Diabetes and Travel: Evaluation of a Diabetes Education Module - a Randomized Controlled Trial (PRIMO_Travel)

The module consists of one lesson (duration: 90 minutes). The module is derived from the empowerment approach and is based on the previously evaluated education and treatment program for type 1 diabetes: PRIMAS (NCT01220557). The module is designed as a group session held by a trained diabetes educator. Patients are randomized either to the immediate participation in the module or to the control group. Control group is a waiting-list control group. Patients in this waiting-list control group get the education after the completion of the 6-month follow-up.
