About this study

In plain language

This study compares digital health coaching with remote health monitoring through a primary care team. It is for people with a physical disability, type 2 diabetes, and at least one other long-term health condition. The study looks at which approach better lowers blood sugar and improves health and stress related to diabetes.

The purpose of the study is to compare 2 primary care based telehealth interventions- 1) digital health coaching and 2) remote patient monitoring for improving glycemic (blood sugar levels) control and overall health outcomes in individuals with physical disabilities, type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and at least one chronic condition. The project aims to determine which intervention is more effective in reducing blood sugar levels, improving patient-reported outcomes such as diabetes-related distress, and facilitating the implementation of these approaches in real-world primary care settings serving vulnerable populations. The findings intend to inform about optimal telehealth strategies for managing multiple chronic conditions in underserved groups, there by supporting improved health equity and quality of care.

Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.
