MANAGe-DM: Novel Nurse Case Management to Improve Diabetes Outcomes in Black Men Recently Released From Incarceration

Phase 2
Recruiting
Conditions
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2
Registration Number
NCT06031428
Lead Sponsor
Medical College of Wisconsin
Brief Summary

The study is a randomized control trial involving 100 participants (Black men with poorly controlled diabetes within 1 year of release from incarceration) to examine the effect of a tailored nurse case manager on glycemic control and other clinical outcomes, self-care behaviors, and quality of life at 6 months post-randomization.

Detailed Description

The study is a randomized control trial involving 100 participants (Black men within 1 year of release from incarceration) to examine the effect of a tailored nurse case manager on glycemic control and other clinical outcomes, self-care behaviors, and quality of life at 6 months post-randomization. Participants assigned to MANAGe-DM will receive the standard diabetes education mailing in addition to a novel nurse case management intervention. Nurse case managers are trained RNs who support patients with T2DM by coordinating services, supporting self-care and implementing disease management strategies (Welch 2010). MANAGe-DM will include NCM services tailored to the health needs of Black men with recent release from incarceration and T2DM. MANAGe-DM will include three components: 1) diabetes education and skills training; 2) healthcare navigation and 3) basic needs navigation. The NCM will serve as an adjunct to the participant's primary care provider; they will not be embedded within a clinic but instead interact with the participant over the phone after study recruitment from a community setting.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Hemoglobin A1C6 months post-randomization

Venous draw will be use to obtain HbA1C

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Quality of Life (Short Form Health Survey, SF-12)6 months post-randomization

The Short Form Health Survey (SF-12) version 1, developed by Ware et al. in 1996 is a valid and reliable instrument that will be used to measure quality of life. Scores will be reported in physical health related (PCS) and mental health related (MCS). Scores range from 0 to 100 with higher scores indicating better quality of life.

Blood Pressure6 months post-randomization

Blood pressure readings (both systolic and diastolic) will be obtained using automated BP monitors programmed to take 3 readings at 2 minute intervals and give average of the 3 readings
