The Diabetes Patient-Reported Outcome Measures Trial (DiaPROM)

May 11, 2021 updated by: Haukeland University Hospital

The Use of Patient-Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs) to Promote Quality of Clinical Diabetes Consultations

The study aim to evaluate the use of Patient-Reported Outcome Measures in clinical diabetes consultations.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Withdrawn

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

The psychological and emotional impact of living with diabetes is greatly underreported in clinical diabetes care, and diabetes distress is found to be associated with decreased glycemic control. Therefore, regular assessment of diabetes distress is recommended. The integration of assessments with Patient-Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs) in clinical practice has the potential to enhance care for people with diabetes by identifying problems and improving patient-clinician communication. The overall aim of the DiaPROM trial is to develop, test and evaluate the effectiveness of a structured empowerment-based intervention with the use of a PROM regarding diabetes distress as a tool for needs assessment and dialogue support in clinical diabetes consultations among adults with Type 1 Diabetes. The investigator's hypothesis is that the intervention primarily will reduce diabetes distress and secondarily improve overall well-being, improve the perceived competence for diabetes management, improve glycemic control, and improve satisfaction with the diabetes follow-up.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 39 years (Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Experimental: PAID in clinical diabetes consultations
Participants randomised to the intervention arm. Participants complete the Problem Area in Diabetes scale (PAID) and evaluation PROMs. Participants with specified PAID scores will be offered an empowerment-based follow-up by diabetes specialist nurses.
Other: PAID in clinical diabetes consultations

The intervention starts when participants complete PROMs before an annual consultation. The physician reviews the PAID (problem areas in diabetes scale) scores with the participant. Participants with one or more single PAID item(s) scored 3 or 4, or a PAID score ≥30, will be referred to extra follow-up which will consist of at least two diabetes nurse consultations. The nurses will follow a communication manual based on key elements from empowerment theory and self-determination theory.

The participants then complete the PROMs prior to the next annual consultation with the physician.

Other Names:
  • DiaPROM
No Intervention: Control group
Participants randomised to the control group. Participants complete PROMs but the results/answers will not be available in the electronic patient records until the trial is finished. The participants will receive standard care.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in Diabetes Distress Scale (DDS)
Time Frame: Baseline, 12 months and 24 months.
Self reported diabetes-related distress. 17 items are scored on a 6 point Likert scale from 1 "not a problem" to 6 "very serious problem". Scores are summated and divided by 17 to form a mean/average score. There are also four subscales; emotional burden (5 items), physician-related distress (4 items), regimen-related distress (5 items) and interpersonal distress (3 items). The subscale scores are calculated similar to the total score except for dividing by the number of items for each subscale. A total DDS-score or subscale score of more than 3 is regarded as high degree of diabetes distress. Whilst a score of 2 indicate moderate diabetes distress and a score of 1 is considered as low degree of diabetes distress.
Baseline, 12 months and 24 months.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in The World Health Organisation 5-wellbeing scale (WHO-5)
Time Frame: Baseline, 12 months and 24 months.
Self reported emotional wellbeing. 5 items are scored on a 6 point Likert scale from 0 "never" to 5 "all of the time". Scores are summated. Raw score 0 to 25 is transformed to 0-100 by multiplying by 4. Higher values represent better outcome. A score of 50 or below is indicate suboptimal well-being. A score of 28 or below is considered as likely depression.
Baseline, 12 months and 24 months.
Change in Perceived Competence for Diabetes Scale (PCDS)
Time Frame: Baseline, 12 months and 24 months.
Self report of the individuals perceptions of competence for diabetes. 4 items are scored on a 7 point Likert scale from 1 "strongly disagree" to 7 "strongly agree". Scores are summated and divided by 4 to form a mean/average score. Higher score indicate better perceived diabetes competence.
Baseline, 12 months and 24 months.
Change in Glycosylated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c)
Time Frame: Baseline, 12 months and 24 months.
Blood test: HbA1c refers to glycated hemoglobin, which identifies average plasma glucose concentration. Higher values indicate worse outcome.
Baseline, 12 months and 24 months.
