Abstract

To explore the effect of nurse-led psychological interventions on diabetes distress, depression, and glycemic control in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Seven databases were systematically searched. Outcome measures were diabetes distress, depression, and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) level. RoB 2.0 was used for risk of bias assessment. Data were synthesized using Review Manager 5.4 software. Fourteen studies were included from 2,837 articles. Five studies pooled in the meta-analysis demonstrated reduction in diabetes distress (standard mean difference = -0.36, 95% confidence interval [-0.49, -0.24], p < 0.001), favoring nurse-led psychological interventions over controls. Effects of the interventions on depression and HbA1c level were inconsistent across studies. Nurse-led psychological interventions demonstrated the effect of reducing diabetes distress and some promising benefits for depression and glycemic control. Integrating nurse-led psychological interventions into usual care will be beneficial for individuals with T2DM in the future.
