This study is a multi-center, randomized prospective trial with a 6-month follow up. A newly developed treatment and education module will be tested compared to a waiting-list control group. The module covers the topic "diabetes and partnership". Primary outcome variable is diabetes-specific empowerment regarding diabetes and partnership. Secondary outcome variables are: diabetes-related distress, health-related quality of life, depressive symptoms, self-care behavior, and glycemic control.
The module consists of one lesson (duration: 90 minutes). The module is derived from the empowerment approach and is based on the previously evaluated education and treatment program for type 1 diabetes: PRIMAS (NCT01220557). The module is designed as a group session held by a trained diabetes educator. Patients are randomized either to the immediate participation in the module or to the control group. Control group is a waiting-list control group. Patients in this waiting-list control group get the education after the completion of the 6-month follow-up.

| Education - Diabetes and Partnership | Behavioral | Based on the treatment and education programme PRIMAS a problem-specific education module regarding "Diabetes and Partnership" was created. The module covers specific and detailed aspects of the topic "partnership" such as dealing with hypoglycemia, late complications, and talking about diabetes in a relationship. With this module, a more comprehensive education of patients with specific interest in these topics is possible. |
