The impact of peer coach-led type 2 diabetes mellitus interventions on glycaemic control and self-management outcomes: A systematic review and meta-analysis

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a major health risk and dominant cause of global mortality and morbidity. Disease-specific support from peers with similar chronic condition has shown to improve chronic disease self-management outcomes. The purpose of this systematic review is to summarise the existing evidence on the impact of peer coach-led type 2 diabetes mellitus self-management interventions on glycaemic control and self-management outcomes. Databases including MEDLINE, PubMed, CINAHL Plus, Scopus, ProQuest Central, ScienceDirect, web of science, Wiley Online Library and UOW Library were searched for eligible papers.
