Description
Anna Nguyen and eight colleagues published a pilot study in two thousand twenty-six on diabetes self-care for Vietnamese Americans. Standard diabetes education improves outcomes, but language and culture keep many Vietnamese Americans from joining. The team built a programme delivered in Vietnamese with automated links plus nurse calls.
Eighty-eight adults with type two diabetes from ten clinics took part for three months, then were followed for a year. Surveys every three months tracked blood sugar and self-care. Interviews and focus groups explored whether clinics and patients would adopt and keep the programme. The design mixed numbers with voices to judge feasibility and early effect together. Results feed a planned larger trial.
