Enhancing Telemedicine for T2D (NCT06740435)

Pilot Study Enhancing Telemedicine Care Delivery for Adults With Complex Type 2 Diabetes

๐Ÿ”ต Active, Not Recruiting Observational / Diagnostic ๐Ÿ“‹ Clinical Research Protocol Sponsor: University of Pittsburgh

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

The goal of this pilot clinical trial is to assess feasibility of an intervention to deliver comprehensive, high-quality diabetes care through telemedicine among adults with type 2 diabetes who use insulin and have multiple chronic health conditions. The main question it aims to answer is: Is an enhanced telemedicine intervention for type 2 diabetes compared to usual telemedicine care feasible? Researchers will compare the enhanced telemedicine intervention to usual telemedicine care to see if there are differences in patient satisfaction or preliminary clinical outcomes. Participants will complete 2-3 telemedicine diabetes care visits over approximately 6 months, as well as complete survey measures with each diabetes care visit. Patients in the intervention group will also receive additional support, including pre-visit preparation phone calls, diabetes self-management education and support aligned with their visits, and post-visit follow-up calls.
