Improving diabetes management for Black and Hispanic adults
A Multiphase Optimization Strategy to Enhance Diabetes Management Interventions for Black and Hispanic Patients with Uncontrolled Diabetes
This study is looking for better ways to help Black and Hispanic adults with diabetes who have trouble managing their condition, by finding out what strategies can make it easier for them to stick to their medications and improve their health.

What this research studies
This research focuses on enhancing diabetes management interventions specifically for Black and Hispanic adults who struggle with uncontrolled diabetes. It aims to address the significant barriers these populations face, such as poor medication adherence and social determinants of health like food insecurity and negative beliefs about diabetes. The study will utilize a randomized factorial mixed methods trial, collaborating with community partners and a pharmacy chain to identify effective and cost-efficient strategies to improve medication adherence and glycemic control. By optimizing these interventions, the research seeks to improve health outcomes and reduce disparities in diabetes care.
Who could benefit from this research
Good fit: Ideal candidates for this research are Black and Hispanic adults aged 21 and older who have uncontrolled diabetes and face challenges with medication adherence.
Not a fit: Patients who are not Black or Hispanic or those who do not have diabetes may not receive any benefit from this research.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this research could lead to improved diabetes management and health outcomes for Black and Hispanic patients, ultimately reducing complications associated with uncontrolled diabetes.
How similar studies have performed: Previous research has shown success in optimizing diabetes management interventions for diverse populations, indicating that this approach has potential for meaningful impact.
