Comparative Effectiveness of POC-A1c vs the Current Standard Based on OGTT for Early Detection DM2 in Colombia
- Conditions
- Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2
- Interventions
- Other: Point of Care - Glycated Hemoglobin (A1c)Other: Oral Glucose Tolerance Test
- Registration Number
- NCT05440968
- Lead Sponsor
- Humberto Reynales MD MSc PhD
- Brief Summary
Evaluate the impact of conducting a screening questionnaire (FINDRISC) and the implementation of a point-of-care HBA1c test for those with identified risk to suffer Diabetes in ten years, to improve the proportion of patients attending for a confirmatory test ( oral glucose tolerance test ) and evaluate the impact of such a strategy to minimize type 2 diabetes outcomes.
- Detailed Description
The physician explains the study´s consistency and obtains informed consent. If the patient accepts, the FINDRISC will be checked, the inclusion and exclusion criteria will be verified and the pertinent data from the patient's medical history will be recorded in a computer.
Subsequently, subjects will be included in the study and randomized into two groups. In group A (intervention) participants will be offered information on healthy lifestyles according to their score on the FINDRISC questionnaire and subsequently a POC-A1c measurement. Participants in group B (control) will be offered the same information on healthy lifestyles according to their FINDRISC score.
Additionally, all randomized participants will be invited to undergo an oral glucose tolerance test in the CAIMED allied laboratory or in the laboratory of their choice or through their health care provider with the necessary preparation recommendations for the performance of the test. For this purpose, they will be given an order that includes the date of the screening, a follow-up number and a window of time in which they should go (i.e., 30 days and with a second attempt - maximum window at 90 days).
After 30 days from the application of the screening from the delivery of the order for the OGTT, a call will be made to the randomized subjects to check the result of the OGTT if the test was taken and request its result in case it was taken, if the test was taken, it should refer the same to the center. Otherwise, the causes of loss to follow-up will be inquired not having previously performed the recommended OGTTand a new call will be made at 90 days. In patients who, if they attended the OGTT and obtained a presumptive result of diabetes (defined as an altered oral glucose tolerance test and/or altered POC - A1C test according to American Diabetes Association guidelines), a close call will be made 30 days after the test was performed to confirm whether they initiated control of their disease. For this, it will be indicated to them that they must attend a consultation by general medicine according to what is contemplated by their benefit plan administration entity, social security administrator, giving completion to the follow-up.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Attendance of patients with knowledge of their risk for diabetes type 2 to a confirmatory test, oral glucose tolerance test up to 90 days Through follow up calls and report of oral glucose tolerance test, compare the attendance arm who had Point of care of A1C with the one who didn´t
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Number of days that determine the application of POC-A1c compared to the current recommendations from the American Academy of Diabetes (OGTT). 30 to 90 days Through follow up calls and report of oral glucose tolerance test, compare the attendance arm who had Point of care of Hb1Ac with the one who didn´t
Describe the causes of non-performance of the confirmatory test throughout a brief questionnaire up to 90 days Identification of predictors of non-performance or postponement of the diagnostic test within a maximum of 90 days from the initial recommendation.
number of patients attending the confirmatory testing as adherence to their primary care physician's recommendations and clinical practice guidelines 30 and 90 days Through follow up calls and report of oral glucose tolerance test, in a window stablished by 30 and 90 days. Compare the attendace arm who had Point of care of Hb1Ac with the one who didn´t
