Evaluating diabetes prevention programs in a university and health network
DP22-001 Evaluating Real-world Diabetes Prevention Programs in a Multi-campus University System and a Three-state Regional Health Network
This study is looking at how well Diabetes Prevention Programs work for people at risk of type 2 diabetes and what helps or hinders them from joining these programs, so we can find better ways to support patients in staying healthy.

What this research studies
This research investigates the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of Diabetes Prevention Programs (DPP) in real-world settings by analyzing data from electronic health records and insurance claims. It aims to understand the long-term outcomes for individuals at risk of developing type 2 diabetes who participated in DPP compared to those who did not. The study will also explore barriers and facilitators to participation in these programs, providing insights into how to improve access and outcomes for patients. By merging data from a multi-campus university system and a regional health network, the research will create a diverse cohort to assess various DPP delivery models.
Who could benefit from this research
Good fit: Ideal candidates for this research are adults at risk of developing type 2 diabetes who have either participated in or are considering participation in a Diabetes Prevention Program.
Not a fit: Patients who are not at risk of developing type 2 diabetes or those who have already been diagnosed with diabetes may not benefit from this research.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this research could lead to improved diabetes prevention strategies that are more effective and accessible for at-risk populations.
How similar studies have performed: Previous research has shown promising results in evaluating diabetes prevention programs, indicating that this approach is built on established methodologies.
