Telehealth has become an essential tool in diabetes management, offering remote monitoring, virtual consultations, and digital health interventions. Nurses play a critical role in telehealth by providing patient education, monitoring glucose levels, and supporting self-management.
This literature review examines the effectiveness of nursing-led telehealth interventions in diabetes care and explores the challenges of implementation. A systematic review of peer-reviewed studies published in the last decade was conducted. Findings indicate that telehealth interventions improve glycaemic control, enhance patient adherence, and reduce hospitalizations. However, barriers such as digital literacy, connectivity issues, and data security concerns remain significant.
Addressing these challenges through improved infrastructure and policy integration is essential for optimizing health in nursing practice. This review con-tributes to the growing body of evidence supporting telehealth as a sustainable model for diabetes care.
