Abstract

Introduction: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) remains a major global health challenge, with suboptimal glycaemic control contributing to preventable complications and reduced quality of life. Self-care is central to T2DM management; however, evidence regarding the types and effectiveness of self-care interventions remains fragmented. Aim This scoping review aimed to map and classify self-care interventions for improving glycaemic control in adults with T2DM and to summarise their effects on haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c). Methods A scoping review was conducted in accordance with PRISMA-ScR guidelines and Arksey and O’Malley’s framework. Searches of PubMed, ProQuest, and Scopus were undertaken for studies published between 2019 and 2024, with the search completed in January 2025. Studies were selected using the Population–Concept–Context framework and included empirical research reporting at least one glycaemic outcome. Data were charted and synthesised descriptively. Results Thirty-three studies were included. Self-care interventions were categorised into four groups: digital health interventions, education and counselling, social and peer support, and multidisciplinary care models. Digital interventions, including mobile applications and telemedicine, were most frequently reported and commonly associated with greater reductions in HbA1c compared with usual care. Educational and culturally tailored programmes improved self-efficacy and adherence, while multidisciplinary approaches demonstrated consistent glycaemic improvements. Conclusion Self-care interventions show generally positive effects on glycaemic control in adults with T2DM, although substantial heterogeneity across studies limits comparability. Future research should prioritise standardised outcomes and assess long-term sustainability.

Exploring Self-Care Interventions to Improve Glycemic Control in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: A Scoping Review [version 1; peer review: 1 not approved] . F1000Research 2026, 15 :371 ( https://doi.org/10.12688/f1000research.177355.1 ) First published: 06 Mar 2026, 15 :371 ( https://doi.org/10.12688/f1000research.177355.1 ) Latest published: 06 Mar 2026, 15 :371 ( https://doi.org/10.12688/f1000research.177355.1 ) Introduction Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a significant global health issue with an increasing prevalence, including in Indonesia. This is strongly linked to higher rates of complications and mortality, underscoring its importance as a critical public health concern worldwide. 1 , 2 One of the key challenges in DM management is achieving and maintaining optimal glycemic control. According to a previous study, many patients face difficulties applying DM management guidelines in daily life10. Many patients struggle to implement the management guidelines in their daily lives. Poor adherence to medical recommendations originates from the gap between clinical standards and patients' daily needs. 3 According to recent statistics, approximately 50.7% of DM patients have uncontrolled HbA1c levels11, while only about 35.82% achieve glycemic levels in the target range. 5 , 6 The factors associated with good self-care practices are age, complications, co-morbidities, and DM education. 7 Factors such as non-adherence to prescribed treatment regimens, including regular blood glucose monitoring, medication adherence, dietary management, and physical activity, contribute to poor glycemic control. 4 , 5 This increases the risk of chronic complications such as cardiovascular disease, nephropathy, and retinopathy, adversely affecting the quality of life for DM patients. 8 – 10 These ongoing challenges highlight the urgent need for effective interventions to improve glycemic control. Self-care is an important approach in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) management, with patients actively engaged in lifestyle adjustments, glucose monitoring, and medication adherence. 11 , 12 Various self-care interventions have been developed and implemented to improve glycemic control, ranging from DM education, 13 – 16 digital technology, 17 , 18 social support, 19 to community- and culture-based interventions. 20 , 21 However, the effective implementation of self-care interventions is hindered by several challenges, including inadequate patient education, socio-cultural differences, and fragmentation in healthcare systems. Previous studies have shown that more personalized and technology-based approaches, such as telemedicine, smartphone applications, and community-based education programs, can enhance patient self-efficacy and adherence to DM management. 17 , 18 , 22 Therefore, various innovative self-care interventions have been developed and extensively evaluated to address these challenges in optimizing the management of T2DM. Self-care strategies explored include Digital technology, with studies showing that telemedicine and mobile apps help reduce HbA1c and improve adherence. 17 , 18 , 23 Additionally, digital DM management technology can enhance self-monitoring of blood glucose and support more effective communication between patients and healthcare providers, resulting in better glycemic control. 24 Education and Culturally Adapted Approaches: Educational programs tailored to patients' cultural backgrounds and habits, such as those implemented in Lebanese and Kenyan populations, have been shown to improve disease understanding and enhance patient self-efficacy. 13 , 14 Social support and community-based interventions have been shown to enhance self-care practices, such as adherence to dietary recommendations and regular blood glucose monitoring, and are associated with improved glycemic control. 19 Multidisciplinary Care Model, such as the involvement of multidisciplinary healthcare professionals, including pharmacists, diabetes nurses, and nutritionists, in providing continuous counseling and patient monitoring, has been proven effective in accelerating the achievement of HbA1c targets. 25 Although various self-care interventions have shown promising results in blood sugar control among T2DM patients, their effectiveness varies depending on population characteristics, available resources, and socioeconomic factors. Therefore, this study aims to summarize and explore the various self-care interventions used in T2DM management to provide more comprehensive information on the development of more effective and evidence-based intervention strategies. Methods Design This scoping review was conducted to summarize evidence-based alternatives to identify self-care interventions used to control blood glucose levels in patients with T2DM. The review adopted five key stages: (1) identifying the research question, (2) searching for relevant studies, (3) selecting relevant studies, (4) mapping the research data, and (5) compiling, summarizing, and reporting the findings. The study protocol is based on the 2020 Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) guidelines. 26 Phase I: Defining the research question This review addresses the following question: What self-care interventions are used to control blood glucose levels in patients with T2DM? Phase II: Identifying relevant studies and search strategy The article search was restricted to Full-text articles, Articles published in English, and Articles from the last 5 years (2019–2024). The formulation of searching using the Population Concept and Context (PCC) framework ( Table 1 ). All selected literature was retrieved from the following databases: PubMed using the following keywords: ((Self-Care [Title/Abstract]) AND (Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus [Title/Abstract])) AND ((((HbA1) OR (A1C)) OR (random blood glucose)) OR (fasting blood glucose)). ProQuest using the search string: title (Self-Care) AND title (diabetes mellitus type 2) AND title (HbA1) OR title(A1C) OR title (random blood glucose) OR title (fasting blood glucose).

Better self-care adherence was associated with improved glycemic control Phase III: Study selection All relevant articles were reviewed and analyzed. The inclusion criteria included all studies published in the last 5 years (between 2019 and 2024), written in English, and available in full text. The literature search was conducted in January 2025. The study selection process involved reviewing the title, abstract, and full text. All selected articles were organized using the Rayyan AI application on https://new.rayyan.ai for further screening. The screening stage in Rayyan AI was conducted by three reviewers. If an article received conflicting decisions from two reviewers or was marked as a conflict, the reviewers with differing opinions engaged in an open discussion to justify their inclusion or exclusion decisions. This discussion was guided by the pre-established inclusion and exclusion criteria and based on the article's title, abstract, or full text. This stage was meticulously documented using a flow diagram based on PRISMA-ScR guidelines ( Figure 1 ). This scoping review has been registered at https://osf.io/a3jq7/overview . Figure 1. PRISMA-ScR guidelines flowchart. Mapping the data Data collected from previous studies were then mapped into a synthesis table. This synthesis table provides details of the articles, including the author's name, year of publication, publication title, research objectives, methods, population and sample, results, and conclusions. The full synthesis analysis of the included studies is available as Extended Data (Extended Data Table 3 ). Results Study characteristics Thirty-three articles were included across five regions: Asia, North America, South America, Europe, and the Middle East. The majority of studies were selected from Asia (21 studies). The country contributing the most studies was China, with a total of 5, 38 , 45 , 49 , 51 , 54 followed by Saudi Arabia with 4 studies, 22 , 39 , 41 , 48 Thailand with 3 studies, 37 , 44 , 50 and Iran with 2 studies. 46 , 53 Other contributing countries included Singapore, 18 Malaysia, 31 Vietnam, 34 Turkey, 27 Lebanon, 13 and Nepal. 42 , 56 Studies from Europe were represented by Italy 29 and Lithuania, 36 while North America was represented by the United States. 30 , 35 , 52 Additionally, some studies originated from Middle Eastern countries such as Kuwait 43 and Bahrain, 33 as well as from African countries, including Ethiopia 28 and Egypt. 40 Based on the study settings, the majority of studies were conducted in hospitals, with a total number of 15. 13 , 18 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 33 , 45 , 54 , 57 Community settings were used in 10 studies. 37 , 42 , 44 , 50 , 51 , 52 , 56 Meanwhile, primary healthcare centers served as study settings in five studies. 31 , 40 , 41 , 46 , 49 Additionally, 3 studies utilized digital platforms or technology as a medium for health education interventions. 36 , 38 , 51 Research methods Among the 33 analyzed articles, various study designs were used to evaluate the impact of health education on improving self-care among patients with T2DM. These studies can be classified as Randomized Controlled Trials (RCTs) (12 studies). This design was the most commonly used experimental method. These studies include. 18 , 27 , 32 , 42 , 44 , 45 , 54 Quasi-Experimental Design (9 studies): include. 13 , 22 , 27 , 31 , 41 , 51 , 53 Cross-Sectional Studies (13 studies): These studies examined the relationship between self-care behavior and blood sugar control without providing direct intervention. 28 , 30 , 33 , 34 , 37 , 40 , 43 , 46 , 47 , 48 , 49 , 52 , 56 Experimental and Prospective Cohort Studies (4 studies): These studies aimed to examine the long-term effects of self-care interventions on HbA1c control. 35 , 36 , 38 , 39 Various methods were used in the studies, including questionnaire surveys to gather self-reported data on self-care behaviors, linear regression analysis to explore relationships between self-care activities and glycemic control, randomized controlled trials (RCTs), and quasi-experimental designs to evaluate the effectiveness of interventions, and HbA1c monitoring to assess the clinical outcomes of DM management. Study population and sample The scoping review in this study consisted of diverse populations and sample sizes (51 to 2,645 individuals). The meta-analysis conducted through the synthesis of 22 studies included the largest sample size, comprising 2,645 patients with T2DM. 18 Meanwhile, the quasi-experimental study conducted in Iran involved the smallest sample size, with only 51 patients. 53 Several other studies also involved relatively large sample sizes, including a multinational web-based survey that collected data from 1,854 respondents, and a multicenter study in Thailand that examined 700 patients with T2DM. 50 Randomized Controlled Trials (RCTs) demonstrated considerable variation in sample sizes, ranging from 150 participants 28 to 612 participants. 32 Quasi-experimental studies typically involve sample sizes between 75 and 250 participants, 41 with some studies including up to 180 participants. 51 Cross-sectional studies also showed a wide range of sample sizes, varying from 120 to 300 participants, such as a study involving 240 patients 40 and another with 300 participants. 28 Community-based and digital technology-based studies showed notable variation in sample sizes as well, such as an eHealth-based study involving 220 participants 38 and an evaluation of the Klinio mobile application with 160 patients with T2DM. 36 Several studies focused on specific populations, such as a study with 200 female patients with T2DM in Saudi Arabia 22 and another with 180 elderly participants with T2DM in Thailand. 46 Additionally, a study conducted in the United States specifically examined T2DM among men, involving 190 participants. 35 Overall, the populations in these studies mainly consisted of adult T2DM patients aged between 40 and 70 years. However, some studies focused on specific groups, including studies that examined elderly patients 41 and studies involving female patients. 31 This variation in sample sizes highlights the broad scope of the study in evaluating self-care interventions and factors influencing glycemic control among patients with T2DM across different countries and research settings. Self-care interventions The 33 studies on managing T2DM involved a variety of self-care interventions, incorporating digital technology, educational interventions, and community support. Several studies utilized app-based solutions to enhance patient adherence to self-care routines. For example, one study introduced smartphone-based self-monitoring of blood glucose, 18 while others applied the Klinio app and digital monitoring systems to aid in controlling blood sugar levels. 36 , 51 Additionally, platforms such as WhatsApp were used for educational purposes, and eHealth programs were developed to improve patients' understanding of self-care practices. 22 , 38 Beyond digital technology, several studies focused on educational interventions to improve DM management through structured learning and skill-building. A study introduced a subscription-based program for self-monitoring blood glucose, using a mobile platform to provide continuous support and feedback for patients, 31 while another study initiative applied a patient-centered self-care approach, integrating personalized education sessions through a digital platform that allowed patients to track their blood glucose levels and receive tailored advice. 32 The significance of culturally tailored, patient-centered self-care education was highlighted in multiple studies that used eHealth platforms to deliver personalized content and interactive learning. 13 , 41 An additional study explored how health literacy, through dedicated training modules, contributed to better self-care management by enhancing patients’ ability to navigate DM care. 48 , 50 Moreover, one study examined shared-care clinics where group education sessions, coupled with routine glucose monitoring, were provided to enhance collaborative care and improve patient engagement in DM management. 45 Across the 33 studies included in this scoping review, self-care interventions for the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) were categorized into four main approaches: digital self-care interventions, 28 , 31 , 37 , 42 , 57 educational and health literacy interventions, 26 , 34 , 35 , 52 , 53 community and social support, 44 and patient-centered approaches 26 , 59 ( Figure 2 ). Figure 2. Self care interventions in T2DM management. Key findings In terms of outcomes, among the 33 studies analyzed, self-care interventions were found to significantly reduce HbA1c levels in patients with T2DM compared to control groups. Several key patterns emerged from the various studies, highlighting the effectiveness of digital technology-based solutions, educational and training-based interventions, patient-centered approaches, and community-based systems in improving glycemic control. Studies implementing digital technology, such as mobile applications, WhatsApp, and eHealth, demonstrated a significant impact on reducing HbA1c levels in patients with T2DM compared to control groups, with statistically significant p-values ranging from <0.05 to <0.001. Studies utilizing digital technology consistently demonstrated reductions in HbA1c. For instance, the use of the Klinio mobile application resulted in an HbA1c level of 7.5% in the intervention group compared to 8.4% in the control group ( p < 0.05). 36 Another study reported that an eHealth-based DM management application reduced HbA1c to 7.55% compared to 7.52% in the control group, with a significant difference ( p = 0.001). 38 Using an educational WhatsApp group led to a decrease in HbA1c from 8.61% to 7.92% in the intervention group ( p < 0.001). At the same time, no significant change was observed in the control group. 22 In addition to digital technology, educational approaches and social support were also effective. A study showed a reduction in HbA1c of more than 0.5% at 3 months post-intervention, which was sustained at 6 months ( p = 0.02). 13 A telephone counseling intervention based on the IMB model lowered HbA1c from 9.28 to 8.76 in the intervention group, while the control group remained stable at around 9.16 ( p < 0.001). 27 The PACE-SMI study conducted among South Asian populations also demonstrated a reduction in HbA1c from 8.81% to 8.49% at 3 months post-intervention, compared to 8.74% in the control group, with a statistically significant difference ( p = 0.03). 32 Meaningful reductions in HbA1c were also observed in studies evaluating self-monitoring of blood glucose and patient-centered education. One study reported a combined mean difference of -0.55 between the intervention and control groups ( p < 0.001). 18 Another found that HbA1c significantly decreased in the intervention group receiving a self-monitoring package to 7.3% compared to 8.0% in the control group ( p = 0.008). 38 In Saudi Arabia, a patient education intervention reduced HbA1c from 8.38% to 7.55% after 6 months ( p < 0.001). 39 The use of glucose monitoring applications resulted in HbA1c of 6.9% in the intervention group compared to 8.1% in the control group (p < 0.05). 55 Similarly, the use of the Klinio application led to a lower HbA1c of 7.5% in the intervention group compared to 8.4% in the control group (p < 0.05). 36 Beyond digital technology, education, and social support also played a crucial role in enhancing adherence to self-care. Peer support-based interventions reduced HbA1c levels to 7.3% compared to 8.1% in the control group (p < 0.05). 35 Similarly, health literacy-based education reduced HbA1c to 7.0% compared to 8.1% (p = 0.04), indicating that improved health literacy contributes to better DM management. 37 Patient-centered and target-based approaches were also proven effective in improving glycemic control. A patient-targeted intervention successfully reduced HbA1c to 7.2% compared to 8.4% in the control group (p < 0.05). 42 Another study that emphasized patient activation in self-care showed lower HbA1c levels in the intervention group (7.2%) compared to the control group (8.6%, p < 0.001). 39 Telephone-based interventions also demonstrated a positive impact on blood sugar control. Telephone counseling based on the IMB model reduced HbA1c to 8.76% compared to 9.28% (p < 0.001), 27 while brief motivational interviewing through telephone lowered HbA1c to 7.1% compared to 8.3% (p < 0.05). 44 In general, the results of this study reaffirm that self-care approaches, including self-monitoring, education, digital technology, and social support, can enhance patient adherence in managing T2DM and significantly reduce HbA1c levels. This study proves that patient-centered interventions utilizing modern technology can be an effective long-term DM management strategy. Discussion Self-care intervention The analysis of 33 studies showed that self-care interventions in managing T2DM are implemented in various forms, such as self-monitoring blood glucose, patient-centered education, and community-based approaches. Several studies examining self-monitoring of blood glucose have shown positive outcomes in blood sugar management. For instance, a study has demonstrated that self-monitoring of blood glucose significantly reduces HbA1c levels. Furthermore, patient-centered education, as implemented, indicated that increased self-care activity could lower HbA1c, with patients who were more active in managing their condition showing better glycemic control. 29 , 31 Despite these positive results, some studies suggest limitations over the long term, with self-care interventions providing short-term benefits but not always sustaining behavior change. This highlights the need to consider sociodemographic factors, such as health literacy and social support, when designing sustainable interventions. Self-care interventions focusing on blood glucose monitoring or patient education can yield significant results in managing blood glucose levels. In general, self-care interventions focused on blood glucose monitoring or patient education can provide significant results in managing blood glucose levels. However, for long-term effectiveness, these interventions should be combined with a more holistic approach that accounts for external factors such as social and psychosocial support. 46 Digital technology In this study, digital technology, particularly mobile applications, has proven effective in enhancing patient adherence to DM management. Studies have shown that smartphone applications used for self-monitoring blood glucose increase routine monitoring and reduce fluctuations in blood sugar levels. 18 , 58 Applications such as Klinio also demonstrated significant reductions in HbA1c, with the intervention group showing better results than the control group investigated. 36 Although numerous studies highlight the success of technology in diabetes management, several challenges remain. For instance, some studies indicate that digital technology may not be effective for all populations, particularly in areas with limited access to technology or among individuals less skilled in using digital devices. 37 This can limit the positive impact of technology-based interventions for many diabetes patients. Although digital technology offers substantial benefits in facilitating self-monitoring and increasing patient engagement, accessibility, and user competence must be addressed to maximize its impact fully. Cultural tailored approach A culturally tailored approach has been shown to enhance the effectiveness of self-care interventions in DM management. A study found that culturally tailored self-care education can improve patient adherence to DM management. 13 This is particularly relevant in countries with significant cultural diversity, where cultural factors influence how patients perceive and manage their illness. However, some results suggest that cultural factors can hinder the effectiveness of self-care interventions. For instance, cultural beliefs can impede the success of DM education programs, specifically when patients feel that the program does not align with their cultural values. 30 This indicates the need for interventions that are more culturally sensitive to ensure they are better accepted by patients. In general, a culturally tailored approach has shown better results in enhancing the effectiveness of self-care interventions, but they require greater attention to cultural differences and patient beliefs to ensure success. Interventions aligned with cultural values can improve patient engagement in DM management. Social support and peer support In addition to digital technology and culturally tailored education, social and peer support have proven to play an important role in the effectiveness of self-care interventions. Several studies emphasize the significance of support from family, friends, and peer groups in improving adherence to diabetes management. For example, peer support interventions involving diabetes patients in support groups can enhance motivation to engage more actively in DM management. 35 The study also indicated that positive social relationships can reduce feelings of loneliness and improve patients’ psychosocial well-being. This support also reduces feelings of loneliness and improves psychosocial well-being. Nonetheless, the type of support received—whether from family, friends, or peers—can vary in quality and influence self-care adherence. Inconsistent or poorly understood support may diminish the benefits of such interventions. 40 Social and peer support improve adherence to DM management, but ensuring high-quality, consistent support is crucial for maximizing its impact. Research limitations Although the results are promising, several limitations are consistently observed across studies, including Heterogeneity in Study Designs and Measurement Instruments: Variations in research designs and outcome measurement instruments pose a significant challenge in broadly generalizing the results. 36 , 59 Short Intervention Duration: Some studies have short intervention and follow-up durations, making it difficult to assess the long-term sustainability of intervention effects. 33 , 42 Limited Sample Sizes: The small sample sizes in some studies reduce the statistical power and external validity of the results. 60 Conclusion In conclusion, this scoping review indicates that self-care interventions have significant potential to improve glycemic control in patients with T2DM. Education-based interventions, social support, digital technology, and multidisciplinary models have been proven effective in enhancing patient adherence to DM management and reducing HbA1c levels. However, the effectiveness of these interventions varies depending on social, economic, cultural, and healthcare infrastructure factors in different regions. Therefore, a more personalized and evidence-based approach is needed to ensure the sustainability of self-care intervention outcomes. Recommendations 1.

Continue reading READ ALL Thank you for the opportunity to review this paper. I hope the following comments can help the authors to improve the paper. There are some published scoping reviews, systematic reviews, and meta-analysis articles regarding Self-care T2DM interventions. Why do authors need to do a scoping review again? The review gap and the novelty of this review should be stated in the introduction section. The inclusion and exclusion criteria for this review are needed in the methods section. There is a need for justification of why the authors include the cross-sectional studies, while the aim was to explore self-care interventions. The included articles should align with the aim of the review Some of the included studies were not relevant to the aim of this review. Please reconsider the inclusion criteria. Figure 2 did not show the basis data; please add the included articles for each category. A systematic review should be excluded from this scoping review, unless this is a scoping review from reviews articles. There are 13 cross-sectional studies in this review. Please explain how authors infer the intervention from cross-sectional studies. Also, only 13 studies were cited for Figure 2. Please include the remaining 23 studies that have not been included in the analysis. Please don’t say that self-care interventions were found to significantly reduce HbA1c level compared to control groups because 13 studies are using a cross-sectional design, and this is a scoping review, not a meta-analysis. It is not appropriate to claim that digital technology has proven effective without a meta-analysis, and with only 5 articles that used digital technology, and only 4 cited in the results section. The scoping review needs a more thorough analysis of all included articles. Is the topic of the review discussed comprehensively in the context of the current literature? Partly Are all factual statements correct and adequately supported by citations? Partly Is the review written in accessible language? Partly Are the conclusions drawn appropriate in the context of the current research literature? Partly Competing Interests: No competing interests were disclosed. Reviewer Expertise: Community health nursing, epidemiology, public health, systematic review.
