CAMPO GUINEA, N. e PORTILLO, M.C.. Patients´ selfmanagement of type 2 diabetes: a narrative review. Anales Sis San Navarra [online]. 2013, vol.36, n.3, pp.489-504. ISSN 1137-6627. https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/S1137-66272013000300014.
According to the World Health Organization in 2030 the number of people with diabetes mellitus will reach 366 millions in the whole world, having the diabetes mellitus type 2 the highest prevalence. The current National Chronicity and Diabetes Strategies advocate patients´ selfmanagement programmes and / or interventions. Nevertheless, the lack of knowledge and inadequate attitudes hinder the associative relationship between patients and professionals that is required in these programmes. This literature review aims to show the outstanding needs that type 2 diabetes mellitus patients have when it comes to managing the illness. Thus, results from this literature review could set the bases for the development of future effective programmes, helping professionals approach patients´ needs.
