No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The study aim is to determine if parent mentors can improve adherence to the intensive multiple daily injection regimen (MDI) or the insulin pump therapy, through monitoring the frequency of blood glucose measurements. Researchers are also trying to determine if the parent mentors can improve glycemic control, which is measured through HbA1c. The study hypothesis is that trained parent mentors can help families with children who have poorly controlled T1DM improve adherence to their diabetes regimen and improve their metabolic control.
