About this study

Official title: VOIES-D-ql (Visualization for the Optimization of Interactions and Experiences in Healthcare Services in Diabetes Care)

Population aging and the increase in incidence and prevalence of potentially disabling chronic conditions make health care more and more complex and costly. In this context, timelines are longer and adherence to care provision and health status are more variable - both within and between patients - and care is provided by different health care professionals, as well as services outside the health system, which may work at various levels of service integration. For diabetes, this is especially the case: patients at high risk for multimorbidity interact with multiple health care professionals, such as primary care physicians, diabetes specialists, nurses, nutritionists and therapeutic educators, with different perspectives to treatment. The patient is frequently the only link between the different health care professionals, and very often the main source of information regarding performed procedures, diagnoses and treatment decisions.

A current challenge facing all health care stakeholders, including policy makers, practitioners, businesses, and patients, is to coordinate the available services and integrate care ensuring safety, effectiveness, and comprehensiveness in relation to the needs of individual users across the lifespan. Routine collected data can provide key information to completely assess a patient's health status and thus help evaluating and deciding adapted steps in treatment to stabilize or improve clinical outcomes.

In France, the Dossier Medical Partagé (Shared Medical Record) represents an effort to centralize and improve accessibility, to patients and professionals alike, of medical information. This system is yet little adopted and there is the need for added value initiatives to exploit the tool's potential. In other countries, like the UK, the governmental unit NHSX develops public policies and good practices for the digital transformation of the NHS. In the United States, working groups like the Health Information Technology Working Group, in the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, develop electronic care plans using Electronic Health Record data for chronic kidney disease patients. These initiatives, among others, show the necessity of simple, visual communication in order to build a comprehensive care delivery pathway to inform decision and further care planning, according to health goals set by shared decision-making.

This study aims to describe individual experiences of chronic care delivery of people living with diabetes and also from healthcare professionals working in diabetes care from 3 different domains: clinical (relevant clinical criteria necessary for the decision-making process, goal setting and planning), technological (tools used in routine practice and in patients' daily lives), and behavioural (behaviours and interactions that build the patient's pathway and strategies implemented by patients and professionals to help the decision-making process).

What participants receive

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

  • Description of patients' experiences of diabetes care delivery and planningOther

    Semi-directed interviews will be conducted with people living with type 1 or type 2 diabetes in person or by phone to assess and describe the care delivery pathway they have been through. Information on 3 domains will be assessed: clinical (information they consider essential for health care professionals to systematically have access to during consultations and other health-related interventions such as therapeutic education sessions), technological (what kind of digital services and technologies they use or are willing to use), and behavioural (the decision-making process and the key interactions that build the care delivery pathway).

  • Description of health care professionals needs and experiences in diabetes care delivery and planningOther

    Semi-directed interviews will be conducted with health care professionals working in diabetes care in person or by phone to assess and describe their needs and experiences in diabetes care. Information on 3 domains will be assessed: clinical (the information they consider to be essential to inform decisions in diabetes care, where and if they currently find that information and problems they might encounter), technological (which software they currently use and how data is input into clinical information systems), and behavioural (how care coordination is currently managed, how interactions with patients and other professionals are undertaken).

What is being measured

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

  1. Description of individual experiences of patients and health care professionals in diabetes care.

    Socioeconomic status will be assessed, health literacy using the Brief Health Literacy Screening (BHLS), and a semi-directed interview will be undertaken with people living with type 1 or type 2 diabetes. The latter aims t obtain a description of their experiences concerning how their care delivery pathways were built over time, how health-related decisions are made individually and what data they consider health care professionals they interact with should systematically have access to (considering the 3 domains previously described). Health care professionals will also be interviewed regarding their experiences and needs in diabetes care, in the shared decision-making process and in establishing care coordination.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Diabete Type 1 and Diabete Type 2, run by Hospices Civils de Lyon at 1 site in France.

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 9 inclusion and 5 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?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Mar 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. 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?

Description of individual experiences of patients and health care professionals in diabetes care. (time frame: The moment of the interview (Day 0)). 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?
