Official title
Telehealth and Meal Replacement Pilot Program for Improved Care of Underserved Patients With Diabetes
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This pilot study will involve intensive training in self-management of diabetes mellitus. The intensive diabetes self-management program will involve an initial diabetes assessment with the nurse/diabetes educator, an initial evaluation by the Endocrinologist, Dr. Santen, at one of the Tri-Area CHC clinics; weekly or bi-weekly phone calls to review glucose and insulin data and 3-month, 4.5 month and 6-month follow-ups on telemedicine with Dr. Santen. A cloud based glucose monitoring system will utilize the Verizon based Telcare glucose meter with glucose test strips and the Glucommander-outpatientR algorithm to make insulin dosage recommendations. The goal will be to test blood glucose 4-7 times/day. The serial glucose levels are accessible on the meter itself but also can be accessed online by the entire diabetes team. Weekly to four weekly phone calls with the UVA endocrinologist ( and nurse/diabetes educator from Tri-Area as necessary) will be completed to discuss glucose patterns and make insulin adjustments. In addition, the patient will attend four diabetes tele-education programs to learn more about improved self-management of their diabetes. To facilitate nutritional education, a modified , patient specific, Nutrisystem R diet will be supplied , designed to be the exclusive source of nutrition. This diet will involve 1200 calories for women and 1800 calories for men. Both frozen and non-frozen food will be delivered to the patient. Nutrisystems will supply these " meal replacements" at a reduced cost based on this pilot program.
