Brief summary
The aim of this study is to determine if completion of the Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) via the Transform 10 website can significantly decrease hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels and Body Mass Index (BMI) in prediabetic individuals undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA) procedure. As part of the standard procedure of the Centers for Disease Control (CDC)-approved DPP program, all study participants will report their active minutes and weight via the Transform10 website throughout the 6 month-long program. In addition, participants will have a repeat Hba1c test ordered at the end of the program by the medical director as part of routine procedures. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Is an augmented digital diabetes prevention program an effective strategy for weight loss in adults with prediabetes undergoing elective total hip arthroplasty? 2. Is an augmented digital diabetes prevention program an effective strategy to decrease HbA1c in adults with prediabetes undergoing elective total hip arthroplasty? 3. Is an augmented digital diabetes prevention program an effective strategy to improve postoperative outcomes and patient satisfaction in adults with prediabetes undergoing elective total hip arthroplasty? Participants will be randomized to get the DPP on their day of surgery (intervention group) or get their DPP 6 months after their day of surgery (control group). Comparing the intervention group to the control group, the researcher's primary outcome is change in percent of body weight before and after a 6-month intervention period.
Detailed description
Glycemic, or blood sugar, control is an important factor associated with improved outcomes for patients after surgery. With one in three adults in the United States living with prediabetes, poor glycemic control has become an increasingly relevant indicator of postoperative complications. Glycemic control is commonly measured and referred to through the medical term hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c). Each percentage increase in HbA1c has been shown to be associated with increased complications around the time of surgery, intensive care unit admission, and hospital length of stay. The aim of this study is to determine if completion of the Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) via the Transform 10 website can significantly decrease HbA1c levels and Body Mass Index (BMI) in prediabetic individuals undergoing THA surgery. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Is an augmented digital diabetes prevention program an effective strategy for weight loss in adults with prediabetes undergoing elective total hip arthroplasty? 2. Is an augmented digital diabetes prevention program an effective strategy to decrease HbA1c in adults with prediabetes undergoing elective total hip arthroplasty? 3. Is an augmented digital diabetes prevention program an effective strategy to improve postoperative outcomes and patient satisfaction in adults with prediabetes undergoing elective total hip arthroplasty? Participants will be randomized to get the DPP on their day of surgery (intervention group) or get their DPP 6 months after their day of surgery (control group). Comparing the intervention group to the control group, the researcher's primary outcome is change in percent of body weight before and after a 6-month intervention period. As part of the standard procedure of the Centers for Disease Control (CDC)-approved DPP program, all study participants will report their active minutes and weight via the Transform10 website throughout the 6 month-long program. In addition, participants will have a repeat Hba1c test ordered at the end of the program by the medical director as part of routine procedures. The self-paced curriculum and optional video content covers: * Strategies to overcome emotional eating using cognitive behavioral therapy principles. * Improving cardiovascular function with capacity-matched training programs using participants' estimated cardio scores. * An introductory-level course for increasing muscle and bone density foundation via strength training. * Education regarding physical therapy and expectations for patients. Participants will also have access to lifestyle coaches who discuss evidence-based information regarding hunger and insulin, macronutrient strategies, time-restricted intermittent fasting, and inflammation.
Interventions
OTHERTransform10 Diabetes Prevention Program
The Transform10 app includes a Centers for Disease Control (CDC)-approved diabetes prevention program. The self-paced curriculum and optional video content covers: * Strategies to overcome emotional eating using cognitive behavioral therapy principles. * Improving cardiovascular function with capacity-matched training programs using participants' estimated cardio scores. * An introductory-level course for increasing muscle and bone density foundation via strength training. * Education regarding physical therapy and expectations for patients. The Transform10 app also provides access to lifestyle coaches who discuss evidence-based information regarding hunger and insulin, macronutrient strategies, time-restricted intermittent fasting, and inflammation.

Masking description
Patient will be blinded because they will be told that they are getting the DPP within 0-6 months. RA's will not know what group patients are in because Transform10 will be asking all of the questionnaires via their platform.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change in percent of body weight before and after a 6 month intervention period. | Pre-surgical screening to 12 months post-operation | body mass index will be measured at pre-surgical screening and again after a 6 month and 12-month period. The percent change in body weight will be recorded at program completion and at 6 months prior to program completion. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Patient satisfaction. | 12 months post-operation | Patient satisfaction will be a questionnaire that is asked by the Transform10 website 1 year after surgery. This questionnaire assesses how satisfied patients have been with their post operative pain management. This is reported on a scale from 0-10 with 0 being strongly dissatisfied and 10 being strongly satisfied. |
| Patient readiness assessment | day of surgery to 6 months prior to surgery | Patients will be asked 8 questions upon access to the Transform10 program to assess their level of readiness for change. Each question asks if the patient is capable of a task and the responses range from Sure I can, Think I can, Not sure I can, Don't think I can. |
| Health related quality of life (HRQOL) | 12 months post-operation | The health-related quality of life questionnaire will be asked via the transform10 website. This assesses how a patient's pain has impacted their day to day lives 12 months after their day of surgery. This is reported on a variety of scales depending on the questions asked. The scales include; 1 Excellent, 2 Very Good, 3 Good, 4 Fair, 5 Poor; 1 Much better now than one year ago, 2 Somewhat better now than one year ago, 3 About the same, 4 Somewhat worse now than one year ago, 5 Much worse now than one year ago; 1 Yes, limited a lot, 2 Yes, limited a little, 3 No, not limited at all; 1 Yes, 2 No; 1 Not at all, 2 Slightly, 3 Moderately, 4 Quite a bit, 5 Extremely; 1 None, 2 Very mild, 3 Mild, 4 Moderate, 5 Severe, 6 Very severe; 1 All of the time, 2 Most of the time, 3 A good bit of the time, 4 Some of the time, 5 A little of the time, 6 None of the time; 1 Definitely true, 2 Mostly true, 3 Don't know, 4 Mostly false, 5 Definitely false. |
| Change in percent Hgb A1C after a 6 month intervention period. | Pre-surgical screening to 12 months post-operation | hemoglobin a1c levels will be measured at pre-surgical screening and again after a 6 month and 12-month period. The percent change in hba1c level will be recorded. |
| Possible ICU Admission | PACU arrival time to 12 months post-operation | This will be recorded from Epic from post-operative care unit (PACU) admission to 12 months post-surgery. |
| Possible patient readmission | PACU arrival time to 12 months post-operation | This will be recorded from Epic from post-operative care unit (PACU) admission to 12 months post-surgery. |
| Postoperative length of stay | PACU arrival time to 12 months post-operation | This will be recorded from Epic from post-operative care unit (PACU) admission to 12 months post-surgery. |
| Possible postoperative complications | PACU arrival time to 12 months post-operation | This will be recorded from Epic from post-operative care unit (PACU) admission to 12 months post-surgery. |
