This study examines physical activity intervention outcome measures in children with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D). Additionally, it explores medical and psychosocial outcomes. Five databases (CINAHL, PsycINFO, MEDLINE, PubMed, Scopus) were used in this study. The selection of articles was done by using exclusion and inclusion criteria. The articles chosen for this study were restricted to those written in English and had to be peer-reviewed and published between 2012 and 2023. Besides, the focus was on quantitative studies. Six articles were eligible to be used in this study. Intervention types, durations, and outcome measurements have been reported. Results showed that the length of intervention should be more than twelve weeks to see the actual effect of interventions.
Additionally, while an effect of physical activity on glycemic control was observed, generalizable psychosocial outcomes could not be obtained. In future research, to reach generalizable conclusions, the sample of this study should be expanded. Also, in addition to clinical data, getting psychosocial data can provide helpful insights. It can offer tips to improve participants' quality of life.
