This proof-of-concept randomized controlled trial investigates the Digital Diabetes Patient Reminder (DIPAR) tool's effectiveness in improving diabetes follow-up adherence among adults with type 2 diabetes in Belgium. The primary outcome measures the proportion of patients receiving at least one documented annual albuminuria measurement in electronic medical records. The study aims to recruit approximately 200 participants.

Key findings

  • The primary objective is to increase the proportion of adults with T2DM receiving at least one documented annual albuminuria measurement.
  • The secondary objective assesses the increase in patients with at least 2 documented HbA1c measurements within 12 months.
  • Usability and acceptability of the DIPAR tool will be evaluated through various qualitative methods.

Why it matters

Improving adherence to diabetes monitoring is crucial for preventing complications associated with type 2 diabetes. Digital tools like DIPAR may enhance patient engagement and communication with healthcare providers, potentially leading to better health outcomes.
