Low-cost, translatable interventions to promote adherence in adolescents with type 1 diabetes are needed. This study evaluated a brief physician-delivered intervention designed to increase parent-adolescent communication about blood glucose (BG) monitoring. Thirty adolescent/parent dyads completed baseline questionnaires and received the physician-delivered intervention. Participants completed follow-up questionnaires at 12 weeks; HbA1c and glucometer data were abstracted from medical charts. Parent-reported conflict surrounding diabetes management decreased from pre- to post-intervention. Participants who reported adhering to the intervention plan (n=15) demonstrated an increase in BG monitoring frequency and trends in improved HbA1c and parental diabetes collaboration from pre- to post-intervention. Participants and physicians reported overall satisfaction with the program. Results demonstrate initial feasibility as well as a trend towards improvement in diabetes-specific health indicators for parent/adolescent dyads who adhered to program components. Frequent joint review of glucometer data can be a useful strategy to improve T1D-related health outcomes and parent-adolescent communication.
