Dresden University of Technology
Information provided by: Forschungsinstitut der Diabetes Akademie Mergentheim
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00707447
  Purpose

A type II diabetes prevention programme, named PRAEDIAS was developed. It consists of 12 lessons delivered as group sessions. Die efficacy of PRAEDIAS was studied in a randomized controlled study with 12 month follow up. Control group received written information about diabetes risk. Primary outcome variable was weight reduction at 12 months follow up. Secondary variables were impact of the intervention on glycemic parameters, lipids, eating and exercise behavior and other metabolic risk factors

Arms Assigned Interventions
1: Placebo Comparator
Control group received written instruction about healthy eating and increasing physical exercise
Behavioral: Written Information about diabetes risks
Brochure about the value of a healthy lifestyle, calorie table, suggestions for healthy food and daily exercise
2: Experimental
Intervention consists of a group programme (PRAEDIAS) aiming at modification of lifestyle
Behavioral: PRAEDIAS (group programme aiming at modification of lifestyle)
Lifestyle changes, 12 lesson a 90 minutes, delivered in a group setting, consists of analysis of barriers against lifestyle changes, behavior analysis of eating and exercise behavior, modification of unhealthy lifestyle and relapse prevention

Detailed Description:

The PRAEDIAS programme was developed based on the interventions used in the Diabetes prevention study (DPS, Finland) and the Diabetes Prevention programme (DPP; USA). The main purpose of PRAEDIAS was to develop a prevention programme delivered as a group programme to improve cost-benefit ration of diabetes prevention programmes.
