Overall , family support had a positive impact on healthy diet , increased perceived support , higher self-efficacy , improved psychological well-being and better glycemic control .
This systematic review found evidence that DSME with family support improved self-management behaviors and health outcomes among uncontrolled glycaemia T2D patients .
The rate of type-2 diabetes mellitus ( T2D ) is dramatically increasing worldwide .
Continuing diabetes mellitus ( DM ) care needs effective self-management education and support for both patients and family members .
This study aim ed to review and describe the impacts of diabetes mellitus self-management education ( DSME ) that involve family members on patient outcomes related to patient health behaviors and perceived self-efficacy on self-management such as medication adherence , blood glucose monitoring , diet and exercise changes , health outcomes including psychological well-being and self-efficacy , and physiological markers including body mass index , level of blood pressure , cholesterol level and glycemic control .
Outcomes from a Diabetes Self-management Intervention for Native Hawaiians and Pacific People: Partners in Care
Background Culturally adapted interventions are needed to reduce diabetes-related morbidity and mortality among Native Hawaiian and Pacific People . Purpose The purpose of this study is to pilot test the effectiveness of a culturally adapted diabetes self-management intervention . Methods Participants were r and omly assigned in an unbalanced design to the Partners in Care intervention ( n = 48 ) or wait list control group ( n = 34 ) . Assessment s of hemoglobin A1c , underst and ing of diabetes self-management , performance of self-care activities , and diabetes-related distress were measured at baseline and 3 months ( post intervention ) . Analysis of covariance was used to test between-group differences . The community steering committee and focus group data informed the cultural adaptation of the intervention . Results There were significant baseline adjusted differences at 3 months between the Partners in Care and wait list control group in intent-to-treat ( p < 0.001 ) and complete case analyses ( p < 0.0001 ) for A1c , underst and ing ( p < 0.0001 ) , and performing diabetes self-management ( p < 0.0001 ) . Conclusions A culturally adapted diabetes self-management intervention of short duration was an effective approach to improving glycemic control among Native Hawaiian and Pacific Isl and ers
