The study looked at both the clinical and economic reasons that see the increased number of people living with the chronic diabetes condition as part of the public health issue of much importance.  There is a lot of emphasis on the responsibility of the patient and ensuring that they act in concert with the community provider, where diabetes self-management provides for a strategy in relieving the chronic conditions, and ensuring that patients act in concern to the provider community.  The scope of this study looked beyond various effective paradigms across the spectrum of prevention like the tertiary, secondary or primary. This is done well through establishment of a pattern for living a healthy lifestyle and coming up with strategies in managing and mitigating the illness and practical ways in looking at self-management as part of the future development. 

The research instrument in the study was questionnaire which looked at the issue of chronic conditions related to lifestyle and how self-management provide an opportunity for direct intervention and the personal level  with the potential it can have on the health behaviors.   The study also looked at various approaches in emphasizing self-management an tailored  to different populations, conditions and circumstances, which could be effective in regard to the prevention spectrum and coming up with a pattern for a healthy lifestyle. Also the researcher discusses different strategies that can be used in mitigating the illness and being able to manage it in a later life (Grady, P. A., & Gough, L. L. 2014).  The prevention mechanism takes three years and cannot exist in isolation for the other.  This is due to the fact that secondary and primary prevention is one of the elements of maintenance and healthcare.
