Dyadic Management Intervention in Older People With Co-occurring Cognitive Impairment and Diabetes as a Supplementary Approach to Chronic Diseases Self-Management Program
This trial tests whether a six-week group self-management program, taught to older adults with diabetes and memory concerns alongside their caregivers, improves diabetes self-care and thinking skills. Sessions run weekly for 2.5 hours. It is a behavioral study with no drug, so no phase applies. Researchers also look at how well it works in real-world settings.
