Diabetes Toolkit at Discharge
March 11, 2024 updated by: Amisha Wallia, Northwestern University
Implementation and Testing of a Diabetes Discharge Intervention to Improve Safety During Transitions of Care
The purpose of this randomized clinical trial is to implement the DM Discharge Toolkit into hospital discharge and assess the effect of the DM Discharge Toolkit on patients newly requiring insulin.

Detailed Description
This study is a randomized controlled trial with a parallel group design of up to 120 study participants in a 1:1 ratio to receive either current standard of care discharge DM training (control) or current standard of care discharge DM training and the DM Discharge Toolkit (intervention) before or immediately after being sent home to assume self-DM care with insulin.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: DM Discharge Toolkit
Up to 60 participants will be recruited for the intervention group.
Participants will receive the current standard of care DM education for insulin at Northwestern Memorial Hospital and the adjunctive education with the DM Discharge Toolkit.
|
The DM Discharge Toolkit is a multi-modal intervention consisting of a 3-D printed DM survival "kit" that stores DM self-care supplies (e.g., glucose meter) and technical skills (e.g., injection) simulation materials (e.g.
simulation skin), whose use is integrated with a website (https://mydiabeteskit.com) containing standardized DM "Survival" education content.
|
No Intervention: Current Standard of Care Discharge DM Training
Up to 60 participants will be recruited for the control group.
Participants will receive the current standard of care DM education for insulin use during current discharge care processes at Northwestern Memorial Hospital.
