Outcomes measured in studies assessing health systems interventions for type 1 diabetes management: A scoping review
Authors' conclusion
This study provides a description of what researchers are measuring when assessing health systems interventions to improve type 1 diabetes management. In contrast to a COS, it was found that there is a predominance of clinical-based outcomes over patient-reported outcome measures.
