Gluten Sensor Device to Promote Gluten Free Diet Adherence and Quality of Life in Patients With Celiac Disease
Completed · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Celiac Disease
In brief
The current treatment for celiac disease is a strict 100% gluten free diet. Little is known about the best way to promote adherence to such a strict diet and how to maximize quality of life at the same time. This pilot will look at the utility of a new innovation to promote gluten free diet adherence - a portable gluten sensor device. Participants will be 30 teenagers and adults with celiac disease recruited from the Celiac Disease Center at Columbia University in New York City. Before and after the intervention, participants will be asked about their adherence to a gluten free diet, quality of life, symptoms, and feelings of anxiety, and depression. This pilot data will help to inform interventions that the investigators hope to test in a larger NIH-funded trial to better understand the best ways to promote adherence and quality of life in celiac patients.

You may qualify if…
- Individuals >13 years old (15 teenagers and 15 adults), 30 in total with duodenal biopsy-confirmed diagnosis of celiac disease will be recruited to participate.
- As we are testing a gluten sensor device, we require that participants are 13 years or older as they will need to be able to operate the gluten sensor device independently
You may not qualify if…
