Patient, family and caregiver engagement in diabetes care: a scoping review protocol.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

New treatments and technologies have advanced diabetes care; however, diabetes continues to have a major impact on the daily lives of affected individuals, especially among equity-deserving groups. Evidence from patient engagement literature suggests that involving diverse patients in healthcare can create cost-effective improvements and enhanced efficiency in care that has high patient acceptability and numerous health benefits, as well as improved provider satisfaction. A scoping review will be conducted to provide a cohesive and comprehensive understanding of patient engagement practices and the resulting outcomes.

Methods and analysis

The review will follow the recommendations for the conduct of scoping reviews developed by the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI)
