Aiming for Something Sweeter: Supporting Youth With Type 1 Diabetes During Transition From Pediatric to Adult Diabetes Care
The goal of this interventional study is to assess the effects and evaluate the implementation of a pediatric to adult care transition intervention in youth with T1D on clinical, patient-reported, and implementation outcomes, including an economic analysis.
The 3 main aims are:
1. To assess the effects of our transition intervention on clinical and patient-reported outcomes. 2. To implement the transition intervention and evaluate the implementation outcomes. 3. To evaluate the economic impacts of the transition intervention. Participants will have access to a transition coordinator before, during, and after their planned transition from pediatric to adult care as standard of care.
Researchers will compare a pre-intervention cohort to evaluate the impact of the transition coordinator intervention.
Inclusion: a diagnosis of T1D according to Diabetes Canada's guidelines for at least 12 months; aged 17 to 18 years; have had an appointment with their pediatric endocrinologist in the last 12 months; in the last year of pediatric care and transferring to adult care in Alberta within the next year; English proficiency (for surveys); Personal Health Number (PHN) for data linkage.
