This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate an 8-week intervention designed to reduce sedentary behavior (SB) in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) using wearable technology. The intervention involves the use of Fitbit devices to prompt standing/walking breaks, a smart water bottle to encourage hydration-related movement, and tailored text messages for behavior reinforcement. Participants will be assessed at baseline and post-intervention for changes in SB, light physical activity, cardiometabolic markers, and patient-centered outcomes. The study seeks to determine the intervention's acceptability and preliminary efficacy in reducing SB and improving health outcomes in T2D patients.
The investigators propose to develop and conduct a pilot randomized controlled trial to test a wearable technology-based sedentary behavior (SB) reduction intervention in type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients. The study will recruit 80 participants who will be randomized to either the control group or the intervention group. The 8-week intervention aims to reduce daily SB by at least 120 minutes through the use of Fitbit devices, a smart water bottle, and tailored text messages. Participants will set personalized SB reduction goals and receive prompts to stand or walk, along with hydration reminders from the smart water bottle to encourage movement.
Specifically, the study aims to: determine the acceptability of the SB reduction intervention in T2D patients by evaluating satisfaction and compliance; evaluate the preliminary efficacy of the intervention on reducing total SB time and numbers of prolonged SB bouts; and explore preliminary effects on light physical activity, cardiometabolic markers (24-hour glycemic control, BMI, waist circumference, blood pressure), and patient-centered outcomes (confidence in reducing SB, habit strength for SB, and quality of life). Outcomes will be measured at baseline and post-intervention using biometric assessments, questionnaires, and continuous glucose monitoring. The study seeks to provide insights into the feasibility and potential health benefits of a technology-driven SB reduction program for T2D patients.

This study employs a parallel assignment interventional model, wherein participants are randomly allocated to one of two groups: the intervention group or the control group. The intervention group will receive a comprehensive sedentary behavior (SB) reduction program over 8 weeks, utilizing wearable technology, including Fitbit devices and smart water bottles, combined with personalized text message prompts. The control group will receive standard care, consisting of educational materials provided by the American Heart Association, without additional prompts or interventions. The primary goal is to compare the outcomes between these two groups to assess the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of the SB reduction intervention in reducing SB and improving cardiometabolic health and patient-centered outcomes in individuals with type 2 diabetes.

| Response Rates to Tailored Text Messages | Compliance will be evaluated by tracking the response rates (percentage) to the tailored text messages sent as part of the intervention. | 8 weeks post-intervention |
| Change in Light Physical Activity | This measure will evaluate changes in light physical activity, including total standing and stepping times. Participants will wear the activPAL device for 7 days at both baseline and post-intervention to capture these activity levels. | Baseline and 8 weeks post-intervention |
| Change in 24-Hour Glycemic Control (GMI) | 24-hour glucose levels will be measured by continuous glucose monitoring over a 7-day period. The 24-hour glucose control will be evaluated using the Glucose Management Indicator (GMI), which provides an estimated average glucose (eAG) based on the mean 24-hour glucose levels. The GMI will be calculated from the mean glucose values and reported as a single aggregated value. Additionally, the numbers of events and time in hypoglycemia (glucose < 3.9 mmol/L), euglycemia (glucose 3.9-7.8 mmol/L), hyperglycemia (glucose > 7.8 mmol/L), and above target (glucose > 9 mmol/L) will be monitored to provide context to the GMI value, but these will not be separately reported as primary outcome measures. Unit of Measure: GMI (Glucose Management Indicator, as a percentage) | Baseline and 8 weeks post-intervention |
| Change in Body Mass Index (BMI) | This measure will evaluate changes in BMI, calculated using participants' height and weight measurements taken at baseline and post-intervention. | Baseline and 8 weeks post-intervention |
| Change in Waist Circumference | This measure will assess changes in waist circumference, measured at the narrowest point between the rib cage and the iliac crest using a flexible tape measure. | Baseline and 8 weeks post-intervention |
| Change in Blood Pressure | This measure will evaluate changes in systolic and diastolic blood pressure, measured using an automated and validated blood pressure monitor at baseline and post-intervention. | Baseline and 8 weeks post-intervention |
| Change in Confidence in Reducing Sedentary Behavior | This measure will assess changes in participants' confidence in their ability to reduce sedentary behavior, evaluated using a validated self-efficacy questionnaire for physical activity and sedentary behavior. Confidence in reducing SB and increasing physical activity will be measured using 12 items from the Self-Efficacy Questionnaire for Physical Activity and Sedentary Behavior (Cronbach's alpha = 0.79). Each item is rated on a 5-point Likert scale ranging from 1 (not at all confident) to 5 (extremely confident). The total score ranges from 12 to 60, with higher scores indicating greater confidence in reducing sedentary behavior and increasing physical activity. | Baseline and 8 weeks post-intervention |
