This systematic review found robust data demonstrating that engagement in diabetes self-management education results in a statistically significant decrease in A1C levels .
PRACTICE IMPLICATION S The data suggest mode of delivery , hours of engagement , and baseline A1C can affect the likelihood of achieving statistically significant and clinical ly meaningful improvement in A1C
OBJECTIVE Assess effect of diabetes self-management education and support methods , providers , duration , and contact time on glycemic control in adults with type 2 diabetes .
A patient-centric, provider-assisted diabetes telehealth self-management intervention for urban minorities.
This article describes the design and implementation of an online diabetes self-management intervention for a sample of inner-city African Americans with diabetes . Study participants were r and omly assigned to the treatment ( 26 ) and control ( 21 ) conditions . The results indicate that treatment group participants were more likely to achieve positive outcomes in terms of lowered hemoglobin A1c and body mass index measurements than were control group members . These findings support the development of telehealth interventions to promote effective chronic disease management in medically underserved communities
