Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to test whether providing personalized diabetes self-management recommendations and feedback improves blood sugar control more than providing generalized diabetes educational material alone
Detailed Description:
Diabetes mellitus DM is a common chronic disease that is rapidly rising in prevalence affecting upwards of 35000 adults in the Hamilton Ontario region population 400000 The magnitude and growth of the problem and its serious health consequences suggest that
1 diabetes is now a major public health problem and
2 interventions at the community level are needed to mitigate its health impact
During the last 5 years Diabetes Hamilton was successfully piloted as a free community-based program available to anyone with diabetes It promotes diabetes self-management self-efficacy and awareness through the provision of generalized diabetes information eg newsletters workshops forums resource directories to consumers local physicians and other health professionals
This trial will determine if supplementing Diabetes Hamilton with an automated tailored feedback system that
1 provides information
2 generates and communicates specific evidence-based recommendations to users from a self-administered questionnaire
3 copies this communication to the patients designated physician
4 facilitates access to community resources and
5 provides a simple way for the patient to track changes in indicators of health can improve A1c and other diabetes care indicators more than Diabetes Hamilton alone
