Real-time Engagement for Learning to Effectively Control Type 2 Diabetes
Starting soon · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, Lifestyle, Hyperglycemia, Physical Inactivity
In brief
This is a clinical trial that includes a run-in period, a 90 day micro-randomized trial, and a 90-day observational period. The goal of this study is to evaluate whether providing paired real time glycemic and health behavior data in a smartphone app leads to better glycemic control among adolescents and young adults with T2D. Glycemic control will be monitored using Continuous Glucose Monitors (CGM), and health behavior data will be collected via a Fitbit activity tracker and a research app (Healthmine). Participants will be prompted to view and reflect on glycemic trends and health behavior data (Fitbit data, logging of diet and medication adherence) during the 90-day micro-randomized trial period, then observed for ongoing use of the Healthmine app and engagement with CGM in the following 90-day observation period.
