Randomized Trial of Supplemental Synchronous and Asynchronous Telehealth to Improve Glycemic Control for Pediatric Patients With Type 1 Diabetes

Description

This study will test the hypothesis that supplemental synchronous video visits and supplemental asynchronous remote monitoring can each significantly improve glycemic control for pediatric patients with uncontrolled type 1 diabetes over a 6 month period, and will compare health outcomes and patient-centered outcomes between these two intervention arms and a control arm receiving usual care.

Conditions

Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1

Eligibility Criteria

  • 1. age 5-18 years
  • 2. diagnosis of type 1 diabetes with a duration of \>12 months
  • 3. suboptimal glycemic control at time of enrollment, defined as a hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) level \> 8% (64 mmol/mol) or a 14-day glucose management index (GMI) of \>8% from continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) data or 14-day average blood glucose of \>200 mg/dl in the preceding month
