PREDHICT: Precision Recruitment and Engagement of Diabetics and Hypertensives in Clinical Studies
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
For the sub-study, this digital navigation tool will both inform/educate, engage, support, and navigate participants and providers through the process of clinical trial participation via personalization (data profiling, adaptive and customized messaging, and tailored digital navigation) in a sample of 100 participants with diabetes and hypertension.

Detailed Description
To identify provider- and system-level facilitators (solutions) of clinical trial participation that can be in corporated in the digital navigation tool. We will pay special emphasis on the behavior research volunteerism and altruism and individuals who are at risk for cardio metabolic conditions. To develop solutions that will address patient-, provider and system-level barriers preventing clinical trial participation Objective 2: To test the adherence, feasibility, and efficacy of a research volunteerism and altruism component of a health and wellness web app. that provides personalized newsfeeds and curriculum about research and health-related volunteer and altruistic activities versus traditional patient navigation procedures and resources in clinical trial awareness.'awareness/knowledge, attitudes, willingness to participate in clinical trial, self-efficacy, and share knowledge about clinical trial opportunities to social network. To determine which elements of the digital tool and mobil app are associated with increased awareness/knowledge, intent to participate, and contagion

Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Active Comparator: Control group Participants will receive non-personalized information (one-size-fits-all) diet, sleep and physical activity recommendations via messaging delivered by app. |
Behavioral: control group
will receive standard medical care where research assistant will give pamphlets, with one size fits all recommendations for diet/nutrition, physical activity and sleep, to 10 subjects with comorbid HTN and T2D.
|
| Experimental: Intervention Group Participants will receive personalized messages about achieving healthy diet, physical activity and sleep as well as summary of their performance for the week and month. They will also receive personalized content about research volunteerism and altruistic activities. |
Behavioral: Lifestyle management
Will use passive ubiquitous sensing through FitBit to 1)learn behavioral profiles of subjects who have pre-HTN/HTN and/or pre-diabetes /Diabetes 2) provide personalized recommendations through mobile based messaging app that will increase the likelihood of engaging in health diet/nutrition, physical activity and sleep practices

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Change in clinical trials participation Change in User Adherence [Baseline Visit, 4 week follow up visit, 6 month follow up visit]
Will show that one-size-fits-all versus personalization leads to greater adherence. Adherence will be based on whether the subject met the daily and weekly behavior recommendations.
- Change in glucose level Change in blood pressure [Baseline Visit, 4 week follow up visit, 6 month follow up visit]
The amount of sugar levels will be determined the Harris-Benedict Calculator, which consists of height, weight, weight age and activity levels
- Change in body mass index Change in blood pressure [Baseline Visit, 4 week follow up visit, 6 month follow up visit]
Change in body mass index will be determined by the self reported information the vb=vodt
- Change in physical activity [Baseline Visit, 4 week follow up visit, 6 month follow up visit]
FitBit tracking will measure increase in physical activity adherence.
- Change in physical activity by self-report [Baseline Visit, 4 week follow up visit, 6 month follow up visit]
Increase in physical activity will be measured by self-report diaries collected by study staff through health and wellness app platforms.
