Nurse-Led video program shows promise for diabetes control in thailand
NCT ID NCT07366775
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a 12-week program where nurses provided diabetes education and support through video calls to 128 adults with type 2 diabetes in Thailand. Participants had uncontrolled diabetes and owned a smartphone. The program included an initial in-person session followed by regular video follow-ups. The main goal was to see if this approach was feasible, and researchers also looked at changes in blood sugar, blood pressure, and quality of life.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- telenursing-based diabetes self-management education and support program
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could provide an accessible, low-cost way to help people with type 2 diabetes improve their blood sugar control and quality of life through remote nurse support.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, completed feasibility study in Thailand, so results may not apply to other settings. The program requires a smartphone and internet, which may limit who can benefit.
