The Impact of a Self-Management Program Based on the 5 A's Model on Type 1 Diabetes in School-Aged Children

Conclusions: Self-management and self-care models, particularly the 5A model, are helpful at improving the control of these symptoms, reducing associated problems, enhancing nursing care, and enhancing patients' quality of life. Increasing the duration of a self-management programmer based on the 5 A's model for children with type 1 diabetes reduces negative attitudes and improves quality of life, but requires follow-up.
