Background: Less than 20% of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients in different healthcare settings achieve all treatment goals to prevent cardiometabolic disease. A more personalised approach with shared decision making should increase that percentage. Because the ADDITION-Europe study demonstrated two (almost) equally effective treatments but with slightly different intensities, it may be a good starting point to discuss with the patients their diabetes treatment, taking into account both the intensity of treatment, clinical factors and patients' preferences. The aim of the study was to evaluate whether such an approach increases the proportion of treatment goals that T2DM patients achieve.
Methods: In a cluster-randomised trial in 40 primary care practices that participated until 2009 in the ADDITION Study, 150 T2DM patients 60 - 80 years, known with T2DM for 8-15 years, will be included. Practices are randomised a second time, i.e. intervention practices in the ADDITION study could be control practices in the current study and vice versa. For the GPs from the intervention group a 2-hour training in shared decision making (SDM) was developed as well as a decision support tool to use during the consultation. These GPs plan the first visit with the patients to decide on the intensity of the treatment, personalised targets and the priorities of treatment. The control group will continue with the treatment they were allocated to in the ADDITION study (treatment-as-before). Follow-up: 24 months. The primary outcome is the proportion of patients who achieve all three treatment goals (HbA1c, blood pressure, total cholesterol) at 24 months. Secondary outcomes are the proportion of patients who achieve five treatment goals (HbA1c, blood pressure, total cholesterol , body weight, not smoking), evaluation of the SDM process (SDM-Q9), satisfaction with the treatment (DTSQ), wellbeing and quality of life (W-BQ12, ADD QoL-19), health status (SF-36, EQ-5D) and coping (DCMQ). The proportions of achieved treatment goals will be compared between groups by estimating the relative risk of meeting the treatment targets. For the secondary outcomes mixed models will be used.
Discussion: To achieve optimal diabetes care with a higher proportion of achieved individualised treatment goals, the SDM approach including a multi-faceted decision support tool might be useful. An intervention with such a support decision tool is designed.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| shared decision making | Experimental | In the intervention practices the SDM process is used. In the SDM proces the patient and GP use a decision aid to discuss the pros and cons of two evidence based treatment possibilities, according to the Dutch College of General Practitioners (NHG) versus the ADDITION guideline, and the patients' preferences for either of these treatments. Together they choose one of these treatments, and set the five treatment targets (blood pressure, cholesterol, HbA1c, smoking status and weight) in order of priority. Subsequent treatment will take place according to the priorities of these OPTIMAL treatment targets. The priorities will be evaluated every 12 months. |
|
| control group | No Intervention | Patients in the control practices will receive treatment-as-before, which means that the patients will not be offered the structured SDM process. So the GP will treat the former ADDITION patients as they were used during the period that followed after the ADDITION study (2009), either according to the national guidelines or to the ADDITION intensive treatment algorithm. |

| Process evaluation of the shared decision making ability of the general practitioners by using the Shared Decision Making Questionnaire. | The Shared Decision Making Questionnaire (SDM-Q9) includes 9 items with ratings from 0 (completely disagree) to 6 (completely agree); the total score ranges from 0 to 45. The shared decision making ability of the general practitioners in both the intervention and the control practices (the first group trained, the latter not trained) will be evaluated during the final measurement occasion (24 months) by using the SDM-Q9, filled out by both the patients and the general practitioners. In addition, one or two audio tabs per GP including a selection of the SDM visit will be analysed, as well as some of the final visits in the control practices. These audio tabs will be evaluated by two independent observers by using the SDM-Q9. |

| Characteristics of success for the SDM process in the patients in the intervention group. | Generalized linear models will be used to correct for clustering at practice level. To identify patients who show better results after the SDM process, the analysis for the primary outcome will be repeated with taking into account interaction of SDM with age, gender, education level, duration of diabetes. | after 24 months |
| The difference in health related Quality of Life between both groups at 24 months as measured with the Audit of Diabetes Dependent Quality of Life and the European Quality of Life questionnaire. | The ADDQoL-19 measures the perceived impact of diabetes on the quality of life and includes 19 items. Items range from -3 to 3 on different questions, with 0 as the neutral score. Scores below 0 reflect a negative influence of the item on quality of life, and all above 0 reflect positive influences. The EQ-5D covers 5 dimensions (mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression) and a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) where respondents can rate their health. Item scores range from 1-3, and a 5-digit health profile is formed, placing the 5 numbers behind each other. Difference in health-related quality of life between baseline and 24 months follow-up within each group will be analysed by using paired t-tests. Mixed models will be used to study the between groups differences after two years. We will add random effects for patient and practice. | after 24 months |
| The difference in health status between both groups at 24 months as measured with the Short Form-36. | The Short Form-36 (SF-36) is 36-item instrument for the self-evaluation of health status; it includes eight subscales: Physical Functioning, Role Physical, Bodily Pain, General Health, Vitality, Social Functioning, Role-Emotional and Mental Health. These scales can be summarised in Physical Health and Mental Health. The 36 items differ in the scoring ranges. Difference in health status between baseline and 24 months follow-up within each group will be analysed by using paired t-tests. Mixed models will be used to study the between groups differences after two years. We will add random effects for patient and practice. | after 24 months |
| The difference in well-being between baseline and 24 months within and between both groups as measured with the Well-Being Questionnaire. | The Well-Being Questionnaire (W-BQ12) consists of 12-items in three 4-item subscales: negative well-being (item 1-4, higher score reflects a greater sense of negative well-being), energy (items 6 and 7 are reversed, and then together with 5 and 8 form the total amount of energy) and positive well-being (items 9-12, the higher the score the greater the sense of positive well-being). The total score ranges from 0 to 36 and is called the general well-being score. Higher scores indicate a higher overall sense of well-being. Difference in wellbeing between baseline and 24 months follow-up within each group will be analysed by using paired t-tests. Mixed models will be used to study the between groups differences after two years. We will add random effects for patient and practice. | after 24 months |

| The difference in coping style between baseline and 24 months within and between both groups as measured with the Diabetes Coping Measurement Questionnaire. | The Diabetes Coping Measurement Questionnaire (DCMQ) consists of 21 items. Overall scores range from 7 to 35. The items are measures on a 5-point Likert scale, ranging from 1 ("disagree") to 5 ("agree strongly") or from 1 ('I strongly agree') to 5 (I 'disagree'). It includes 4 subscales: spirit coping, avoidance coping, passive resignation coping and diabetes integration coping. Higher scores on tackling spirit and diabetes integration indicate more adaptive coping. Higher scores on passive resignation and avoidance indicate poor coping. Difference in coping style between baseline and 24 months follow-up within each group will be analysed by using paired t-tests. Mixed models will be used to study the between groups differences after two years. We will add random effects for patient and practice. | after 24 months |
