Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if behavioral health coaching for rural veterans with diabetes and depression will improve self-management behaviors and lead to improvement in diabetes care outcomes (e.g., HA1C) and improvement in reported depressive symptoms.


Clinical Trial Description

The co-occurence of diabetes and depression is highly prevalent and has dramatic consequences for quality of life and health. Due to the complex interrelation between diabetes and depression, patients often experience both psychological and physiological difficulties. These comorbid problems demand focused interventions that blend physical and emotional health treatments with self-management strategies.Rural-dwelling veterans with diabetes and depression are typically treated in community-based outpatient clinics (CBOCs). Patients with diabetes in rural areas tend to have more problems controlling their blood sugar, blood pressure and cholesterol compared to urban patients; thereby increasing their risk of diabetic complications. Similarly, rural patients with depression have similar barriers to care that increase their risk of poorer health outcomes as well. Using behavioral health coaches (BHCs)to deliver telephone-mediated therapies may enhance the reach of treatments for co-occurring diabetes and depression. The implementation of such treatments requires the development and testing of therapeutic manuals and BHC training protocols to ensure standardization and effectiveness. The BHC intervention has been labeled Health Outcomes through Patient Empowerment (HOPE) and will be offered to eligible patients receiving care through MEDVAMC and its CBOCs. Preliminary data obtained through this pilot grant is to support a larger VA grant. ;
