Self-efficacy assessed by The Self-Efficacy for Diabetes Self-Management Measure (SEDM), a 10-item self-report scale that covers the major aspects of diabetes self-management including monitoring blood glucose levels, dosing insulin, food choices, and exercise, and performance of diabetes-related tasks when feeling overwhelmed or frustrated. Total score range for the SEDM is 1-10, with a higher score indicating higher self-efficacy.

Parent-child collaboration in diabetes care assessed using the Collaborative Parent Involvement Scale, a 12-item questionnaire with a five-point Likert scale, from almost never to always, and is targeted for adolescents. The scale aims to assess parental use of problem solving, teachable moments, diabetes, help with autonomy, and supervision of diabetes care when the adolescent is not around. Higher scores indicate better parent-adolescent collaboration Minimum score is zero and maximum is 60

OTHER_PRE_SPECIFIED outcome
Timeframe: baseline, clinical remote monitoring of CGM (3 months)Percent change is calculated as the relative difference between time in hyperglycemia at clinical remote monitoring of CGM at 3 months and baseline. Time in hyperglycemia is defined as the percentage of glucose readings above the prespecified threshold (e.g., \>180 mg/dL) during continuous glucose monitoring. A negative value indicates a reduction in time spent in hyperglycemia.

OTHER_PRE_SPECIFIED outcome
Timeframe: Baseline, clinical remote monitoring of CGM (at 3 months)This measure describes the relative change in the percentage of time participants wore the continuous glucose monitor (CGM)between baseline and clinical remote monitoring of CGM at 3 months. Wear time was calculated based on the amount of time the device recorded valid glucose readings compared with the total possible monitoring time. Change in CGM wear time was calculated as \[the difference in wear-time percentage between clinical remote monitoring period- percent valid wear time at baseline\] / percent of valid wear time at baseline x 100. A positive value indicates increased wear time at Timepoint 2 compared with Timepoint 1; a negative value indicates decreased wear time.
