CDMiQ

Type 2 Diabetes (T2D)

WHAT IS CDMiQ ?

Put simply, CDMiQ is a digitally integrated health assessment tool, which has been developed to provide individuals living with chronic disease (such as Type 2 Diabetes (T2D)) with the capability to easily compare and share individual health data together with their entire treatment team. Providing individuals and their Health Care Team with unique insights into how they are managing their condition; how they are tracking against Optimum Treatment Guidelines; and what their individual risk factors are across multiple diabetes related diseases.

WHY STUDY TYPE 2 DIABETES (T2D)?

Pre-diabetes is recognised as the first phase of Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) development and if not identified early and managed appropriately through lifestyle changes, can quickly progress to T2D. Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic disease which develops over time and is caused by many factors, including genetics and lifestyle behaviours, is closely linked to a number of concurrent chronic diseases (co-morbidities). Research suggests that T2D can be prevented or delayed in up to 58% of cases, by the adoption of healthy lifestyle choices and by reducing/limiting unhealthy behaviours. T2D is also referred to as Non-Insulin Dependent Diabetes and if not managed well, can rapidly progresses in severity, significantly increasing the risk of developing / further progressing diabetes related health complications. Which is why it is extremely important for individuals with T2D to understand how their lifestyle choices and health behaviours positively and negatively impact their condition and what steps need to be taken, in order to gain control over their modifiable risk factors. Implementing and following an evidence based T2D management plan takes a collaborative a supportive from the entire treatment team to reduce and slow down progression of the disease.

WHY SHOULD I PARTICPATE IN THE T2D PILOT TRIAL?

Our experienced team of researchers are undertaking a Pilot Trial to assess CDMiQ’s utility in providing individuals living with T2D (and their treatment team) with unique insights into the various challenges and barriers experienced around chronic disease management, treatment plan & Optimum Treatment Guideline adherence, risk factor identification and mitigation, and clinical health outcomes allowing for improved decision making, through the CDMiQ (Chronic Disease Management Intelligence Quotient) assessment and live, web enabled dashboard.

We hope that through this Pilot Trial we will be able to;

Test how effective CDMiQ is at capturing, scoring, scaling, displaying individual health outcome measures and treatment team data.
Test how user friendly CDMiQ is for individuals with chronic disease. Specifically, how easy it is to use, navigate and interact with the CDMiQ platform.
Test how user friendly CDMiQ is for health care professionals. Specifically, how easy it is to compare individual health outcome measure within the live, web enabled dashboard. Optimum Treatment Guidelines and concurrent chronic disease risk factors.
Test how effective CDMiQ is at identifying measurable improvements across a number of health outcome indicators, for individuals with living with T2D.
Test individuals to see if their health outcomes improve as a result of using CDMiQ’s web enabled platform and live dashboard reporting environment together with their chosen treatment team.
