Detailní popis
The investigators developed a new psychoeducational treatment and education program - called FLASH - for diabetic patients on an intensive insulin therapy who use flash glucose monitoring (FGM).
FLASH is a self-management-based treatment and education program. It is designed to empower patients to adequately use FGM in daily life and to train patients how to analyze their glucose data. FLASH consists of four lessons (90 minutes each).
FLASH is tested in a randomized controlled trial (RCT) with a waiting-list control group since no certified and effective treatment and education program for FGM exists.
This study is a multi-center study. Study centers are specialized diabetes practices throughout Germany. Patients will be approached by their respective practice and informed about the study. Study measurements as well as the conduct of FLASH will take place at the respective practice.
Baseline measurement will take place prior to the beginning of FLASH. After completion of baseline measurement, all patients from one study center will be randomized centrally by the Research Institute of the Diabetes Academy Mergentheim (FIDAM). 2 weeks and 6 months after the completion of FLASH, follow-up measurements will be conducted at the respective study center.
HbA1c as a marker of glycemic control will be analyzed in a central laboratory. Time-in-range and the frequency and duration of hypo- and hyperglycemic episodes will be assessed via stored glucose data on patients FGM devices. The other secondary outcome measures will be assessed via psychometrically tested questionnaires or via patient files.

Experimentální: FLASH
Intervention: Conduct of the newly developed treatment and education program for patients with diabetes who use flash glucose monitoring (FLASH). FLASH consists of 4 lessons focusing on empowering patients to autonomously use flash glucose monitoring (FGM) in their daily routine. Patients learn to effectively interpret the different information provided by FGM in order to improve not only glycemic control but also to improve the implementation of insulin therapy in daily life. Psychological and motivational aspects of living with diabetes and handling of the FGM are addressed as well. |
Treatment and education program based on the self-management theory of behavioral medicine.
The program is delivered by certified and specially trained diabetes educators.
|
|
Žádný zásah: Waiting List
Diabetic patients using FGM receive treatment as usual until the last measurement point.
After completion of the study, they are offered participation in the FLASH program.

Hypoglycaemia Awareness
Časové okno: 6 months

The hypoglycemia awareness questionnaire provides a score indicating the severity of hypoglycaemia unawareness.
This scale ranges from 0 (maximum hypoglycaemia awareness) to 7 (minimum hypoglycaemia awareness), where a score of 4 suggests reduced hypoglycaemia awareness.
