Type 2 diabetes (TD2) is a chronic condition that affects millions of people, worldwide there is a prevalence of 6059 cases per 100 thousand people. One of the fundamental aspects for the treatment of T2D is self-care. Chronic diseases require special care and responsibility on the part of patients who suffer them.<\/p>

The research: Digital Health Interventions for People With Type 2 Diabetes to Develop Self-Care Expertise, Adapt to Identity Changes, and Influence Other\u2019s Perception: Qualitative Study, published in the JMIR, was led by researchers from the School of Medicine of the University of Bristol in the United Kingdom. It offers an approach to self-care behaviors of patients with T2D using digital technologies.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The study aimed to obtain information on how and why people living with T2D use digital self-care technology and how experiences vary among individuals and social groups. To this end, they recruited patients with T2D who had used a digital intervention to help them care for their condition.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

Twenty-one people participated and were interviewed through a semi-structured method and the data was analyzed by topic. \u201cParticipants used digital interventions to help them to understand and feel more in control of their bodies. Digital interventions were used by participants to project their chosen identity to others,\u201d the study mentions in the results section.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The different self-care experiences included technologies such as conventional blood glucose meters, or sensors that attach to the body that accomplish the same task. They also mentioned technologies that facilitate interaction with medical specialists, such as the use of electronic medical records that patients can consult on the Internet.<\/p>

\u201cParticipants in this study used technology to help them understand their body, develop their expertise in self-care, and keep them engaged in the management of their condition. Through the use of digital interventions, participants could better understand and control their bodies and their diabetes,\u201d the research mentions in the discussion section.<\/p>

Participants included people from different socioeconomic levels, meaning that not all participants have the same opportunity to access technologies for the treatment and self-care of their condition. However, age groups are also a factor, since the sample included adults over 50 interested in technology.<\/p>

\u201cDigital health technology was used to support the expression of positive identities (a good patient, an expert, or in control) or to avoid a stigmatized identity (by resisting the diagnosis or hiding their condition),\u201d the study concludes.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Estudio publicado en Journal Internet of Medicine (JMIR), explica las intervenciones en Salud Digital utilizadas en pacientes con diabetes tipo 2, para desarrollar conductas de autocuidado. La diabetes tipo 2 (DM2), es una condici\u00f3n cr\u00f3nica que afecta a millones de personas, a nivel mundial hay una prevalencia de 6059 casos por cada 100 mil personas. Uno de los aspectos fundamentales para el tratamiento de la DM2, es el autocuidado. Las enfermedades cr\u00f3nicas requieren especial cuidado y responsabilidad por parte de los pacientes que las padecen. La investigaci\u00f3n:  Intervenciones de salud digital para personas con diabetes tipo 2 para desarrollar experiencia en el cuidado personal, adaptarse a los cambios de identidad e influir en la percepci\u00f3n de los dem\u00e1s: estudio cualitativo, publicada en el JMIR, fue dirigido por investigadores de la Escuela de Medicina de la Universidad de Bristol en el Reino Unido. El cual ofrece un acercamiento a las conductas de autocuidado de pacientes con DM2 que utilizan tecnolog\u00edas digitales. El estudio tuvo como objetivo obtener informaci\u00f3n sobre c\u00f3mo y por qu\u00e9 las personas que viven con DM2 utilizan la tecnolog\u00eda de autocuidado digital y c\u00f3mo var\u00edan las experiencias entre individuos y grupos sociales. Para ello reclutaron pacientes con DM2 que hab\u00edan utilizado una intervenci\u00f3n digital para ayudarles a cuidar de su padecimiento. Participaron 21 personas, las cuales fueron entrevistadas a trav\u00e9s de un m\u00e9todo semiestructurado y los datos fueron analizados por temas. “Los participantes utilizaron intervenciones digitales para ayudarles a comprender y sentirse m\u00e1s en control de sus cuerpos. Los participantes utilizaron intervenciones digitales para proyectar su identidad elegida a los dem\u00e1s”, menciona el estudio en el apartado de resultados. Las diferentes experiencias del autocuidado incluyeron tecnolog\u00edas como medidores de glucosa en sangre convencionales, o sensores que se adhieren al cuerpo que cumplen con la misma tarea. Asimismo, tambi\u00e9n mencionaron sobre tecnolog\u00edas que facilitaran la interacci\u00f3n con los m\u00e9dicos especialistas, como la utilizaci\u00f3n de registros m\u00e9dicos electr\u00f3nicos que los pacientes pueden consultar en Internet. \u201cLos participantes de este estudio utilizaron la tecnolog\u00eda para ayudarlos a comprender su cuerpo, desarrollar su experiencia en el cuidado personal y mantenerlos comprometidos con el manejo de su condici\u00f3n. Mediante el uso de intervenciones digitales, los participantes pudieron comprender y controlar mejor sus cuerpos y su diabetes\u201d, menciona la investigaci\u00f3n en el apartado de discusi\u00f3n. Los participantes incluyeron personas de diferentes niveles socioecon\u00f3micos, es decir no todos los participantes tienen la misma oportunidad de acceso a tecnolog\u00edas para el tratamiento y autocuidado de su padecimiento. Sin embargo, los grupos de edad tambi\u00e9n son factor, ya que la muestra incluy\u00f3 adultos mayores de 50 interesados en tecnolog\u00eda. \u201cLa tecnolog\u00eda de la salud digital se utiliz\u00f3 para apoyar la expresi\u00f3n de identidades positivas (un buen paciente, un experto o en control) o para evitar una identidad estigmatizada (resistiendo el diagn\u00f3stico u ocultando su condici\u00f3n)\u201d, concluye el estudio.
