Brief Summary

Determine the impact of the Compañeros en Salud (Partners in Health) curriculum in conjunction with RT-CGM on glycemic control in Latinx patients with T2D. Participants will be randomized to receive the Companeros en Salud diabetes self-management education and support (DSMES) intervention with or without RT-CGM

Detailed Description

The prevalence of type 2 diabetes is increasing especially in the Latinx community and in family members of those already living with diabetes. Diabetes education is a cornerstone of treatment but is often not culturally tailored and there is limited data on benefit of virtual delivery of sessions. Real Time Continuous glucose monitoring is a tool to improve diabetes but is not readily available to those living with type 2 diabetes not on multiple doses of insulin. Furthermore here is little to no data on RT-CGM use in different minority populations. Data is also lacking on if diabetes education for an individual affects the family unit. We hypothesize that culturally tailored Diabetes self-management education using and support (DSMES) using a team approach of health educators and Community health workers will improve glycemic indices. We further hypothesis that RT-CGM coupled to DSMES will enhances glycemic benefit and change nutrition and activity behaviors. This will be a randomized control trial of 100 Latinx participants who will all receive culturally tailored DSMES with or without cycle RT-CGM over 12 weeks. Primary outcome will be mean A1C improvement at 12 and 24 weeks based on attendance of sessions and RT-CGM use. Secondary outcomes will be satisfaction with education and CGM, changes in weight, blood pressure and self-reported nutrition and exercise changes. This study will be the first study to examine how DSMES with and without RT-CGM use improves health outcomes in the Latinx population and their families

. Responses are rated on a 5 point scale ranging from ''can't do at all'' to ''certain can do'' (1, 5). In this scale, higher scores indicate higher self-efficacy in perform- ing DSM activities.

The Neighborhood Questionnaire/Neighborhood Safetybaseline

a 16-item tool to assess sociability and an individual's satisfaction with the family's neighborhood. It has three subscales, and we will ask the Neighborhood Safety Subscale (items 1, 6, 10, 11, and 12) as a brief assessment of participants' ability to safely engage in physical activity in their neighborhoods

Self-Efficacy for Diabeteschange at 12 and 24 weeks

the scale is 1-10 and the score is the mean of the eight items. If more than two items are missing, do not score the scale. Higher number indicates higher self-efficacy

PHQ9 Depression scorebaseline

Scores less than 5 almost always signified the absence of a depressive disorder; scores of 5 to 9 predominantly represented patients with either no depression or subthreshold (i.e., other) depression; scores of 10 to 14 represented a spectrum of patients; and scores of 15 or greater usually indicated major depression.
