Who could benefit from this research
✓Could help
Youth with type 1 diabetes and their families who interact with pediatric diabetes care teams.
✕Less likely to help
Families not engaged with providers or in settings where dissemination strategies are not adopted may see no direct benefit.
What this research studies
This project focuses on spreading proven psychosocial care for youth with type 1 diabetes to healthcare providers who treat them. It uses a provider-centered dissemination plan, guided by evidence-based dissemination methods, to tailor strategies to pediatric diabetes teams. By increasing provider awareness and use of psychosocial care, it aims to improve diabetes distress, glycemic control, and family dynamics for patients and families.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, more families will receive evidence-based psychosocial support that can improve blood sugar control and reduce distress.
How similar studies have gone: This is a novel provider-focused dissemination effort building on prior dissemination work in the D4D framework; outcomes in related contexts have shown improved provider uptake of evidence-based practices.
