Presessions for the National Diabetes Prevention Program

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Prediabetic State, Obesity, Gestational Diabetes

In brief

The National Diabetes Prevention Program (NDPP) is a widely available, evidence-based intervention that promotes weight loss to prevent type 2 diabetes; however, participant attendance is problematic and leads to suboptimal weight loss, especially among Hispanic, non-Hispanic black, and low-income non-Hispanic white participants. An innovative pre-session enhancement to the NDPP (Pre-NDPP) showed successful results upon initial application in a diverse and predominately low-income population, with doubled attendance and weight loss outcomes as compared to previous NDPP participants who did not receive a pre-session. If Pre-NDPP is shown to be successful upon more rigorous study, it can be widely adopted by NDPP providers across the country to help reduce diabetes prevalence and related health disparities.
