  ABSTRACT: This study aimed to construct an intervention pathway led by brain-heart health managers based on the Information-Motivation-Behavioral Skills (IMB) model and to evaluate its effects on self-management behaviors and clinical outcomes in patients with diabetes. A randomized controlled intervention study was conducted among 120 patients with diabetes at high risk for stroke, who were randomly assigned to an intervention group (n = 60) or a control group (n = 60). The control group received routine nursing care, while the intervention group received an IMB model-based intervention in addition to routine care for six months. Outcomes included diabetes self-management behaviors, glycemic indicators, cognitive function, and nursing satisfaction. At 6 months, the intervention group had significantly better self-management behavior scores, glycemic indicators, cognitive function scores, and nursing satisfaction than the control group (all P
