Mindfulness-Based Diabetes Education for Adults With Elevated Diabetes Distress
Completed · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Type 2 Diabetes
In brief
Diabetes distress is common affecting over one-third of people with type 2 diabetes, negatively impacting self-management and outcomes, and disproportionately affecting low-income individuals. The proposed project will conduct a pilot randomized controlled trial comparing Mindfulness-Based Diabetes Education to standard Diabetes Self-Management Education in adults with type 2 diabetes and elevated diabetes distress who receive care within safety-net healthcare systems in order to assess feasibility and acceptability.
