dc.description.abstract | Diabetes is on the increase globally, especially in African countries. Nigeria
in particular has a high prevalence of diabetes type 2. There is evidence
that improved type 2 diabetes outcomes are related to self-management and
improved health education. The purpose of the research was to pretest whether
a structured multidisciplinary patient centred self-management education
programme for type 2 diabetes would improve selected primary and secondary
diabetes outcome measures. The setting is diabetes outpatient clinics in one
tertiary and one secondary health facility in Edo State, Nigeria. The study
design is quasi-experimental, a two group before and after study. Two groups
of participants (n=28) were selected using quota sampling from alternate day
clinic attendances, 15 for the intervention group and 13 for the control group.
A multidisciplinary patient centred diabetes self-management education
programme was developed and implemented over 5 weeks in October 2014. | en_US |
