This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing whether a structured sleep improvement program can help adults with type 1 diabetes manage their condition better. Researchers believe that poor sleep may make it harder to control blood sugar levels and may contribute to heart and blood vessel problems. The study will compare people who receive coaching to improve their sleep against a group receiving standard diabetes support.
Many adults with type 1 diabetes struggle to reach their blood sugar and blood pressure targets, which increases their risk of serious complications like heart disease and kidney damage. This research explores whether improving sleep — a factor that hasn't been deeply studied in type 1 diabetes — could be a simple way to help people manage their condition better and stay healthier.

You will be assigned to one of two groups. One group will work with a health coach who will help you improve your sleep by aiming for 7–9 hours per night, maintaining consistent bedtimes and wake times, and improving sleep quality. The other group will work with a health coach focused on standard diabetes care. You'll likely have regular check-ins with your coach and may be asked to track your sleep and blood sugar levels throughout the study.
