Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to see if a financial incentives program called InvesT1D is helpful to support diabetes management in adolescents with type 1 diabetes. Adolescent participants will be randomized to usual care or receive financial incentives for meeting diabetes self-management and clinical outcomes goals during the study. Researchers will compare changes in glucose levels, as well as adolescent and caregiver person-reported outcomes between groups.

Detailed description

Adolescents face many challenges as they transition from childhood to adulthood. For adolescents with type 1 diabetes, there are additional responsibilities that come with daily diabetes self-management. The goal of this study is to find out whether financial incentives can help adolescents with their daily self-management. Adolescent participants will be assigned to one of 6 groups. Some participants will be asked to choose diabetes self-management goals such as increasing daily bolus insulin administration or increasing their continuous glucose monitoring system wear time, and then will be provided with financial incentives (money) when they meet their selected goals. Other participants will be asked to continue their diabetes management as usual. Researchers will collect data from 96 adolescent participants and their caregivers to assess change in glucose levels, as well as adolescent and caregiver person-reported outcomes.
