Abstract

Managing type 1 diabetes in pediatric patients necessitates ongoing self-management to maintain glycemic control and reduce the risk of complications. This review aimed to evaluate the impact of educational interventions on enhancing self-care among children diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. The analysis of relevant studies indicates that structured educational programs particularly those involving family engagement, integration of advanced technologies, and implementation within school environments significantly contribute to heightened awareness, improved self-care practices, and more effective blood glucose regulation. These findings highlight the critical need to develop educational strategies tailored to the developmental stage and psychological characteristics of children, offering valuable guidance for both clinical management and educational policy development.
