Pilot Implementation Trial of Implementation Toolkits for Diabetes Coaching
Sponsored by Nemours Children's Clinic
About this study
The goal of this study is to learn if toolkits of implementation strategies (e.g., provider and staff education, clear plan for how to refer and bill) help pediatric type 1 diabetes medical and psychology providers deliver a behavioral intervention (Diabetes Coaching) to more families. The main questions this study aims to answer are: * Is it possible to put these toolkits of implementation strategies into place in one pediatric hospital? * Do providers and staff find these toolkits of implementation strategies acceptable? Participants will be type 1 diabetes professionals (endocrinologists, nurse practitioners, psychologists, scheduling and billing staff) at Nemours Children's Hospital Delaware. Participants will: * Attend educational and/or planning meetings * Receive email updates on referral data * Complete surveys * Complete an interview
Type 1 diabetes (T1D), one of the most prevalent chronic pediatric diseases in the United States, requires a complex treatment regimen. Youth with T1D, particularly adolescents, more frequently have higher glycemic levels. Less than 30% of youth achieve the recommended level of glycemic control. Compared to adults, youth are more at-risk for related complications (diabetic ketoacidosis) that can lead to heart disease, diabetic coma, and death. These complications often result from challenges completing T1D care tasks. Evidence-based behavioral interventions can increase T1D care task completion and lower glycemic levels (i.e., A1c). Integrating these interventions into standard T1D care may lead to better overall health for this population. Implementation science offers theory and rigorous…
