The primary aim was to identify the feasibility and acceptability of a multidisciplinary pilot intervention for caregiver DD in a diverse academic pediatric diabetes centre. Another primary aim was to determine the percentage of local caregivers with DD. A secondary aim was to determine if the intervention affected caregiver DD. We also explored potential associations between caregiver DD and demographic and diabetes-related characteristics.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>Individual interviews with five caregivers with DD (who did not participate in the intervention) were held pre-intervention, in order to gather qualitative, open-ended feedback on prepared educational materials. As a pilot feasibility study, we held 3 monthly, one-hour educational and support group virtual sessions per cohort (6-8 caregivers) on Nutrition, Fear of Hypoglycemia and Parent/Child Collaboration. Sessions were attended by an endocrinologist with leaders from other disciplines including dietician, diabetes educator and/or social worker. Target enrollment was 30 caregivers with DD (PAID-PR/Problem Areas in Diabetes-Parent Revised score of ≥56/100) of children 5-17 years old with T1D for ≥6 months.
