Novel mHealth Physical Activity Intervention for Youth With Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus

Recruiting
Conditions
Type 1 Diabetes
Registration Number
NCT06018844
Lead Sponsor
Children's Mercy Hospital Kansas City
Brief Summary

The goal of this longitudinal cohort study is to learn about a mHealth intervention in Type 1 Diabetes (T1D)

The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are:

* Does the intervention increase the amount of text messages between the mHealth software and participants?

* Do the text messages from the Nudge software increase moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) in participants?

* Does the MVPA encouraged by the Nudge software improve the HbA1c levels of participants?

Participants will:

* Receive text messages from the Nudge software

* Report physical activity goals via the text messages to the Nudge software

* Wear both an accelerometer and an actigraph for three weeks (spread out across the beginning, 30 days, and 90 days of participation)

* Complete surveys at the beginning of participation

* Complete daily surveys while wearing the devices

* Complete surveys at the end of participation

* Record physical activity in study surveys
