Monitoring techniques (MT)
Self-monitoring training and feedback. Training and encouraging people to recognize, monitor, and record behaviours, symptoms, or clinical data. This process may include regular feedback from a clinician, or a synopsis of information registered in a digital tool to encourage you to continue monitoring your illness and behaviours.
Example: Showing a patient how to record blood sugar levels, physical activity, or pain.
Action-based behavioural change techniques (AB)
Emotional-based change techniques (EB)
Social support (SS)
In group
Two or more patients or caregivers receive a self-management intervention. Group interventions are normally organized for efficiency purposes or to facilitate learning and knowledge exchange among peers (people living with the same health condition). For example, peer-led education group to enhance physical activity in obese individuals.
Face-to-face
Self-management support delivered in a face-to-face encounter between the providers and patients and/or caregivers.
