NCT03466398

Brief Summary

This study will use a randomized, crossover design. Children aged 13-18 years who have been diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes for at least 1 year and with at least 2 Hemoglobin A1c values ≥10.0% more than 60 days apart within the past year, with the most recent HbA1c value between 10-14%, will be placed into two separate treatment groups. Group A will undergo home monitoring for 12 weeks through the use of the Vivify kit, which contains a wireless tablet with daily medication/diet/symptom questionnaires. Group B will initially continue diabetes management per standard of care, including quarterly office visits. After a period of 12 weeks, Group B will switch to the RPM protocol, while Group A will return to standard of care. Both groups will have HbA1c values checked at the 0, 3, and 6 month time periods to assess the effect of the remote monitoring protocol. Participation in the RPM protocol will involve daily completion of the Care Plan questions, as well as weekly uploads of blood glucose values using the Glooko, Inc (Mountain View, CA) application, and weekly video visits with a member of the endocrinology team that will aim to address barriers to optimal care, whether they be motivation, knowledge or other difficulties. Barriers to care will be assessed in part through the completion of knowledge and self-efficacy assessments.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Hemoglobin A1c

    To determine whether 12 weeks of participation in a remote monitoring protocol utilizing remote glucose data uploads and video visits through a mobile device improves glycemic control as measured by Hemoglobin A1c in adolescents with poorly controlled Type 1 Diabetes.

    3 months

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Diabetes Knowledge Test 2 (DKT2) score

    6 months

  • Self-Management of Type 1 Diabetes in Adolescence (SMOD-A) score

    6 months

  • DKA Admission Rates

    6 months

Study Arms (2)

Intervention Arm

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients will use the Vivify Health RPM protocol as part of their diabetes management. They required to complete the Care Plan questions on a daily basis, and will upload blood glucose readings directly to the tablet twice a day. They will also have scheduled video conferences with study team physicians or advanced practice nurses on a weekly basis, to discuss ongoing diabetes management and educational objectives.

Behavioral: Vivify Health RPM Protocol

Control Arm

NO INTERVENTION

Patients in this arm will manage their diabetes at home per normal standard of care, without any extra intervention from the study investigators.

Interventions

The Vivify RPM Protocol includes a wireless tablet and glucometer/Bluetooth device that can directly upload blood glucose readings to the tablet. Patients will daily Care Plan questionnaires on the tablet, as well as upload blood glucose readings twice a day. The tablets will also be used for weekly video conferences with study investigators.
