Diabetes Multimorbidity Typology, Trajectory, and Feasibility of an Audio Diary Mobile Application to Support Self-management
Sponsored by Emory University
About this study
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether an audio diary mobile application (Fabla-diabetesMM) is feasible to use and may support self-management in older adults with type 1 or 2 diabetes and multimorbidity. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is it feasible to adapt and implement the Fabla-diabetesMM audio diary mobile app among 30 older adults with diabetes and multimorbidity * Does the use of the audio diary mobile app affect self-management outcomes
Multimorbidity, defined as the presence of two or more chronic health conditions, is increasingly common among adults aging with long-term illnesses. Diabetes is one of the most prevalent chronic conditions contributing to multimorbidity and is associated with a wide range of complications, including cardiovascular disease, kidney disease, neuropathy, mental health symptoms, and functional decline. Many individuals with diabetes also live with additional chronic conditions such as hypertension, arthritis, or mood disorders, which together create complex care needs and daily symptom challenges. Although multimorbidity is known to increase healthcare utilization, costs, and burden on individuals and caregivers, the specific patterns, trajectories, and risk factors associated with diabetes-re…
