ABSTRACT
Background: The global burden of type 2 diabetes mellitus is rapidly increasing, affecting individuals of all ages. The global burden of T2DM in people 20–79 years is further projected to increase to 629 mil- lion in 2045 compared to 425 million in 2017. Methods: A review of various published literatures was identified to evaluate the effectiveness of clinical pharmacist services reporting educational and/or psychological interventions for people with T2DM were implemented. We conducted searches using MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, PubMed and ASSIA databases between January 2007–2015. The Studies published in English were included. Two reviewers independently extracted data on participant and intervention characteristics. The quality of evidence was rated on predetermined criteria. Main outcomes included glycaemic control, blood pressure control and reduction in obesity levels. Conclusion: It has been concluded that the diabetes prevention programmes can significantly reduce the progression to type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypertension and obesity with usual care. Those developing prevention programmes should adhere to the standard NICE guidelines to increase efficacy.
