Objective: We aimed to better understand the challenges related to type 2 diabetes medication-taking through Theoretical Domains Framework (TDF)-guided interviews with people with type 2 diabetes with varying degrees of medication-taking.
Methods: One-on-one qualitative interviews following a semistructured discussion guide informed by the TDF were conducted. Thirty people with type 2 diabetes in Canada were interviewed, with representation from across the country, of both sexes (47% female), of people with various diabetes durations (mean 12.
Aims: The objectives of this scoping review were to: (1) identify the target audience and contexts in which strategies to improve type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) medication adherence have been used, (2) provide an overview of behaviour change techniques (BCTs) used, (3) describe the determinants of behaviour targeted by strategies and (4) to identify current gaps in strategies.
Methods: A systemic search for articles related to T2DM, medication adherence and strategies was conducted in EMBASE, Ovid MEDLINE and Epub Ahead of Print, In-Process & Other Non-Indexed Citations and Daily using the OvidSP platform on 11 March 2021. All publications involving strategies to overcome medication non-adherence among adults with T2DM were included.
Objectives: Although multiple causes of therapeutic inertia in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have been identified, few studies have addressed the behavioural aspects of treatment-intensification decisions among persons with type 2 diabetes (PwT2DM) and general practitioners/family practitioners (GPFPs).
Methods: A quantitative online survey was developed to capture from 300 PwT2DM and 100 GPFPs the following information: 1) perspectives on shared decision-making (SDM) related to treatment intensification, using the 9-item Shared Decision Making Questionnaire and the Shared Decision Making Questionnaire---physician version; 2) intentions to intensify treatments, using the Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB); and 3) preferred strategies to overcome causes of therapeutic inertia in T2DM. Regression methods were applied post hoc to examine correlations with SDM scores, behavioural intentions and behaviours.
Objectives: Therapeutic inertia in type 2 diabetes (T2DM) is the failure to receive timely treatment intensification as indicated according to T2DM treatment guidelines. Multifactorial causes of therapeutic inertia in T2DM have been documented at the level of persons with diabetes (PwD), health-care providers and health-care systems.
Methods: We developed a 3-part mixed-methods research program, called the Moving to Overcome Therapeutic Inertia Obstacles Now in T2DM (MOTION) study, to inform the development of strategies to address therapeutic inertia in T2DM.
