Brief Summary:
A randomized controlled trial evaluating whether a patient-centered virtual educational tool based on small videos focusing on optimization of mental health, diet, physical activity, self-adjustment of insulin dose and use of diabetes technology in addition to usual individual face-to-face education, will improve glycemic control and pregnancy outcome in women with pre-existing diabetes mellitus compared to women receiving usual individual face-to-face education alone.
Detailed Description:
ETOS-DM is a national RCT evaluating the effect of combined virtual patient-centered education based on a tool of small videos accessible via smartphones in addition to usual individual face-to-face education during pregnancy or to routine individual face-to-face education only.
The small educational videos covering topics as food choices, physical activity, self-adjustment of insulin dose insulin pump settings during pregnancy, use of CGM during pregnancy, mental health among others,each of 1-4 minutes duration, will be developed in collaboration with user representatives (women with pre-existing diabetes who are or have recently been pregnant) and relevant health care professionals.
The inclusion period of the ETOS-DM study starts on September 1st 2023 and ends on August 31st 2025.
Pregnant women with pre-existing diabetes will be randomized before 14 gestational weeks. The women in the intervention group will have free, unlimited access to approximately 10 educational videos. The use of these virtual educational videos will be monitored and the women's own experience with the videos will be explored. The women will be followed during pregnancy, delivery until one month after delivery. Both groups of women follow usual local care and local face-to-face education which is allowed to change during the study period.
Stratification will be performed for diabetes center, for diabetes type and, in women with type 1 diabetes, use of MDI or insulin pump.
