Summary

This trial examines how a nurse case manager can help 100 Black men with diabetes manage their condition and improve their health and quality of life.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for Black men over 18 years old with poorly controlled type 2 diabetes (HbA1c ≥8%), who have been released from incarceration within the last year. They must be able to communicate in English and not be on house arrest or under electronic monitoring, involved in other diabetes trials, facing imminent legal proceedings, or have significant dementia or acute mental disorders.
What is being tested?
The MANAGe-DM study tests a tailored nurse case management approach versus monthly educational mailings to improve blood sugar control and quality of life in participants. It's a randomized trial with two groups: one receiving the novel intervention and the other standard information.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves case management and education rather than medication, there are no direct medical side effects. However, participants may experience stress or anxiety related to lifestyle changes recommended by their nurse case manager.
