T1-REDEEM: A Randomized Controlled Trial to Reduce Diabetes Distress Among Adults With Type 1 Diabetes

Abstract

DD can be successfully reduced among distressed individuals with T1D with elevated HbA_1c using both education/behavioral and emotion-focused approaches. Reductions in DD are only modestly associated with reductions in HbA_1c. These findings point to the importance of tailoring interventions to address affective, knowledge, and cognitive skills when intervening to reduce DD and improve glycemic control.
