December 3, 2014 updated by: Randa Atallah, Université de Montréal

Assessing the Effects of Education Program for Lebanese Diabetic Type 2 in Their Behavior of Auto Managing Their Sense of Self-efficacy and on Their Adhesion Therapy

Diabetes mellitus is a disease of great frequency and is a major public health problem. In Lebanon, the incidence of diabetes is estimated at 12%, it is expected to double by the year 2025. Given the increasing prevalence of diabetes in Lebanon, the evolution of complications of this disease and the lack of studies at this level, it is appropriate to conduct a study that aims to evaluate the effects an education program for people with type 2 diabetes on their sense of self-efficacy and their ability to self-manage their disease to make them the most optimal therapeutic adherence possible. The design of this study is experimental type before / after randomization by diabetic patients. Education program delivered to the experimental group is the "Accu-Chek Education Program" of Roche. Membership will be assessed using a biomarker HbA1c should be <7%, and a questionnaire (Summary of Diabetes Self-Care Activities Measure), which measures self-care behaviors. Self-efficacy is measured using the Diabetes Management Self-Efficacy Scale. And this before the intervention and 3 months later. The sample will be 240 diabetic patients T2. Recruitment will be in outpatient diabetology a Hospital located in Beirut. Statistical analyzes used for descriptive variables are measures of central tendency, dispersion and frequency distribution. T-test and chi-square will be used to compare the socio-demographic characteristics of the 2 groups, experimental and control. To test hypotheses and determine the difference in the results of the dependent variables of the 2 groups, analysis of variance and covariance are used. The data will be processed using SPSS version 14.0.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

  1. Following the implementation of a program of education, feeling of self-efficacy participants will be higher in the experimental group than in the control group.
  2. Following the implementation of a program of education, self-management behaviors: monitoring the diet, the practice of physical exercise, self-monitoring blood sugar, taking medications and care feet, participants will be higher in the experimental group than in the control group.
  3. Following the implementation of a program of education, the percentage of participants who have an HbA1c less than 7 will be higher in the experimental group than in the control group.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Experimental: education program
education program in 6 hours for groups of 10 people. The content will be divided into 2 sessions with an interval of 2 weeks, the duration of each session is 3 hours. Means active learning, teaching materials in Arabic accompany the content masterful discussions on flipcharts, situation analysis, computer-assisted presentation, demonstration, 150 photos of Lebanese dishes. After, patients receive a 10-page illustrated book, a logbook of diabetes control. 2 weeks after the second education session, each participant will receive 5 calls every 15 days in 2 months. During each call, the research assistant will ask the patient about diet, exercise and self-monitoring, medication and foot care and this according to a checklist.
Behavioral: education program

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
adhesion
Time Frame: HbA1c less than 7 % 3 months after the intervention
HbA1c less than 7 % 3 months after the intervention

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Self-management behaviors
Time Frame: improvement of self-management behaviors 3 months after the intervention
self-management behaviors will be measured using a questionnaire of 25 questions, Summary of Diabetes Self-Care Activities Measure SDSCA, which measures five behaviors: diet, exercise, self monitoring blood glucose, medication and foot care (Toobert et al., 2000).
improvement of self-management behaviors 3 months after the intervention

Other Outcome Measures

Other Outcome Measures

For clinical trials, a planned measurement described in the protocol that is used to determine the effect of an intervention/treatment on participants. For observational studies, a measurement or observation that is used to describe patterns of diseases or traits, or associations with exposures, risk factors, or treatment. Types of outcome measures include primary outcome measure and secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
self-efficacy
Time Frame: enhancement of the sense of self-efficacy 3 months after the intervention
Self-efficacy is measured using the Diabetes Management Self-Efficacy Scale (DMSES). This instrument was developed in 1999 by van der Bijl, van Poelgeest-Shortridge-Bagget & Eeltink. This instrument consists of 20 items.
