Development of a Diabetes Navigator Toolkit to Support Diabetes Technology Uptake: The IMPACT Toolkit.

ABSTRACT: Advanced diabetes technologies (ADTs), including continuous glucose monitoring devices, insulin pumps, and automated insulin delivery systems, improve glycemic control in type 1 diabetes but are underutilized, particularly in minority and underserved populations. This article reports on a qualitative study to develop a diabetes toolkit. Participants identified barriers to the use of ADTs and proposed solutions to these barriers, which were then incorporated into a diabetes toolkit designed for use by a diabetes navigator or other diabetes care team members seeking to improve the uptake and sustained use of ADTs.
