Interventions

Loss frame sleep extension intervention — BEHAVIORAL
Aim 2 will be an interventional study design utilizing Fitbit and text messaging to perform a loss-framed incentive intervention designed to motivate participants to increase their sleep duration. Glycemic control will be measured via laboratory testing of hemoglobin A1c and Libre continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) for 2 weeks pre- and post-intervention. A focus group will be conducted prior to this intervention with patients ineligible for the intervention in order to determine appropriate text messaging.

Study Details

The primary objective is to determine the cross-sectional relationship between sleep duration (as measured by 14 days of actigraphy) and glycemic control in an adolescent Type 2 Diabetes (T2DM) cohort (age 12-20y, n=67). A secondary objective is to determine if a loss-framed incentive for achieving sleep goals can increase sleep duration in 15 adolescent patients diagnosed with T2DM with insufficient sleep. Another secondary objective is to test if increasing sleep duration leads to improved glycemic control in 15 adolescents with T2DM identified in Aim 1 as having \<8 hr sleep/evening. A focus group will be conducted prior to this intervention with patients ineligible for the intervention in order to determine appropriate text messaging.
