“…After a web-based diabetes education program was developed for patients with type 1 diabetes, there was no significant change in the HbA1c levels of the patients, while the self-efficacy of the individuals with diabetes improved and their quality of life increased ( 69 ). In another study with type 2 diabetics comparing web-based diabetes education, better metabolic results were obtained in patients using the web-based system compared to those not using it ( 70 ).…”

The past two decades have witnessed telemedicine becoming a crucial part of health care as a method to facilitate doctor-patient interaction. Due to technological developments and the incremental acquisition of experience in its use, telemedicine’s advantages and cost-effectiveness has led to it being recognised as specifically relevant to diabetology. However, the pandemic created new challenges for healthcare systems and the rate of development of digital services started to grow exponentially. It was soon discovered that COVID-19-infected patients with diabetes had an increased risk of both mortality and debilitating sequelae. In addition, it was observed that this higher risk could be attenuated primarily by maintaining optimal control of the patient’s glucose metabolism. As opportunities for actual physical doctor-patient visits became restricted, telemedicine provided the most convenient opportunity to communicate with patients and maintain delivery of care. The wide range of experiences of health care provision during the pandemic has led to the development of several excellent strategies regarding the applicability of telemedicine across the whole spectrum of diabetes care. The continuation of these strategies is likely to benefit clinical practice even after the pandemic crisis is over.

“…Thirteen of the studies considered HbA1c as the primary endpoint [ 30 – 36 , 38 , 39 , 41 , 42 , 45 , 46 ]. Four studies included other metabolic parameters [ 29 – 31 , 44 ], such as glucose, lipid profile, weight, and blood pressure. Three studies used validated self-management questionnaires [ 28 , 31 , 39 ].…”

Objective Diabetes Self-Management Education and Support (DSMES) is a critical component of diabetes care. This study aims to examine the effect of online-based educational interventions on diabetes management compared to face-to-face interventions. Methods A systematic review was conducted by searching three databases for studies in English or Spanish between December 2023 and March 2024. The inclusion criteria were studies that compared face-to-face DSMES with online interventions. Results The follow-up duration of the trials ranged from 1 to 12 months. Multidisciplinary teams delivered online DSMES through various means, including Short Message Service (SMS), telephone calls, video calls, websites, and applications. Online DSMES was found to be comparable to face-to-face interventions in terms of glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels in people with type 1 diabetes (T1D). In contrast, online interventions that focus on weight management in people with type 2 diabetes (T2D) have shown a significant reduction in HbA1c compared to face-to-face interventions. Online DSMES was found to be superior in terms of quality of life and cost-effectiveness in both T1D and T2D. None of the analyzed studies explored the differences between individual and group methodologies. Conclusions The current evidence indicates that online DSMES services provide at least comparable biomedical benefits to face-to-face interventions, suggesting that online interventions could be incorporated into clinical practice as a complement or reinforcement. However, further research is needed to explore the potential benefits and effectiveness of online group sessions in DSMES.

“…Based on the results of the research conducted, a website-based e-health service system is needed that can help and educate [17], [18] DM patients about DM disease, its symptoms, and how to treat it, patients can also control [19] by how to conduct consultations and web-based online questions and answers [20], [21] without having to pay for a consultation or monitoring [22], [23], [24] of the illness so that preventive measures can be taken. With this system, it is expected to be able to provide online services, education, and prevention and reduce DM sufferers in Pekalongan City.…”

BACKGROUND: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic disease caused by the inability of the pancreas to produce insulin or the body cannot use the insulin it produces effectively. Pekalongan City is one of the cities in Indonesia with a high prevalence of DM. The number of DM sufferers is caused by heredity, unhealthy lifestyle. AIM: The aim of the study was to create a website-based service system (e-health) that can assist the community in conducting consultation and monitoring activities for people with DM. METHODS: The method used is research and development where data and information are obtained by conducting observations, interviews and sampling both to health consultants, DM sufferers and the people of Pekalongan City. Consultants or health teams include doctors, nutritionists, psychologists and nurses. The number of people with DM was 40 respondents. RESULTS: The number of DM sufferers in Pekalongan City was 12,132 people consisting of 100 people with type-1 DM and 12,032 type-2 DM. A total of 66.7% of respondents experienced DM from heredity and 33.3% due to lifestyle and diet. As many as 48% of respondents experienced DM for <1 year, 32% between 1 and 3 years, 4% between 3 and 5 years, and 16% more than 5 years. Most (65%) respondents need online services, 10.3% really need it, 13.8% do not need it, and 10.3% do not need it. Most of the respondents needed consultation as much (56.7%), 10% essential, 13.3% less necessary, and 20% not necessary. Most require consultation with a team of health workers, as much as 62.5%, 15.6% very necessary, and 21.9% less necessary. CONCLUSION: Web-based health information system (e-health) can provide easy access for DM sufferers needed in education, consultation and monitoring, so as to reduce the number of DM sufferers in Pekalongan City.
