Sumario:AIMS: To systematically identify and describe models of injectable therapy initiation for people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in primary care. METHODS: Eight electronic databases and the grey literature were searched. Studies examining models of injectable therapy initiation for adults with T2DM in primary care settings were included. RESULTS: Successful models included: 1) Nurse-led one-to-one approach; 2) Nurse-led group sessions; and 3) Providing education to GPs and nurses. CONCLUSIONS: Few robust studies were found. Studied models were mainly in general practices, with limited evidence documented about starting people with T2DM on an injectable in the home setting.
