Background
The MyWay Diabetes (MWD) digital platform aims to improve diabetes management through personalised access to health records, structured education, and other self-management features.
Purpose
We aimed to assess health outcomes in MWD users with type 1 diabetes (T1DM) and type 2 diabetes (T2DM) over 6 years of use.
Methods
An interrupted time-series analysis in MWD users with T1DM or T2DM in Somerset, UK, compared pre- and post-MWD registration trends to estimate differences in health outcomes (HbA1c, blood pressure, lipids, BMI, weight). Generalised estimating equations modelling adjusted for participant baseline characteristics and identified significant predictors.
Results
A total of 7207 people (T1DM: n = 750 (52.3 % female, mean age 51.2 (SD15.8)), T2DM: n = 6457 (58.1 % male, mean age 64.7 (SD12.0))) were included in the analysis. The study showed some health outcomes improved significantly for T2DM between pre- and post-MWD registration. HbA1c reduced by 8.6 mmol/mol at 24 months post-MWD registration, with greatest improvements observed in users who were younger, had shorter diabetes durations and who were frequent MWD users. All health outcomes for T1DM were unchanged.
Conclusion
The large HbA1c reduction for T2DM is notable for a scalable digitally-enabled self-management intervention and adds to the evidence base for digital interventions for diabetes self-management.
