Randomized Controlled Trial
Evaluation of a behavior support intervention for patients with poorly controlled diabetes.
Disease management programs that include ongoing telephone support for patients with diabetes have shown promise, but published studies have enrolled few socially and economically disadvantaged patients. ⋯ There was no significant effect of the experimental intervention compared with the control condition. The dose of intervention provided was less than in previously published studies. More intensive interventions may be necessary for the most disadvantaged patients.
