Summary

To compare a comprehensive diabetes team care condition (IC) involving the diabetes team's use of a "diabetes dashboard" with a usual diabetes team care condition (UDC) that does not have access to the diabetes dashboard.

Detailed description

To compare a usual diabetes care condition (UDC) to a comprehensive diabetes care intervention condition (IC) involving a "diabetes dashboard" clinical decision support tool used by the diabetes team in primary care. The investigators used a parallel-groups randomized design. The diabetes team (i.e., diabetes nurses, diabetes dietitians, and providers) delivered a 5-visit, 6-month intervention to n=199 poorly-controlled (HbA1c \>7.5%) Latino T2D patients (mean age=55 years, 60% female) seen at 2 urban community health centers. This intervention was compared to an established, in-house diabetes team care program (n=200) for its impact on blood glucose control and key psychosocial outcomes (diabetes distress, depression, social distress).
