mHealth interventions for disadvantaged and vulnerable people with type 2 diabetes.
The authors evaluate the impact of diabetes self-management interventions delivered via mobile device and/or Internet on glycemic control of disadvantaged/vulnerable adults with type 2 diabetes. They found evidence suggesting that digital interventions can improve diabetes control, healthcare utilization, and healthcare costs. More research to substantiate these early findings is recommended; the authors suggest that many issues remain in order to optimize the impact of digital interventions on the health outcomes of disadvantaged/vulnerable persons with diabetes.

The design, usability, and feasibility of a family-focused diabetes self-care support mHealth intervention for diverse, low-income adults with type 2 diabetes.
Through user-centered design and iterative usability/feasibility testing, the researchers developed a mobile Health intervention for disadvantaged adults with type 2 diabetes (T2D) called FAMS. FAMS delivers phone coaching to set self-care goals and improve patient participant's (PP) ability to identify and address family actions that support/impede self-care. PPs reported FAMS increased self-care and both PPs and support persons reported FAMS improved support for and communication about diabetes.
