Full description

To evaluate the efficacy of an interdisciplinary collaborative care model combined with family empowerment (ICCM-FE) based on the COM-B model in managing comorbid hypertension and diabetes, focusing on its impact on blood pressure, glucose control, and psychosocial adaptation. This prospective randomized controlled trial (RCT) enrolled 187 patients with comorbid hypertension and diabetes from January 2023 to March 2024. Patients were randomly assigned to a control group (n = 93) receiving routine care and an observation group (n = 94) receiving ICCM-FE intervention. Follow-up was conducted over 6 months, assessing blood pressure (SBP and DBP), glucose levels (FPG and HbA1c), quality of life (SF-36 scale), psychosocial adaptation (PAIS-SR scale), and nursing satisfaction (NSNS scale) pre- and post-intervention.
