However, the perceptions of young people and health care professionals\u2019 (HCPs) toward the use of social media for type 1 diabetes self-management have not been systematically reviewed.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Objective<\/jats:title>\n The aim of this study is to explore and summarize the experiences and views of young people with type 1 diabetes and their HCPs on using social media for self-management across qualitative findings.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Methods<\/jats:title>\n We searched MEDLINE, Embase, PsycINFO, and CINAHL from 2012 to 2023 using Medical Subject Heading terms and text words related to type 1 diabetes and social media. We screened and selected the studies according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. We quality appraised and characterized the included studies and conducted a thematic synthesis.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n We included 11 studies in our synthesis. A total of 9 of them were qualitative and 2 were mixed methods studies. Ten focused on young people with type 1 diabetes and 1 on HCPs. All used content analysis and were of moderate to high quality. Thirteen descriptive themes were yielded by our thematic synthesis, contributing to five analytic themes: (1) differences in how young people interact with social media, (2) characteristics of social media platforms that influence their use and uptake for type 1 diabetes self-management, (3) social media as a source of information, (4) impact on young people\u2019s coping and emotional well-being, and (5) impact on support from and relationships with HCPs and services.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n The synthesis suggests that we should consider leveraging social media\u2019s peer support capabilities to augment the traditional services for young people with type 1 diabetes. However, the patients may have privacy concerns about HCPs\u2019 involvement in their online activities. This warrants an update of existing guidelines to help young people use social media safely for self-managing their diabetes.<\/jats:p>\n
