Study Details
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of a 12-week intervention utilizing a Fitbit and artificial intelligence (AI)-delivered diabetes self-management education and support (DSMES) with tailored text messages. The main question it aims to answer is: Does providing a wearable fitness and activity tracker plus AI-tailored and DSMES improve clinical outcomes for patients with type 2 diabetes? Participants will complete a baseline visit, wear a Fitbit and answer text messages for 12-weeks, and complete by a final visit.
