About this study

Official title: Application of Information-Motivation-Behavioral Model-based Continuity of Care on the Peri-implantitis Recovery in Diabetic Implant Overdenture Patients: A Randomised Controlled Trial

The investigators recruited 32 diabetic IOD patients with a total of 110 problematic implants who had completed the treatment for peri-implantitis between January 2021 and March 2023 as research subjects. The patients were randomly assigned to the control group or the experimental group using the random number table. The control group received routine postoperative medical advice, whereas the experimental group was given an IMB model-based continuity of care.

Read the detailed description

Continuity of care involves a series of actions designed to ensure that patients undergoing a transfer from different health care settings (e.g., from hospital to home) or within the same setting (e.g., different units in the hospital) receive different levels of collaborative and continuous care, including discharge planning, referrals, and continuous follow-up and guidance after the patient returns home . It encompasses the roles of both provider and receiver. Patients who actively participate will receive more substantial treatment. Additionally, a retrospective cohort study has shown that continuity of care is associated with lower risk of cardiovascular disease risk among individuals with type 2 diabetes. Another prospective cohort has shown that the application of continuity of care in the dental field enhances oral anticancer therapy adherence.

The information-motivation-behavioral skills (IMB) model, first proposed by Fisher, is composed of three elements-information, motivation, and behavioral skills-and is aimed at transferring patients' behavior into a positive direction, including self-behavior management ability, medication compliance and so on. For diabetic patients with poor adherence, the IMB model of care can be considered.

This model may be particularly useful in diabetic IOD patients since they are more prone to peri-implantitis than patients with other types of implant restorations or non-diabetic patients. However, the efficacy of the combination of the IMB model and continuity of care in improving healing, bone resorption, disease management and control, and quality of life in the specific population group of diabetic IOD patients remains unclear. To this end, the current study was aimed at investigating whether this model of care can help achieve better clinical outcomes and improve patient satisfaction with the services provided, thereby obtaining data to serve as a reference and scientific basis for the improvement of intervention plans.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
IMB model-based continuity of careExperimentalIntervention through the IMB model-based continuity of care was focused on three aspects: 1. Information intervention: (a) instructing patients to follow the official account of the dental implant department and introducing the instructions to use the application, (b) regularly updating the educational content and disseminating detailed knowledge about the prevention and treatment of oral diseases, especially for peri-implantitis. 2. Motivation intervention: (a) providing an online platform for patients to interact with nurses and doctors, where they can obtain professional answers. (b) assessing the risk factors related to peri-implantitis and diabetes and developing appropriate interventions 3. Behavioral skills intervention: (a) providing feedback on the correct use of tools and implants and cleaning of the overdentures by observing the cleaning videos that the patients were required to upload.
Receives: Behavioral: IMB model-based continuity of care
routine health educationNo interventionFor the control group, standard care was provided in the form of routine health education regarding various topics, such as proper brushing techniques, use of an oral irrigator, and other auxiliary tools. The patients were followed-up via telephonic interviews to monitor their condition, including usage of the implant and lifestyle changes; the interviews were conducted at 2 weeks, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after treatment. Data were collected about oral health, blood glucose control, lifestyle habits, and comorbidities by using the compliance questionnaire. Appropriated health education was provided if there were any concerns such as gingival swelling, plaque accumulation, and elevated blood glucose levels.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Peri-implant bone resorption

    Each patient received at least 3 panoramic radiographs on the first day patients came to our hospital for treatment of peri-implantitis (T0), 6 months after treatment (T1), and 12 months after treatment (T2), respectively. The distances from the most coronal implant-bone junction site to the implant platform in both the mesial and distal sites of the implants were measured and recorded as measured mesial bone level (mMBL) and measured distal bone level (mDBL) respectively. The lengths of the implants were measured in order to calibrate the measurements by using the actual known length of the implant, for example, the actual MBL(aMBL) = mMBL × (actual implant length) / (measured implant length). We obtained the average value of aMBL and aDBL, regarded T0 as the baseline, and subtracted T0 from T1 or T2 to acquire the bone loss in 6 or 12 months after treatment.

    Measured: 1-2years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Patient satisfaction

    An in-house questionnaire was developed to assess the patients' satisfaction regarding nurses service attitude, timeliness of responses, effectiveness in controlling peri-implant inflammation, and feelings about their own condition. The scores ranged from 1 to 10, with higher scores indicating greater satisfaction.

    Measured: 1-2years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing IMB model-based continuity of care in people with Bone Resorption and Diabetes, run by The Dental Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Oct 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Peri-implant bone resorption (time frame: 1-2years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 27 Oct 2023.
