Optimising Delivery of Diabetes Key Care Processes in UK Primary Care Settings A Scoping Review

<p dir="ltr"><u>Background</u>: Regular delivery of key care processes (KCPs) is essential for diabetes management, but uptake is suboptimal. </p><p dir="ltr"><u>Objective</u>: To systematically map literature on interventions and service content to optimise KCP delivery for diabetes patients in UK primary care.</p><p dir="ltr"><u>Eligibility criteria</u>: UK-based quantitative and qualitative research of any design involving adults or children with type 1 or 2 diabetes [population] in primary care settings [context]. Studies must pertain to interventions, service content, evaluations or prospective quality improvement studies measuring KCP delivery [concept]. </p><p dir="ltr"><u>Sources of evidence</u>: MEDLINE, EMBASE and grey literature sources.</p><p dir="ltr"><u>Charting methods</u>: Data will be extracted on study characteristics, intervention details using TIDieR items, and outcomes related to KCP delivery.</p><p dir="ltr"><u>Expected results</u>: A map of the existing evidence on interventions and service content for optimising diabetes KCP delivery in UK primary care, identifying knowledge gaps.</p>
