Summary

This work is testing a shared medical decision making intervention for adolescents with type 1 diabetes and their parents who are candidates for adding either an insulin pump or continuous glucose monitor to their treatment plan. The first half of the work consisted of the stakeholder driven design, construction and refinement of web-delivered multimedia decision aids for each of these decisions. The randomized controlled trial of that intervention began enroling participants in February 2015. A sample of 166 eligible adolescents who receive care at an operating entity of the Nemours Children's Health System will be enrolled and randomized to either Usual Clinical Practice alone or augmented by the Shared Medical Decision Making intervention. Primary outcomes include measures of engagement with the pertinent technology if it is chosen and measures of decision quality; Secondary outcomes include indices of metabolic control, quality of life and parent-adolescent relationships around diabetes management.
