Registration Number
NCT06516640
Lead Sponsor
Children's Hospital Los Angeles
Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the Impact of Continuous Glucose Monitoring Academy Education Curriculum Versus Standard Care on Glycemic Outcomes for Youth With Type 2 Diabetes (T2D):

* The first aim is to determine how feasible it is to adapt the Continuous Glucose Monitoring Academy curriculum to teach youth with T2D glucose management strategies.

* The second aim is to evaluate the effects of the Continuous Glucose Monitoring Academy metrics.

* The third aim is to explore the relationships between these metrics with diabetes distress, diabetes family responsibilities, and process metrics.

Participants will join for a total of four weeks of education, followed by a six-month clinical review. They will have access to an online workbook and videos, and will participate in virtual sessions with a diabetes educator who will cover glucose management strategies in-depth. Participants will wear their preferred Continuous Glucose Monitoring system (Dexcom or FreeStyle Libre) provided via insurance and inserted at the baseline visit.

Change in perceived diabetes distress at baseline, week 4 & 6 monthsBaseline, Week 4 & 6 months

The Type 2 Diabetes Distress Assessment System (T2-DDAS) measures how much overall emotional distress is due to diabetes. Respondents are given statements about diabetes-related issues and indicate on a 5-point Likert scale (0 = not a problem, 1 = minor problem, 2 = moderate problem, 3 = somewhat serious problem, 4 = serious problem) the degree to which the statements are a problem. Increasing scores denote increased burden perceived.

Change in perceived diabetes family responsibility at baseline, week 4 & 6 monthsBaseline, week 4 & 6 months

The Diabetes Family Responsibility Questionnaire (DFRQ) is a 14-item validated survey assessing parental and child involvement in various diabetes management tasks. Youth and caregivers report on a 3-point scale (1=child, 2=equal, 3=parent) who is responsible for a given diabetes task. Higher scores indicate more parental involvement in diabetes management.
