About this study

Official title: Nutritional Therapy and Education With a Multimedia Application in the Metabolic Control of Patients With Type 2 Diabetes. Randomized Clinical Trial

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of nutrition therapy in combination with education in diabetes using a multimedia application for improving indicators of metabolic control in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Read the detailed description

Randomized clinical trial. Subjects with type 2 diabetes from three Family Medicine Units (primary care), with HbA1c >6.5% and <13.0%, without advanced macro or microvascular complications of diabetes.

Two arms: the experimental group with nutrition therapy plus education in diabetes through a multimedia application. The application had seven modules: Introduction, nutrition, physical exercise in diabetes, myths and truths on diabetes, metabolic control parameters, knowing diabetes, complications of diabetes. The control group received only usual nutrition therapy.

A monthly follow up during the first 7 months and then bimonthly, until 21 months of total follow up, with reinforcement in each visit of nutrition and other non-pharmacological therapy, with control on weight and blood pressure. Laboratory studies included HbA1c, lipids profile, creatinine and albuminuria, performed at 7, 14 and 21 months. Results were provided to both the patient and his family physician, so modification in drug treatment if needed, were performed.
