Preventing lower limb artery disease in adults with diabetes using a risk-prediction model and HAPA-based nursing

Official title: Construction and Empirical Research of a Risk Prediction Model for Preventing Lower Extremity Arteriosclerosis Obliterans in Diabetic Patients Based on the HAPA Model

Run by Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University · NCT07881588 · Data updated 2026-11-12

A risk-prediction model is tested in adults with type 2 diabetes to see if a nursing plan based on the HAPA model can reduce peripheral artery disease in the legs.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults with type 2 diabetes, at risk for ASO, and capable of using smart devices and providing informed consent.

Probably not a fit

Patients with severe cognitive impairment, active mental illness, or existing lower-extremity arterial disease may not benefit.

What this trial studies

This interventional study develops a logistic regression–based risk model to predict lower extremity arteriosclerosis obliterans (ASO) in diabetic patients. Guided by the Health Action Process Approach (HAPA), investigators create and test a nursing intervention aimed at preventing ASO. The trial compares routine care to the targeted intervention to see if the risk model and nursing plan can lower ASO incidence and improve quality of life in clinical practice. Participants are adults with type 2 diabetes, able to use smart devices, and able to consent. The study is conducted at a single center, with the aim of informing practical prevention strategies in diabetic care.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, patients may experience a lower risk of ASO and improved quality of life through tailored prevention.

How similar studies have gone: Previous work with risk-prediction models and HAPA-based interventions in chronic disease prevention has shown promise, though this exact combination in diabetic ASO prevention is novel.
