The study was designed as a randomized controlled experimental study in order to compare the fasting blood glucose values measured by puncturing the fingertips and using the intravenous route of patients diagnosed with diabetes mellitus, and to determine the effect on patient satisfaction. The blood glucose measurement via the intravenous catheter has an effect on increasing the comfort of the patient compared to the fingertip measurement. It is thought that information can be provided to increase patient satisfaction.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: experimental group
Patients whose blood glucose is measured intravenously and from the fingertip
A satisfaction survey will be conducted after these patients have previously examined their blood glucose via intravenous route, then fingertip blood glucose will be measured and a satisfaction survey will be applied.
No Intervention: control group
Patients with fingertip blood glucose measurement
