Effect of shared decision-making model on the management of diabetes high-risk groups

A shared decision-making (SDM) model-based intervention programme was implemented for a population at high risk for diabetes to explore its effectiveness in intervening with blood glucose levels in this population. One hundred residents were selected according to the principle of voluntary participation and divided into the intervention group (n = 50) and the control group (n = 50) by using multistage cluster sampling. The control group received only brief diabetes knowledge education through a disease brochure issued by the hospital; the intervention group implemented a SDM model based on large classroom and individualised education for 4 months. Univariate analysis and generalised estimating equation fitting model were used to analyse the effect of intervention on blood glucose parameters in the study subjects. Univariate analysis showed that after 4 months of intervention, fasting blood glucose was lower in the intervention group than in the control group (5.57 ± 0.56 vs. 6.07 ± 0.77, F = 45.721, p
