Filter by:Background: In Singapore, the prevalence of diabetes mellitus was approximately 12.8% in 2014 and the prevalence was projected to rise to 22.7% in 2035. In view of the complexity of diabetes management, collaborative efforts by nurses and other allied health professionals such as dietitians and pharmacists have shown to play a significant role in improving clinical care of individuals with diabetes. Currently in Singapore, the effectiveness of the collaborative care model has only been evaluated prospectively in the primary and tertiary care settings involving clinical pharmacists. The impact of the unique, synergistic roles of community pharmacists with family physician on the clinical, humanistic and economic outcomes have yet to be elucidated. Aims: This study aims to evaluate the clinical, humanistic, and economic outcomes of a community pharmacist-involved collaborative care model in the management of individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Hypothesis: Incorporating community pharmacist into the care model with family physician and nurse can improve the clinical, humanistic, and economic outcomes of individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods: This study is a prospective, open label, parallel arm, randomized controlled trial. The study will be conducted over 6 months at a family medicine clinic in Singapore. Individuals aged 21 years and above, diagnosed with type 2 diabetes (HbA1c > 7.0%) and taking 5 or more chronic medications will be eligible. Individuals with Type 1 diabetes or who are unable to communicate independently in English, Mandarin or Malay will be excluded from this study. The participants will be randomly assigned to 2 groups using a random number generator or an equivalent: (1) Usual diabetes care with physician (control), (2) diabetes care with physician and community pharmacist (intervention). The community pharmacist will adopt the core elements of the medication therapy management model in reviewing the medications of participants as well as provide relevant lifestyle counselling and health education via a face-to-face consultation at the clinic and subsequently through telephonic correspondences. The primary outcome will be change in HbA1c over 6 months. Secondary outcomes include blood pressure, lipid markers, distress level, self-care capabilities, quality of life, productivity, and direct medical costs. Significance: The outcomes of the community pharmacist-involved collaborative care model will support future implementation and integration of this care model into the standard of care in Singapore so as to optimize the management of type 2 diabetes.
12 week study to assess the LDL-C lowering efficacy, other lipid and glycemic measures, and safety of bempedoic acid/ezetimibe FDC compared to ezetimibe and placebo in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and elevated LDL-C
The study evaluates analgesic, antiinflammatory and metabolic effects of Comarum palustre in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA) and diabetes mellitus. Patients with osteoarthritis will receive Comarum palustre together with conventional treatment of osteoarthritis and diabetes.
The primary goal of this study is to develop, implement, and test a community health worker (CHW) program designed to promote diabetes prevention among Korean and South Asian Americans in New York City. In particular, the specific aims of this study are: 1. To utilize community based participatory research (CBPR) methods to expand upon an existing campus-community partnership to develop and implement a CHW program among Korean and South Asian Americans that promotes diabetes prevention; 2. To develop, implement, and assess the efficacy of a CHW intervention to promote diabetes prevention and access to care among NYC Koreans and South Asians.
The Habitual Diet and Avocado Trial will evaluate the effects of providing one avocado per day for recommended consumption over a 6 month period in a cohort of approximately 1000 free-living participants with increased waist circumference in comparison with a control group that will maintain their habitual diets. Participants will be recruited and screened at 4 clinics in 4 locations: Pennsylvania State University; Loma Linda University; UCLA, and Tufts University (250 per site).
This pilot study aims to test the feasibility of providing incentives to patients with T2D contingent on remote biochemical verification using a smartphone carbon monoxide (CO) monitor. The investigators will use an ecological momentary assessment (EMA) smartphone application and CO sensor to monitor urges to smoke, stressors, smoking behaviors, and to validate continuous abstinence throughout the intervention. Two different contingency management structures will be explored to investigate the length of time incentives need to be offered.
The objective of the study is to investigate how exogenously administered glucagon affects hepatic lipid, glucose and protein metabolism as well as appetite, food intake and resting energy expenditure.
(Sisters Health And Primary CarE Uniting and Preventing Diabetes; aka SHAPE UP) will consist of: 1) Neighborhood DPP Intervention: group DPP sessions and individual coaching; 2) Preventive Care Coordination to FQHC: referral, navigation assistance, patient activation, linkage to primary care (community initiated referrals) and linkage to DPP program (FQHC initiated referrals)
The purpose of this pilot study is to test the feasibility of implementing a telehealth adaption of the Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) intervention among 30 NYC senior center members. The intervention will be conducted through 6 weekly webinars with a certified DPP coach. Participants will receive a binder and physical activity tracker to complete self-monitoring of diet and physical activity. The primary outcome is feasibility and acceptability of the intervention measured by workshop attendance and focus group feedback. Secondary outcomes include changes in diet, physical activity, and weight.
This trial is a randomized, multi-center, parallel-group, efficacy and safety study with a 26-weeks follow- up(after 2-week recruitment). The study aims to: 1)compare the effects of novel flash glucose monitoring system (FGMS) and conventional Self Measurement of Blood Glucose (SMBG); and 2) optimize integrated management for glycaemic control in adult patients with type 1 diabetes who are sub-optimally controlled.
