Qatar Diabetes Mobile Application Trial (QDMAT)

12 de fevereiro de 2020 atualizado por: Hamad Medical Corporation
Diabetes mobile technology is an emerging and rapidly expanding field that seeks to combine cutting edge behavioral insights with best practice in diabetes self management education to improve patient empowerment and deliver better patient outcomes.The question that arises is whether or not, diabetes mobile applications are effective in improving glycemic control, clinical outcomes, quality of life and overall patient satisfaction, in diabetic patients in Qatar. To answer this, we plan to enroll 90 diabetic patients into a custom-made diabetes app for Qatar (Droobi) (as intervention group) in comparison with 90 diabetic patients followed in the current standard care, matched in characteristics (as control group). We have the hypothesis that with utilization of the mobile application, patients will have improved glycemic control, improved self management and patient empowerment; together with improved patient-educator/doctor interaction.

Como o estudo é projetado?

Detalhes do projeto

  • Finalidade Principal: Cuidados de suporte
  • Alocação: Randomizado
  • Modelo Intervencional: Atribuição Paralela
  • Mascaramento: Nenhum (rótulo aberto)

Armas e Intervenções

Grupo de Participantes / Braço
Intervenção / Tratamento
Comparador Ativo: Intervention arm

For the subjects using the app (intervention group): The mobile app team shall do the following:

  • Educate/train patients on app usage
  • Patients will be subscribed to the app and their profile on the app will be created
  • Subjects will log in their blood sugar readings and communicate with the mobile app team (educators and physician) via the app
  • Additionally patients will be placed on a diet and lifestyle plan as agreed upon by the patient and health care provider team, best suited towards the patient's needs
  • Throughout the study, patient will receive notifications and advice on how to follow diet and lifestyle changes
  • Throughout the study; patient interaction and app usage will be tracked
  • Patients will additionally be interviewed by the research team together with Droobi to capture app experience at 3 months and 6 months
A new mobile application, specifically built for the diabetes patients in Qatar with the help of local expertise.
Standard of care including physicians, dietetics and diabetes educators support
Comparador de Placebo: Standard of care arm

For the subjects not using the app (the standard of care group):

  • At time 0, will be seen by the dietician and diabetes educators at HGH endocrine clinics as part of standards of care
  • The educators contact number and diabetes hotline number will be provided to the patients

    o The diabetes hotline number #16099 is a new service provided to diabetes patients at the national diabetes center to help communicate with the diabetes educators with questions relating to their diabetes management, medication adjustment such as dose titrations etc.

  • Appointments thereafter with the educator and/or dietician will be decided and scheduled according to the individual patient needs, with a minimum visit every 3 months during the study period
Standard of care including physicians, dietetics and diabetes educators support

Medidas de resultados secundários

Medida de resultado
Descrição da medida
Prazo
Subject perceptions of diabetes self management
Prazo: 6 months
Within subject changes in perceptions of diabetes self-management as assessed by diabetes self-management questionnaire (DSMQ) scores subsection glucose management and overall rating. DSM-Q is a 16 item questionnaire to assess self-care activities associated with glycemic control. Four subscales, 'Glucose Management' (GM), 'Dietary Control' (DC), 'Physical Activity' (PA), and 'Health-Care Use' (HU), as well as a 'Sum Scale' (SS) as a global measure of self-care. Scale scores are calculated as sums of item scores and then transformed to a scale ranging from 0 to 10 (raw score / theoretical maximum score * 10. A transformed score of ten thus represents the highest self-rating of the assessed behavior
6 months
Change in subjects attitudes towards disease
Prazo: 6 months
Within subject changes in attitudes towards disease assessed the proportion of subjects with diabetes distress scales (DDS) scores consistent with moderate or high distress.The DDS yields a total distress score plus 4 subscale (emotional burden,physical distress, regimen distress and interpersonal distress) scores each addressing a different kind of distress. A mean item score 2.0-2.9 is considered moderate distress and a mean score of more than or equal to 3 is considered high stress.
6 months

Prazo: 6 months
Difference in number of recommended insulin dose adjustments per subject between intervention and usual care arm
6 months
Changes in reported hypoglycemia
Prazo: 6 months
Difference in the number of reported hypoglycemic events per subject between the intervention and usual care arm.

Descrição da medida
Prazo
Exploratory outcome
Prazo: 6 months
Increased mobile application usability by the system usability scale (SUS) at 6 months. It consists of a 10 item questionnaire with five response options for respondents; from Strongly agree to Strongly disagree. The participant's scores for each question are converted to a new number, added together and then multiplied by 2.5 to convert the original scores of 0-40 to 0-100. An SUS score above a 68 would be considered above average and anything below 68 is below average, however the best way to interpret the results involves "normalizing" the scores to produce a percentile ranking
