(from HRSA)

New publications from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) for clinicians and patients summarize the effectiveness of behavioral programs to supplement clinical care for people with type 1 and type 2 diabetes. The publications reflect findings of an AHRQ-funded systematic review that examined behavioral programs for diabetes self-management including patient education, dietary interventions and structured exercise or physical activity interventions.

Clinician-focused publications:

• Behavioral Programs for Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus: Current State of the Evidence
• Behavioral Programs for Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: Current State of the Evidence

Patient-focused publications (written in plain language):

• Behavioral Programs To Help Manage Type 1 Diabetes: A Review of the Research for Children, Teens, and Adults
• Behavioral Programs To Help Manage Type 2 Diabetes: A Review of the Research for Adults
