Condition or disease | Intervention/treatment | Phase |
---|---|---|
Parents | Behavioral: REDCHiP | Not Applicable |
This was a two group randomized controlled study using a wait-list control design. All participating parents had the opportunity to receive 10 video-based telemedicine sessions administered over 13 weeks. Study assessments took place at baseline, post-treatment, and 3 month followup. Study outcomes included parent reported hypoglycemia fear, parenting stress, diabetes distress, and child glycated hemoglobin.

Primary Outcome Measures :
- Hypoglycemia Fear Survey [ Time Frame: absolute value at post-treatment (week 14) ]Hypoglycemia Fear Survey-Parents of Young Children. This is a measure of parents' perceived hypoglycemia fear. Higher scores suggest greater fear (worse outcome). Total possible range: 26-130.
Secondary Outcome Measures :
- Child Hemoglobin A1c [ Time Frame: absolute value at post-treatment (week 14) ]Child hemoglobin A1c- biological marker of glycemic control
