Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Not yet recruiting

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

Patients with type 2 diabetes may experience improvements in their blood glucose levels thanks to mHealth technologies like mobile apps and telehealth text messaging. The goal of this intervention is to help diabetic people better control their blood glucose levels and diabetes. The intervention arm will employ a smartphone application designed specifically for individuals with Type 2 diabetes, with the goal of improving their self-management behaviors. Features of the app include real-time health monitoring, appointment scheduling, medication tracking, patient data storage, treatment and follow-up recommendations, and health education and promotion.

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.

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
Diabetes Self-Management
Time Frame: 6- months from baseline

DSMQ-R will assess Diabetes self-management. The DSMQ-R is a multidimensional questionnaire with 27 items regarding essential self-management practices for T1D and T2D (including diabetes-adjusted eating, glucose testing/monitoring, medication taking, physical activity, and cooperation with the diabetes team). 4 Subscales:

  • 'Glucose Management' (GM), 11 items: 1, 4, 6, 10, 12, 21, 22, 23, 24, 26, 27 (10 and 12 must be inverted).
  • 'Dietary Control' (DC), 7 items: 2, 5, 9, 13, 17, 18, 25 (5, 13 and 18 must be inverted).
  • 'Physical Activity' (PA), 3 items: 8, 11, 15 (11 and 15 must be inverted).
  • 'Health-Care Use' (HU), 4 items: 3, 7, 14, 19 (7 and 14 must be inverted). SCALE SCORE = ACTUAL SUM OF ITEMS / MAXIMUM POSSIBLE SUM OF ITEMS x 10
6- months from baseline

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
Hemoglobin A1C
Time Frame: 6- months from baseline
Hemoglobin A1C will be measured by taking blood samples.
6- months from baseline
Adherence to medication
Time Frame: 6- months from baseline
SEAMS URDU VERSION WILL BE USED FOR SEAMS Urdu version. It is of 13 questions with a score ranging from 13-39. Higher scores show better adherence
6- months from baseline
Health related quality of life
Time Frame: 6- months from baseline
Health-related quality of life will be assessed by EQ 5D3L. The EQ-5D-3L Index score summarizes each possible health state on a numerical scale ranging from -0.594 to 1, where a score of 1 indicates full health and scores of 0 and less than 0 indicate a state equivalent to being dead, and a state
6- months from baseline
