Background: Changing to an intervention method in health education is a very challenging process and requires various transformations. Complications from the increasingly complicated diagnosis of type 2 diabetes cause diabetic patients to experience a deterioration in aspects of diabetic self-efficacy management (DSEM), diabetic self-care behavior management (DSCM) in their quality of life (QoL). Unsuitable environmental factors, increased amputation rates, and lack of information resources of choice for patients, researchers have innovated in type 2 diabetic health education through web-based Diabetic-N-Care education as a moderator to DSEM, DSCM, and QoL and as a method, an alternative to face to face education in Hospital Sultanah Nur Zahirah Kuala Terengganu.Objective: This study aims to identify the effects of web-based educational programs on diabetic self-efficacy management (DSEM), diabetic self-care behavior management (DSCM) in quality of life (QoL) among type 2 diabetes patients in public hospitals.Method: This study used a quantitative quasi-experimental design of pre-test and post-test. Diabetic-N-Care program was conducted at Orthopedic Clinic Hospital Sultanah Nur Zahirah Kuala Terengganu for 34 days, where purposive sampling involved type 2 diabetic patients who were divided into intervention groups (IG) (n = 60) and control group (CG) (n = 60). Respondents are the same individual for each phase of measurement.Results: Data analysis method the general linear model repeated measures ANOVA, Split-plot ANOVA (SPANOVA) and paired t-test was conducted on 120 patients to see the effect of using Diabetic-N-Care on IG. The results of Split - plot ANOVA analysis showed a significant overall effect of DSEM, DSCM, and QoL (p = 0.000) on IG. Meanwhile, paired t-test analysis there was a significant mean difference in DSEM, DSCM, and QoL at pre-test and post-test (p = 0.000) to IG compared to CG.Conclusion: Web-based health education can have an impact on DSEM, DSCM in the QoL of type 2 diabetic patients were greater than before confidence, change the old behavior to new behavior to improve quality of life in the long term planning. Therefore, this study concludes that web-based methods such as Diabetic-N-Care need to be widely adapted in current health education methods.
Background: Currently, the prevalence of diabetes mellitus is a serious concern on a global scale. Most type 2 diabetes cases are the result of many factors that also lead to metabolic problems with a wide range of consequences. Objective: This study aims to identify the effects of web-based educational programs on diabetic self-efficacy management (DSEM) and diabetic self-care behavior management (DSCM) in quality of life (QoL) among type 2 diabetes patients in public hospitals. Method: This study used a quantitative quasi-experimental design with a pre-test and post-test. The Diabetic-N-Care program was conducted at Orthopedic Clinic Hospital Sultanah Nur Zahirah Kuala Terengganu for 34 days, where purposive sampling involved type 2 diabetic patients who were divided into intervention groups (IG) (n = 60) and control groups (CG) (n = 60). Respondents are the same individuals for each phase of measurement. Results: The general linear model repeated measures ANOVA, split-plot ANOVA (SPANOVA), and paired t-test were conducted on 120 patients to see the effect of using Diabetic-N-Care on IG. The results of the split- plot ANOVA analysis showed a significant overall effect of DSEM, DSCM, and QoL (p = 0.000) on IG. Meanwhile, in paired t-test analysis, there was a significant mean difference in DSEM, DSCM, and QoL at pre-test and post-test (p = 0.000) for IG compared to CG. Conclusion: Web-based health education can have an impact on DSEM and DSCM in the QoL of type 2 diabetic patients where there is greater confidence to change the old behavior to a new behavior to improve quality of life in the long term. Therefore, this study concludes that web-based methods such as Diabetic-N-Care need to be widely adapted into current health education methods.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
