Brief Summary:
This feasibility study builds upon mental health and technology acceptance theoretical frameworks. It seeks to examine potentials of a mobile-based novel digital health solution based on emotional and behavioral change techniques, to provide emotional and self-management tailored support to caregivers of children with type I diabetes (T1D).
The digital health program, called Adhera® Caring, is designed to be used for approximately 3 months. The study will enroll 100 participants (20 in sub-study 1 and 80 in sub-study 2) who are caregivers of children with type 1 diabetes. There will be a nurse coaching the participants by providing support related to their emotional wellbeing via the mobile solution.
Detailed Description:
Objectives:
* Primary objective 1. To gather qualitative and quantitative information enabling to better understand psychological burdens that caregivers of children with type 1 diabetes and perceived barriers/facilitators for adoption of a digital health solution.
* Primary objective 2. To assess positive mood states of caregivers of type 1 diabetes patients as an indicator of emotional wellbeing related to the use of the digital health solution.
This is a prospective mixed-methods (qualitative-quantitative) exploratory study composed of two sub-studies:
* Qualitative sub-study 1 (SS1): One group of caregivers (n = 20) will engage with the digital health solution for 1 month. Subsequently, an individual semi-structured interview with each of the participants and a usability questionnaire will proceed to gather user experience qualitative information.
* Quantitative sub-study 2 (SS2): A different group of caregivers (n = 80) will engage with the digital health solution for 3 months. As elaborated in the following sections, a quantitative approach will be adopted to assess different emotional and behavioral parameters before and after engaging with the digital health solution (pre-post design).
