“…The two groups, IG and CG, were found to be homogeneous in relation to education, as 66.7% and 67.6% of the participants respectively, had incomplete primary education, which enabled the comparison of learning between them. Other studies also found a predominance of this education level in patients with DM (6,19) . The advanced age found in this population did not represent difficulties in learning, a different result than was found in a study that examined the barriers to diabetes education and concluded that older people, among other difficulties, also present limitations in education (9) .…”

“…Other studies that have developed group educational programs for patients with DM, using participatory teaching strategies, such as role plays, relating of experiences and walking, also found an increase in knowledge about the disease (6,19) . A review carried out with 72 studies on DM2 self-management education with follow up periods of between six to 12 months found positive results regarding understanding the disease and concluded that educational interventions that involve the collaboration of the patients may be more effective (21) .…”

“…However, there is a significant deficit of knowledge and skills in the management of the disease in 50% to 80% of individuals with diabetes and glycemic control is achieved by less than half of the patients under treatment with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (DM2) (6)(7) . The great difficulty lies in finding the way to promote self-control or self-care.…”

Original ArticleThe prevention of diabetes and its complications is a challenge for the healthcare team. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of educational action on the disease knowledge of patients with type 2 diabetes. A randomized clinical trial was conducted with 62 patients registered in a service of reference in the treatment of hypertension in 2010. Data were collected through a questionnaire applied to the Intervention (IG) and Control (CG) groups at the beginning and at the end of the study. The IG participated in group educational activities, using problematization methodology. The results showed a significant increase in knowledge about diabetes in the patients of the IG, in all the topics (p<0.05). In the CG, some changes were observed in knowledge, however, these were fewer when compared with the IG. In conclusion, it was possible to increase disease knowledge through the performance of educational activities.

Los datos fueron obtenidos a través de un cuestionario aplicado a los grupos Intervención (GI) y Control (GC), al inicio y al final del estudio. El GI participó de actividades educativas grupales, utilizando la metodología problematizadora.Los resultados muestran un aumento significativo del conocimiento sobre la diabetes en pacientes del GI, en todas las cuestiones (p<0,05). En el GC, algunas alteraciones observadas, fueron mucho menores cuando comparadas al GI. Se concluye que fue posible elevar los conocimientos sobre la enfermedad por medio de realización de actividades educativas. Número del Registro clínico, Identificador primario: RBR-58n26h

“…Regarding education, most participants had incomplete primary education (15) , and in the present study the average time at school was four years. The low education level of the elderly participants should be looked into due to the influence that education may have on aspects such as their understating and following the recommended treatment, nursing instructions, following the diet plan, performing glucose level control and other follow-up exams that may influence health-disease.…”

“…The referred practices are close to the everyday practice of the Family Health Strategy, which has as one of its most important purposes to come closer to service users and their context. At this location, health actions can be performed with a view to promoting self-care an minimizing the risks that could result in complications due to diabetes, also working to improve the quality of life of these individuals (15) .…”

The objective of the present study was to characterize aged pensioners with type 2 diabetes, users of a primary health care service. Participants were 43 individuals selected according to the inclusion criteria. Data was obtained from primary and secondary sources, and analyzed using the SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) software. The average age was 75.3 years. There was little participation in community groups and in physical activities. Seventeen aged individuals used the primary healthcare service. Twelve men were retired and twelve women received pension. The average arterial blood pressure was 130x80 mmHg and the average glucose level was 141 mg/dl. Diet orientations were given mostly by physicians. Further studies are necessary to analyze the cause of the little adherence to the groups and to physical activity. Health teams should have an effective participation in diabetes control and should encourage the family to participate in the care process, as this diseases requires long term management. KEY WORDS RESUMENEl estudio tuvo como objetivo caracterizar ancianos jubilados afectados por diabetes tipo 2, usuarios de un servicio de atención primaria. Contó con 43 sujetos que cumplieron con los criterios de inclusión. Los datos fueron obtenidos en fuentes primarias y secundarias, y analizados en el Programa Estadístico SPSS 15.0. La media de edad fue de 75,3 años. Se verificó escasa participación de los sujetos en grupos comunitarios y en la práctica de actividad física. Diecisiete ancianos utilizan la atención primaria. Doce hombres se jubilaron por tiempo de servicio y 12 mujeres reciben pensión. Los niveles de presión arterial se ubicaron en un promedio de 130 x 80 mmHg y la glucemia media fue de 141 mg/ dl. Orientaciones sobre dieta fueron realizadas en su mayoría por los médicos. Se necesita de nuevos estudios para evaluar los motivos que originan la baja adhesión a grupos y a la práctica de actividad física. Se sugiere participación del equipo de salud en el control de la diabetes y en la motivación para la participación de la familia en el cuidado del anciano, entendiéndose que esta enfermedad demanda tratamiento de largo plazo.

Purpose Approximately 13.3% of Mississippi's adult population lives with diabetes, with a higher prevalence among racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic minorities. However, there is no recorded data regarding the effectiveness of education on foot ulcer prevention provided to patients in the rural clinic network. Future studies to evaluate the effectiveness of foot care education would benefit from a racially-, ethically-, and socioeconomically-diverse education program. Methods This study combined verbal and visual education tools to improve the acquisition of knowledge and measure the effectiveness of knowledge the diabetic type 2 patients retained. A convenience sample of patients (N = 9) completed pre-and post-intervention questionnaires. A convenience sample of the clinic's nurses (N = 4) completed only a pre-intervention questionnaire. Data collection for this project included a 5-min formative one-on-one interview, pre-and post-test approach. The Statistical Package for the Social Science (SPSS) 20.0 was used to analyze the transcripts from the focus group, descriptive statistics from the demographic sheet, the questionnaire, and surveys. Results Qualitative themes were used to evaluate the effectiveness of the program and to capture the participants' perception of their experiences. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the demographic data and the knowledge retained. Variables were calculated using central tendency of mean, median, and mode. Satisfaction score with the education provided yielded a mean of 4.56 and standard deviation (SD) of .527. Conclusions Detailed prospective research is required to determine if implementing education early in the patient's plan of care will improve the patient's overall health care status thus, decreasing facility costs.
