Comparative Effectiveness of Family DSMES and Standard DSMES Among Diverse Populations

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The investigators conducted a comparative effectiveness randomized controlled trial comparing a family model diabetes self-management education and support intervention (Family-DSMES) and a standard model DSMES intervention (Standard-DSMES). The trial included 550 persons with type 2 diabetes mellitus (PWD) and 550 of their family members/support persons. PWD were randomly assigned to either the Family-DSMES arm or the Standard-DSMES arm. In the Family-DSMES arm, the family members/support persons of the PWD took part in the educational sessions. In the Standard-DSMES arm, the family members/support persons did not participate in educational sessions or goal setting. Both interventions were delivered in a group setting via telehealth. Baseline, immediate post-intervention (12 weeks) and 6 months post-intervention data were collected from PWD and family members/support persons in both study arms. In both study arms, we obtained a medical records release to abstract the primary outcome at 12 months post-intervention and 18 months post-intervention for PWD. The primary outcome was change in Hemoglobin A1c between baseline and immediate post-intervention among PWD.
