Can a sleep disorder intervention-embedded self-management programme contribute to improve management of diabetes? A pilot single-arm pretest and post-test study.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To investigate the efficacy and feasibility of a self-management programme incorporating a sleep intervention for improving diabetes outcomes.

Design

A single-arm pre-test and post-test study was conducted within a community setting in Hiroshima, Japan.

Participants
