Enfermería traslacional: revisión sistemática de los determinantes conductuales y el control glucémico en adultos con diabetes tipo 2
##plugins.themes.themeEleven.article.main##
Palabras clave
Diabetes Mellitus Tipo 2, Alfabetización en Salud, Autoeficacia, Autocuidado, Enfermería Traslacional
Resumen
Introducción: la Diabetes tipo 2 (DT2) es un desafío prioritario por su prevalencia y consecuencias del descontrol glucémico. Con el enfoque de enfermería traslacional los determinantes conductuales son centrales en la modulación de los resultados metabólicos.
Objetivo: analizar la relación entre alfabetización en salud, autoeficacia y autocuidado con el control glucémico (HbA1c) en adultos con diabetes tipo 2.
Metodología: revisión sistemática según PRISMA 2020. Se incluyeron estudios de cohorte y ensayos clínicos aleatorizados sobre alfabetización en salud, autoeficacia y autocuidado y su relación con el control glucémico (HbA1c). Se integraron matrices de trazabilidad y evidencia crítica, sistematizando las métricas reportadas por cada estudio sin recalcularlas.
Resultados: la alfabetización en salud mostró la asociación menos consistente con el control glucémico. La autoeficacia se asoció de forma más consistente con mejoras en la HbA1c. El autocuidado mostró asociaciones significativas en la mayoría de los estudios, con resultados inconsistentes en un subgrupo de ensayos.
Conclusión: la autoeficacia y el autocuidado mostraron las asociaciones más consistentes con el control glucémico, mientras que la alfabetización en salud presentó resultados más heterogéneos. Estos hallazgos respaldan a la enfermería traslacional como eje estratégico para transformar esta evidencia en intervenciones clínicas de alto impacto.
