Change in mean HbA1c (NGSP%) from baseline to immediate post-intervention, 6 months post-intervention, 12 months post-intervention, and 18 months post-intervention |
A Siemens analyzer will be utilized to calculate HbA1c (%) for each participant at every time point (except for 18 months post-intervention, which will be collected through medical record abstractions). Changes in the primary outcome measure will be assessed from baseline to each follow-up time point. The primary analytic approach will use general linear models, including mixed effects linear regression models for continuous repeated measures, to model the mean outcome difference and covariance structures between the treatment arms. Analyses will be adjusted for baseline differences in demographic, socioeconomic, and clinical variables, all within repeated mixed linear regression models. Clustering effects within the intervention delivery groups (i.e., within the DSMES classes) will be accounted for in the model as a random effect. We will adjust for potential clinic variations as a dummy coded variable in our model. |
