- This study evaluated community health worker-led diabetes care using a digital clinical decision support system compared to facility-based care in rural Lesotho.
- At 12 months, glycated haemoglobin was lower in the intervention arm (6.5%) than in the control arm (7.1%), with an adjusted mean difference of -0.46%.
- Engagement in care was higher in the CHW-led intervention arm, with no significant difference in safety outcomes observed.
