After you have completed this worksheet, submit it in Canvas by Saturday of week 1. If there are problems with your question, you will receive feedback. You have until Saturday of week 2 to correct it, but there will be a 5% deduction for each day after the Saturday of week 1.

First, identify each element of your PICO on the line below, then take a look at the templates below to help you formulate a PICO(T) question.

P: Population/disease (i.e. age, gender, ethnicity, with a certain disorder)

P: Older adults having Type II diabetes _______________________________________________________________

I: Intervention or Variable of Interest (exposure to a disease, risk behavior, prognostic factor) Note: Not every question will have an intervention (as in a meaning question – see below).

I: Practicing healthy diet and lifestyle changes _______________________________________________________________

C: Comparison: (could be a placebo or “business as usual” as in no disease, absence of risk factor). Note: This is not used in a meaning question – see below.

C: Older adults who do not practice healthy diet and lifestyle changes

______________________________________________________________

O: Outcome: (risk of disease, accuracy of a diagnosis, rate of occurrence of adverse outcome)

O: lower glycated hemoglobin and blood sugar level _______________________________________________________________


T:

Time: The time it takes to demonstrate an outcome (e.g. the time it takes for the intervention to achieve an outcome or how long participants are observed). This is an optional “add-on” for a PICO question.

Abstract

Background: Changing diet and physical activity behaviour is one of the cornerstones of type 2 diabetes
treatment, but changing behaviour is challenging. The objective of this study was to identify behaviour change
techniques (BCTs) and intervention features of dietary and physical activity interventions for patients with type 2
diabetes that are associated with changes in HbA1c and body weight.

Methods: We performed a systematic review of papers published between 1975–2015 describing randomised
controlled trials (RCTs) that focused exclusively on both diet and physical activity. The constituent BCTs, intervention
features and methodological rigour of these interventions were evaluated. Changes in HbA1c and body weight
were meta-analysed and examined in relation to use of BCTs.

Results: Thirteen RCTs were identified. Meta-analyses revealed reductions in HbA1c at 3, 6, 12 and 24 months of -1.
11 % (12 mmol/mol), -0.67 % (7 mmol/mol), -0.28 % (3 mmol/mol) and -0.26 % (2 mmol/mol) with an overall
reduction of -0.53 % (6 mmol/mol [95 % CI -0.74 to -0.32, P < 0.00001]) in intervention groups compared to control
groups. Meta-analyses also showed a reduction in body weight of -2.7 kg, -3.64 kg, -3.77 kg and -3.18 kg at 3, 6, 12
and 24 months, overall reduction was -3.73 kg (95 % CI -6.09 to -1.37 kg, P = 0.002).
Four of 46 BCTs identified were associated with >0.3 % reduction in HbA1c: ‘instruction on how to perform a
behaviour’, ‘behavioural practice/rehearsal’, ‘demonstration of the behaviour’ and ‘action planning’, as were
intervention features ‘supervised physical activity’, ‘group sessions’, ‘contact with an exercise physiologist’, ‘contact
with an exercise physiologist and a dietitian’, ‘baseline HbA1c >8 %’ and interventions of greater frequency and
intensity.

Conclusions: Diet and physical activity interventions achieved clinically significant reductions in HbA1c at three and
six months, but not at 12 and 24 months. Specific BCTs and intervention features identified may inform more
effective structured lifestyle intervention treatment strategies for type 2 diabetes.

Introduction

Globally, type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) was the direct cause
of an estimated 1.5 million deaths in 2012, whereas hyper-
glycemia accounted for another 2.2 million deaths (World
Health Organization [WHO], 2016). In Singapore, type 2
DM was the second leading cause of morbidity and mortality
in 2015 (Ministry of Health [MOH], 2016). Complications
arising from type 2 DM included an increase in new inci-
dences of kidney failure from 46% in 1999 to 62% in 2009,
with a corresponding increase in end stage renal disease from
28% in 1999 to 44% in 2009 (Singapore Health Promotion
Board, 2011). In addition, it was reported that about one in
two heart attack cases and two in five stroke cases had type 2
DM in 2014 (MOH, 2016). Type 2 DM was also associated
with a 3-fold increase in mortality, of which most were
related to cardiovascular diseases, and a 3-fold to 7-fold
increase in the risk of coronary artery disease (MOH, 2016).
A recent study also revealed that there are now more than
1,500 diabetes-related amputations per year, and one in five

of these patients died within a year of their amputation in
Singapore (Ang, Yap, Saxena, Lin, & Heng, 2016).

Background

Given the global shift in aging population, the inevitable
demographic change in the prevalence of diabetes and related
complications would see a further increase in older adults.
The fundamental measure to prevent diabetes-related com-
plications is an active lifestyle modification including dietary
control, regular physical exercise, medication adherence,

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and associated complications are leading causes of death in the United States (American Diabetes Association
[ADA], 2017). T2DM is a prominent chronic disease in
the United States, with the total medical cost of diagnos-
ing and treating diabetes exceeding $245 billion per year
(Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2015). In
2012, the ADA (2017) reported 29.1 million Americans
had T2DM, representing 9.3% of the overall population.
Estimates indicate as many as 25.9% of American older

adults age 65 and older have T2DM (ADA, 2017).
T2DM and its related complications present major so-

cial and economic burdens for society, and 1.4 million new
cases of T2DM are diagnosed every year (ADA, 2017).
Despite new pharmacological innovations and advances
in diabetes research, only 14.3% of patients with diabetes
are at their glycemic goal (ADA, 2017). The ADA and
the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists re-
leased standards of care for individuals with T2DM, and
both of these standards include DSME/S at their core
(Powers et al., 2015).

The patient-centered care aspect of DSME/S relies on
five guiding principles of patient engagement. These guid-
ing principles are: (a) information sharing, (b) psychoso-
cial support, (c) behavioral support, (d) multidisciplinary
integration of care, and (e) care coordination (Powers et
al., 2015). This practice change initiative integrated all of
these aspects in the care of patients with T2DM, specifi-
cally targeting patients age 65 and older. The behaviors in-
volved in DSME/S are culturally sensitive, dynamic, and
multidimensional, which play a significant role in setting
goals and developing a plan of care (Powers et al., 2015).
In this context, each patient received specific, individual-
ized, and attainable goals to follow for a period of 4 weeks
and beyond.

Diabetes self-management education and support

(DSME/S) has been demonstrated as an effective inter-
vention and a billable service; however, DSME/S has yet
to be successfully translated and diffused into main-
stream practice. This project sought to improve glyce-
mic control (measured by A1C or fasting blood glucose
[FBG]) and quality of life (QOL) of Medicare patients
age 65 years and older with type 2 diabetes (T2DM)
using DSME/S. DSME/S included information sharing
between patients and providers, psychosocial support,
behavioral support with lifestyle modification, multi-
disciplinary integration, and care coordination. Patient-
specific data were compared before and 4 weeks after
project implementation. Use of DSME/S

Objective: The objective is to formulate clinical practice guidelines for the treatment of diabetes in
older adults.

Conclusions: Diabetes, particularly type 2, is becoming more prevalent in the general population,
especially in individuals over the age of 65 years. The underlying pathophysiology of the disease in
these patients is exacerbated by the direct effects of aging on metabolic regulation. Similarly, aging
effects interact with diabetes to accelerate the progression of many common diabetes compli-
cations. Each section in this guideline covers all aspects of the etiology and available evidence,
primarily from controlled trials, on therapeutic options and outcomes in this population. The goal is
to give guidance to practicing health care providers that will benefit patients with diabetes (both
type 1 and type 2), paying particular attention to avoiding unnecessary and/or harmful adverse
effects. (J Clin Endocrinol Metab 104: 1520–1574, 2019)

Effect of Self-efficacy and Depression on Quality of Life in Outpatients with CHF

Heart disease is one of the leading causes of death among people with different racial and ethnic groups all over the world. Heart failure occurs when the heart cannot pump enough blood and oxygen to support other organs in our body. Although it is a very serious condition, it doesn’t mean that the heart has stopped beating but it causes people to have difficult time performing their daily activities. About 6.2 million adults in United States have heart failure and 659,000 people die from the heart disease each year which is 1 in every 4 deaths (CDC, 2020). According to CDC guidelines, the total cost of health disease was estimated $363 billion from 2016 to 2017 which includes the cost of health care services, medication and missed days of work from an individual. Likewise, heart failure was mentioned on 379,800 death certificates in 2018 (CDC, 2020). Living with Chronic Heart Failure can be very challenging as many of them report poor quality of life and emotional distress. The PICO question based on the topic of heart failure is, in outpatient (25-50 years old) with chronic heart failure (P), how does self-efficacy and depression (I) influence quality of life (O) compared to having family support (C) over one year(T)?

In research study, participants were recruited through outpatient cardiology clinics at a tertiary hospital in Singapore. Based on the literature review, the study selected six factors (physical and emotional dimensions, depression, self-efficacy, social demographics, length of diagnosis and social support) to identify the predictive factors of health-related quality of life of outpatient with CHF by using multiple linear regression analysis. Among these factors, only depression measured by SF-CDS (ß= 0.637, p<0.001, 95%CI: 2.04-3.01) and self-efficacy assessed by CSS (ß=-0.220, p<0.001,95%CI: -10.70 to -3.23) were significant predictive factors of health-related quality of life for outpatients with CHF accounting for nearly 70% of the variance (Loo et al., 2016). Being able to perform daily living activities increases the sense of living with the illness in the patient. Higher level of self-efficacy like confidence in managing the symptoms and self-care among the participants have reported improved quality of life. Similarly, the patients who don’t have adequate resources to deal with the challenges associated with CHF should also be considered. CHF result in limiting mental health along with the
