Evaluation of two therapeutic patient education programs for prevention of diabetic foot ulcers

Abstract: Objectives: The purpose of this study is to evaluate and compare the effects of two education programs on patients’ understanding of the disease, self-efficacy, locus of control, and application of prevention behaviors for foot ulcer. Methods: In four centers that manage patients with diabetes and grade 2 or 3 neuropathy, the first arm of patients (G1 = 53) participated in a “standard” program usually managed in each center, and those in the second arm (G2 = 56) in a “new” program. The patients completed four … Show more

“…Twenty-six 2348 studies were included in this systematic review and 9 studies were included in this meta-analysis to synthesize randomized controlled trials examining the effect of foot care education on knowledge, self-efficacy and behavior in patients with diabetes, and while positive changes were found in the knowledge levels and behaviors of patients after the education, no significant changes were observed in self-efficacy. There are studies in the literature on diabetic foot management and education but no evidence-based studies, in which knowledge, self-efficacy, and behavior regarding diabetic foot care were examined together, to the best of our knowledge.…”

“…For the enhancement of initial adherence, and by extension of continued adherence, in wearing appropriate footwear among people with or at risk for DFU, health care professionals could pay more attention to the education of patients with active foot ulcers, applying intensive educational interventions. 70,71 Additionally, they could provide patients with multiple price options concerning their footwear (e.g. by suggesting effective and affordable products) or they could participate, on the condition of appropriate application of relevant technology in hospitals/clinics, in the design/manufacturing process of medical devices, such as therapeutic/preventive footwear, thereby reducing the final cost.…”

“…Από τη συστηματική ανασκόπηση και μετα-ανάλυση των Adiewere et al 70 σχετικά με την εκπαίδευση ασθενούς (patient education) στην πρόληψη και τη μείωση της επίπτωσης ή επανεμφάνισης των διαβητικών εξελκώσεων, βρέθηκε ότι η εντατική, σε αντίθεση με τη βραχείας διάρκειας, εκπαιδευτική παρέμβαση συνδέονταν με μείωση της επίπτωσης των ακρωτηριασμών (RR 0.37, 95% CI 0.14-1.01, P=.05). Στα ίδια πλαίσια της αποτελεσματικότητας της μεγιστοποίησης της έντασης της εκπαίδευσης των ασθενών είναι και τα ευρήματα της πρόσφατης μελέτης των Marchand et al, 71 στην οποία οι ασθενείς που ανέφεραν ότι στη φροντίδα τους συμμετέχουν συγγενείς είχαν σημαντικά υψηλότερο μέσο σκορ στις προληπτικές συμπεριφορές (P<.01).…”
