A study has revealed that structured self-management education can significantly improve health outcomes for individuals with chronic cardiometabolic diseases, including hypertension, diabetes, stroke, and obesity.

The findings were discussed at the closing ceremony of the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) CREATE project on March 6, 2025, at the Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital, a three-year feasibility study conducted in Ghana, Kenya, and Mozambique.

The project focused on empowering patients to take control of their health through education rather than medication or direct medical interventions.
