Abstract
Objective: The objective of this review is to synthesize existing qualitative evidence on the experiences and perceptions of caregivers caring for children and adolescents with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D).
Introduction: The rising number of new cases of T2D in children and adolescents highlights the urgent need for effective management strategies. Caregivers of these children face significant challenges in providing care and managing the condition.
Eligibility criteria: This review will include caregivers of children and adolescents with T2D, regardless of age, gender, social status, or marital status. It will consider studies that explore caregivers' experiences and perceptions of caring for children and adolescents with T2D in home, school, and community settings, as well as those addressing treatment adjustments and peer responses within the school environment. Caregivers of children and adolescents with other types of diabetes, such as type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D), will be excluded.
Methods: This qualitative systematic review will follow JBI methodology. We will search both published and unpublished studies in Embase (Ovid), MEDLINE (PubMed), CINAHL (EBSCOhost), Cochrane Library (CENTRAL), LILACS (BVS), PsycINFO (Ovid), Web of Science Core Collection, and Scopus without date limitations. Sources of unpublished studies and gray literature include Google Scholar and the Open Access Theses and Dissertations (OATD). Two independent reviewers will assess methodological validity. The standardized JBI data extraction tool will be used for data extraction. Data will be synthesized using meta-aggregation, and a certainty of findings will be determined using the ConQual approach.
