The research question
Which self-management demands are associated with distress, missed routines or reduced quality of life?
Proposed design
Brief repeated assessments with treatment-context questions; continuous glucose monitoring is a separately scoped linkage module.
Illustrative design: 2- to 4-week intensive diary; setup and recruitment are scoped separately.
Data to collect
- Diabetes-related distress
- Reported glucose-management and medication tasks
- Meal, activity and sleep context
- Device burden and treatment concerns
Planned outputs
- Daily self-management burden profiles
- Distress and reported-routine associations
- Glucose-linked analysis only where verified data are available
What we confirm with you
We agree the population, sample size, country, collection tools, analysis plan and budget. Collection starts after the required consent, ethics or other permissions and a signed scope are in place.
- Analyze type 1 and type 2 diabetes separately unless justified
- Confirm CGM permissions, units and data completeness if added
- Separate perceived glucose events from measured events
Clinical records, laboratory results, photographs and device integrations are included only when access, collection quality and permitted use have been verified. Self-reported findings are identified as such.
Research context
These published sources explain the research need or method. They are not RIDLY customers, endorsements or purchase commitments.
- Daily diabetes distress and glucose study
The prospective study paired repeated patient reports with continuous glucose monitoring to examine distress and glucose patterns.
- Novo Nordisk position on real-world evidence
Novo Nordisk identifies cardiometabolic evidence needs beyond BMI and describes patient-reported and digital data collection.
