Personalized Comprehensive Diabetes Support for Children With Newly Diagnosed Type 1 Diabetes
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if access to a diabetes coach improves quality of life (QOL) for families of children with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes. The main questions it aims to answer are:
-
Determine if there are beneficial effects on diabetes-related QOL at the end of the 6-month intervention.
-
Determine if potential beneficial effects persist beyond completion of the support intervention, as measured by diabetes-related QOL at 12 months and 24 months following diagnosis
Participants assigned to the intervention group will have access to a diabetes coach for 6 months following type 1 diabetes diagnosis. They will be compared to participants who are assigned to the control group and are receiving usual care.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Diabetes Distress Scale [24 months]
The Distress Scale (DDS) uses a 6-point Likert scale to quantify diabetes-related stress. Scores can range from 0 to 72. A higher score indicates higher distress.
- Problem Areas in Diabetes (PAID) [24 months]
The Problem Areas in Diabetes (PAID) uses a 6-point Likert scale to quantify diabetes-related stress. Scores can range from 0 to 100. A higher score indicates higher distress.
