In this blog, we will look at some of the studies registered with theISRCTN注册表that investigate the role of nursing care in diabetes and the provision of diabetes care during the COVID-19 pandemic. A collection of research into diabetes from Springer Nature to commemorate World Diabetes Day 2020 can be found on ourlanding page.
国际糖尿病联合会World Diabetes Day 2020falls on November 14th and the theme ‘Nurses make the difference for diabetes’ aims to raise awareness around the crucial role that nurses play in supporting people living with diabetes and the global shortage of nurses. Additionally, the UN has set ensuring healthy lives and promoting well-being for people of all ages as one of itssustainable development goals.
这UN sustainable development target 3.4 is to reduce premature mortality from non-communicable diseases, such as diabetes, by one-third by 2030 through prevention and treatment and the promotion of mental health and well-being.
Nurses play a vital role in the diagnosis and prevention of diabetes and the reduction of diabetic complications by tackling risk factors for type 2 diabetes, screening and diagnosing at-risk individuals, and providing education, self-management advice, and psychological support to patients.

瑞典研究将调查是否使用个性化支持计划对于2型糖尿病患者而言，未实现治疗目标的人可以有效控制血糖水平。这些计划将由糖尿病护士制定，他们将与患者合作，以确定自我管理的障碍并设定相关和可行的目标。
不同专业护士在糖尿病护理中的作用也很重要，因为许多糖尿病患者都有多种健康状况。这DEPSY study将研究针对精神病学护士量身定制的糖尿病教育的影响，因为患有严重精神疾病的人患糖尿病和糖尿病管理不良的风险更高，因此并发症。
