Actual (reported)The study objective is to evaluate the feasibility of delivering a risk communication intervention, Peer comparison-based Risk Communication (PRICOM), in the primary care setting for adults with poor T2DM control. Findings from the study will inform further revisions to PRICOM and provide an estimated effect size to estimate the required sample size for a multi-site trial.

The intervention group will attend a risk communication session delivered by the study team and will receive a diabetes pamphlet. This estimated to take 10-15 minutes and will be back-to-back with the patient's routine clinic appointment.
The control group will receive a diabetes pamphlet at their routine clinic appointment but will not attend a PRICOM session.
Based on the Health Belief Model, a risk communication intervention, Peer comparison-based Risk Communication (PRICOM), was developed for primary care physicians to counsel patients with T2DM on their glycaemic control and the complications that could arise, and to recommend ways to improve glycaemic control and prevent complications (or further complications). This will be supported by information from an AI (Artificial Intelligence) based diabetes tool. PRICOM aims to promote health actions in patients with T2DM by increasing their risk perceptions of diabetes complications.
