As a group, identify a research or evidence-based article published within the last 5 years that focuses comprehensively on a specific intervention or new treatment tool for the management of diabetes in adults or children. The article must be relevant to nursing practice.
Create a 12-15 slide PowerPoint presentation (not including the title page and references) on the study’s findings and how they can be used by nurses as an intervention. Include speaker notes for each slide and additional slides for the title page and references.
Include the following:
1. Describe the intervention or treatment tool and the specific patient population used in the article.
2. Summarize the main idea of the research findings for the specific patient population. The research presented must include clinical findings that are current, thorough, and relevant to diabetes and nursing practice.
3. Provide a description of how the treatment tool or intervention can be integrated into nursing practice. Provide evidence to support your discussion. Reflect how the treatment tool or intervention will affect nursing practice and the disease process.
4. Explain why psychological, cultural, and spiritual aspects are important to consider for a patient who has been diagnosed with diabetes. Describe how support can be offered in these respective areas as part of a plan of care for the patient. Provide examples.

This article reports on a study of a novel digital intervention called the Remote Family Coach (RFC) program for the management of type 1 diabetes in youth. The RFC program is a web-based program that provides youth and their caregivers with personalized education, support, and coaching to help them improve their diabetes self-management.
The study included 120 youth with type 1 diabetes who were randomly assigned to either the RFC program or to usual care. The results of the study showed that the RFC program was associated with significant improvements in HbA1c levels, self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) frequency, and diabetes-related quality of life. The RFC program was also well-received by youth and caregivers.
The findings of this study suggest that the RFC program is a promising new intervention for the management of type 1 diabetes in youth. The program is effective in improving HbA1c levels, SMBG frequency, and diabetes-related quality of life. The program is also well-received by youth and caregivers.
Here are some other research or evidence-based articles published within the last 5 years that focus comprehensively on a specific intervention or new treatment tool for the management of diabetes in adults or children:
These are just a few examples of the many research or evidence-based articles that have been published in recent years on new interventions and treatment tools for the management of diabetes. These articles provide valuable information on the effectiveness and safety of these interventions, and they can help healthcare providers make informed decisions about the best treatment options for their patients.
