Gamified Optimized Diabetes Management With Artificial Intelligence-Powered Rural Telehealth Intervention (GODART): Protocol for an Optimization Pilot and Feasibility Trial.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is highly prevalent in the United States and represents a significant public health challenge. Telehealth interventions have shown promise for improving T2DM outcomes, but their effectiveness is often limited by disparities in digital literacy and access, especially in rural areas. To address this gap, we propose an innovative, individualized lifestyle modification intervention delivered via phone call to support glycemic control.

Objective

This paper outlines the protocol for a pilot study designed to assess the feasibility and preliminary effectiveness of an artificial intelligence-assisted intervention for T2DM self-management in rural settings.

Methods

The study uses the preparation phase of the MOST (Multiphase Optimizat
