简要总结
The study used the Practical, Robust, Implementation and Sustainability Model (PRISM) with mixed methods to: redesign a diabetes survival skills education (DSSE) program (DM2Go) content and the processes for its inpatient delivery; and to evaluate the feasibility of integrating and implementing high-tech tablet computer-enabled delivery of the DSSE program for hospital inpatients within usual workflow by staff on general medical/surgical units (MSUs) and a behavioral health unit. The four study phases were: I) Interviews and focus groups with stakeholders to identify perceived barriers and facilitators for implementation; II) Redesign of the D2Go program to address usability issues and potential barriers and to optimize perceived facilitators; III) Development of implementation processes and a D2Go toolkit; IV) Conduct of a prospective cohort pilot study on three MSUs and one BHU.
详细描述
The investigators sought to determine the feasibility of integrating the Diabetes To Go inpatient DSSE program sustainably into ongoing hospital nursing unit processes for diabetes patient education and discharge planning. If successful, preliminary data generated will be used to develop a randomized controlled trial which will further assess program outcomes, including clinical and economic measures and potential for widespread dissemination.
The objectives of the R34 Diabetes To Go Inpatient proposal were to refine the Diabetes To Go program content based on user feedback and experience, as well as to design and develop processes to enhance the feasibility of integrated implementation within usual nursing unit workflow within one hospital belonging to a regional health system. A mixed-methods approach is used to leverage implementation science frameworks and human factors principles to make DSSE and discharge support more accessible, interactive and engaging for patients. The long-term goal of this research is to optimize scalable and sustainable solutions for DSSE delivery and for DM-related discharge support. This personalized approach leverages e-health technologies to pursue the following Specific Aims:
Aim 1: To refine and optimize the Diabetes To Go program content and implementation processes.
This will be achieved by applying user-centered interface design principles, content development in partnership with patients and providers, detailed process mapping for program integration into existing processes and workflow, and integrating mobile and e-health technology to support care transitions. The Practical, Robust, Implementation and Sustainability Model will guide implementation planning and evaluation.
Hypothesis 1. Diabetes To Go: will be optimized for patient and provider usability and integration into nursing unit workflow; will enhance patient self-care knowledge and skills; and will support the discharge transition process.

入选标准
- •Age > 18 yrs (lower limit of age for admission to MWHC adult units. All of the Diabetes To Go content is designed for adult learners)
- •English speaking (Diabetes To Go content is currently only available in English);
- •Diagnosis of diabetes mellitus (ICD9 250.xx/ICD-10-CM E08-E11) documented in the EMR
- •Admitted to one of the inpatient units (non-critical care adult medicine/surgery nursing units, including 1 psychiatry unit) where the study is being conducted
- •Willing and able to participate in the program.
- •Exclusion criteria:
- •Age < 18 years (MWHC does not admit minors to its Medicine units and Diabetes To Go content has been prepared for adult learners)
- •Pregnancy or anticipated conception within 3 mos (Diabetes To Go content does not address gestational diabetes or diabetes in pregnancy where management and glycemic targets differ considerably from those for non-pregnant adults );
- •Admission to an intensive-care unit, diabetic ketoacidosis, hyperglycemic hyperosmolar state - conditions in which the acuity level would likely preclude participation in DSME;
- •Patient declines participation in the education program for any reason; and any medical condition or cognitive dysfunction that, in the opinion of unit staff, would preclude participation in the education program.

结局指标
主要结局
Integration of Diabetes Self Management Education and Support (DSMES) into nurses workflow
时间窗: July 2016-May 2017 (11 months)
To identify and validate barriers and facilitators of reach, effectiveness, adoption, implementation and maintenance of a diabetes survival skills education program which is delivered at the bedside using a web-based e-learning platform by nursing unit staff to adult patients with type 2 diabetes prior to discharge from the hospital. Nursing unit staff (RN, patient care technician, clerical, leadership) provided input via focus groups and key informant interviews to inform intervention design.
Patient acceptance of diabetes self-management education delivered via an e-learning platform.
时间窗: November 2017 to March 2018 months
Rates of patient engagement with the DSMES program via the e-learning platform.
次要结局
- To conduct iterative rapid-cycle usability testing of the enhanced Diabetes To Go program content and processes and establish a Diabetes To Go program toolkit for widespread implementation(May 2017 to Oct 2017 months)
