Study Summary

This trial is designed to improve care and outcomes for youth with type 1 diabetes as they transition to adult care.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for young people aged approximately 16-19 with type 1 diabetes who are transitioning from pediatric to adult care in Ontario. They must have been followed at participating centers and be capable of reading English and consenting for themselves. Those with non-type 1 diabetes, moving out of Ontario within a year, or unable to consent are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests whether a data platform combined with quality performance feedback reports can improve the transition from pediatric to adult diabetes care. It aims to enhance glycemic control during this changeover period and evaluate the intervention's effectiveness.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves data management and feedback systems rather than medical treatments, traditional physical side effects are not applicable. However, participants may experience stress or anxiety related to adapting new routines or due to performance feedback.

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Post-InterventionExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Those whose last pediatric visit was in the second year after the intervention (2020). The intervention includes the following : Data Platform: Medical record data abstracted from patient charts at the time of the final pediatric visit. . Quality performance feedback reports: We will generate centre-level performance reports. Centres will be able to compare their performance to that of all other centres and to achievable benchmarks. Patient transition experience surveys at the final pediatric visit and 12 months later. Diabetes teams may direct patients and families to online transition resources.
Group II: Early InterventionExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Those whose last pediatric visit was in the year immediately after the start of the intervention (2019). The intervention will begin on Jan 1, 2019 and includes the following : Data Platform: Medical record data abstracted from patient charts at the time of the final pediatric visit. . Quality performance feedback reports: We will generate centre-level performance reports. Centres will be able to compare their performance to that of all other centres and to achievable benchmarks. Patient transition experience surveys at the final pediatric visit and 12 months later. Diabetes teams may direct patients and families to online transition resources.
Group III: Pre-interventionActive Control1 Intervention
Those whose last pediatric visit was in the year before the intervention (2018). Medical record data abstracted from patient charts at the time of the final pediatric visit.
