Although the cause of Type 1 is different to Type 2, they can both lead to high blood glucose levels as the patient is unable to store and use sugar. The disease is an epidemic of the 21st century which is increasing, having a current prevalence of approximately 8%.\n\nPoor disease control is associated with a range of long-term health conditions which have a severe impact upon quality of life and are responsible for the increased morbidity and mortality associated with the disease.\n\nHealthcare professionals use HbA1c as the main marker to monitor diabetic control. Patients with diabetes have regular review appointments to monitor their overall health and discuss their HbA1c target and results. The purpose of monitoring patients with diabetes is to improve patient outcomes. It is known that poor control is associated with poor clinical outcomes and also that reduced monitoring is linked to suboptimal diabetic control. Therefore, aiming for the correct monitoring frequency helps towards achieving the best control which can lead to the most favourable clinical outcomes. The inconvenience of attending for a blood test and follow-up appointment is a major factor affecting patient adherence to monitoring, locally approximately 50% of patients with diabetes have their HbA1c level measured either too soon or too late.\n\nTo address this issue and improve access to monitoring at the correct time interval we aim to produce a HbA1c home testing kit which can be posted back to the laboratory at the convenience of the patient. The kit will be developed based on feedback from patients with diabetes and will use a dried blood spot sample to produce HbA1c results comparable to the whole blood standard method.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '90 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'NON_PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'Diabetic patients (type I and II) aged over 18 years old.\n\nHealthcare professionals aged 18 or over who work with patients with diabetes.', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Diagnosis of Type I or Type II diabetes\n* Aged 18 years or over\n* Venous blood sample for HbA1c collected within the two weeks prior to the clinic appointment\n* Ability to provide fully informed consent\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Non-English speaking where translation of the study documents and procedures could limit fully informed consent\n* Severe visual impairment which would leave the participant unable to complete the study procedures.'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT06038669', 'briefTitle': 'User Evaluation of a Home-collection Kit for People With Diabetes', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'University Hospitals of North Midlands NHS Trust'}, 'officialTitle': 'User Evaluation of a Home-collection Kit for People With Diabetes', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '3242'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'label': 'People with diabetes', 'description': 'Patients who have diabetes will be asked to use a home collection kit to collect a dried blood spot sample which will be compared to the HbA1C result.', 'interventionNames': ['Device: Dried blood spot device']}, {'label': 'Health care professionals', 'description': 'Health care professionals who work with diabetic patients will be interviewed and asked about diabetes monitoring in the healthcare setting, comments on current laboratory service, patient engagement, comments on service improvement', 'interventionNames': ['Other: Healthcare professional interviews']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Dried blood spot device', 'type': 'DEVICE', 'description': 'Patients will be asked to provide a dried blood spot sample', 'armGroupLabels': ['People with diabetes']}, {'name': 'Healthcare professional interviews', 'type': 'OTHER', 'description': 'Health care professionals only will be interviewed using the topic guide and asked about their experience of diabetes monitoring', 'armGroupLabels': ['Health care professionals']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'city': 'Stoke-on-Trent', 'status': 'RECRUITING', 'country': 'United Kingdom', 'contacts': [{'name': 'Aviva Ogbolosingha', 'role': 'CONTACT', 'email': 'aviva.ogbolosingha@uhnm.nhs.uk', 'phone': '01782 675380'}, {'name': 'Kate Ford', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR'}], 'facility': 'University Hospitals of North Midlands NHS Trust', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 53.00415, 'lon': -2.18538}}], 'centralContacts': [{'name': 'Aviva Ogbolosingha', 'role': 'CONTACT', 'email': 'aviva.ogbolosingha@uhnm.nhs.uk', 'phone': '01782 675380'}]}, 'ipdSharingStatementModule': {'ipdSharing': 'NO'}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'University Hospitals of North Midlands NHS Trust', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'SPONSOR'}}}}
