent to communicate to his/her caregiver(s) the skills learned, and how the caregiver(s) could best support ongoing practice.

Study groups in NCT03847194
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
PRISM Intervention ArmExperimentalThe goal of the intervention is to teach resilience resource skills for use in current or future stressful situations. The total intervention consists of two, 45-60 minute, one-on-one sessions approximately 2-4 weeks apart followed by a family meeting discussing the skills learned. Following the family session through week 12, participants receive bi-weekly "booster" contacts (1:1 check-in sessions with the interventionist) to practice/refresh skills and check-ins on how skills have been utilized. These boosters will then be delivered monthly in months 4-6. In addition, all PRISM participants have access to the digital PRISM app, which offers an interactive practice and tracking interface to continue enhancing skills.
Receives: Behavioral: Promoting Resilience in Stress Management (PRISM)
Usual CareNo interventionFamilies in both randomization arms will receive usual medical care for diabetes, including psychosocial care provided by the mental health professionals affiliated with the diabetes clinic if needed. At both sites, every diabetes patient is cared for by a team of diabetes specialists which includes a provider (MD, Physician Assistant and/or Nurse Practitioner), dietician, and social worker. Subspecialty referrals for additional mental health or other support are made at the discretion of the primary diabetes provider.

What is being measured

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

  1. A1C

    hemoglobin A1C

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Diabetes Distress

    Diabetes distress will be measured with the Problem Areas in Diabetes Scale, Teen Version. Higher scores indicate more distress. Total score ranges from 6 to 84.

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Resilience

    Resilience will be measured with the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale. Higher scores indicate more resilience. Total score ranges from 0-40.

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Diabetes-specific Quality of Life

    Diabetes-specific Quality of life will be measured using the adolescent self-report version of the Type 1 Diabetes and Life (T1DAL) which assesses diabetes-specific health-related quality of life (HRQOL) for people with type 1 diabetes (T1D). Higher scores indicate higher quality of life. Scale ranges 0-100, with higher scores indicating better quality of life.

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Adherence

    Adherence will be measured with the Diabetes Self-Management Questionnaire (DSMQ). The DSMQ ranges from 0-35 with higher scores indicate higher adherence.

    Measured: 6 months
