Summary

This pilot study tests a digital tool that doctors use during visits to help patients with prediabetes become more active in managing their health. The tool asks patients a few questions and then gives the doctor tips on how to talk about lifestyle changes and resources like health coaching. The study involves 100 adults with prediabetes at one clinic in Maryland.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance: Diabetes Prevention Patient Activation Clinical Decision Support Tool
What this could lead to: If successful, this tool could help more people with prediabetes take steps to prevent diabetes through better doctor-patient conversations.
What could go wrong: This is a small pilot study with only 100 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The tool is designed to support conversations, not directly prevent diabetes.
