About this study

Official title: The Effect of Education and Motivational Interviews Conducted Through Tele-Nursing on Diabetes Management in Adolescents With Type 1 Diabetes: A Randomized Controlled Trial

The deterioration of glycemic control in adolescents with Type 1 diabetes (T1DM) is a genuine cause for concern. Possible reasons for worsening glycemic control in youth include lack of monitoring, inadequate self-care, psychosocial factors, lack of family support and parental supervision, non-adherence to treatment, pubertal increases in insulin resistance, and insufficient transition from pediatric to adult care. In adolescents with established T1DM who transition to adult-focused care, there is observed disengagement or complete detachment from care. Improving glycemic control during adolescence is a critical stage to enhance and reduce complications associated with T1DM. Adolescents with T1DM require appropriate daily insulin therapy, regular blood sugar monitoring, physical activity, healthy nutrition, education, and support to delay or prevent diabetes-related complications.This study aims to determine the impact of education and motivational interviews conducted through tele-nursing on the management of diabetes in adolescents with Type 1 diabetes.

Read the detailed description

The study will be conducted with a single-center, single-blind, parallel-group, randomized controlled design with a follow-up period of 6 months.The population of the study consists of 141 adolescents aged 13-18 diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes, who are being followed up at the Diabetes Education Unit of Evliya Çelebi Training and Research Hospital, affiliated with Kütahya Health Sciences University in the province of Kütahya, Türkiye. The sample of the study will consist of 96 adolescents, with 48 participants in each group, assuming a 1:1 randomization, based on the reference study. In their research, where motivational interviews were used for adolescents' diabetes management, the reported HbA1c levels for the study group (9.61±2.40) and the control group with routine follow-up (10.76±2.07) at the 6-month follow-up were considered, aiming for an 80% power and a 0.05 margin of error.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Motivational interviewsExperimentalAt the beginning of the study, individual face-to-face diabetes education will be provided for each adolescent in the study group on days corresponding to their routine medical appointments in the diabetes education room. The diabetes education will include the following topics: * What is Diabetes? * Treatment in Diabetes * Insulin Therapy * Nutritional Therapy * Physical Activity/Exercise * Acute Complications of Diabetes * Hypoglycemia * Hyperglycemia * Diabetic Ketoacidosis * Diabetes Management in IIlness The adolescents in the study group will undergo a total of 6 motivational interviews, conducted once a month. Three of these interviews will be face-to-face (at the beginning of the study, at the 3rd month, and at the 6th month), while the remaining three will be conducted remotely using the WhatsApp video call feature (in the 2nd, 4th, and 5th months).
Receives: Other: Education and Motivational Interviews
Routine follow-upNo interventionThe routine follow-up conducted by the diabetes education unit will continue for the study group, and no interventions will be made as part of the research. The study group will undergo a pre-test at the beginning of the study, a follow-up test at the 3rd month, and a post-test at the 6th month as part of the research.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. HbA1c level

    HbA1c level

    Measured: At the beginning of the study, at the 3rd month, and at the 6th month

  2. Diabetes management self-efficacy

    It will be measured using the "Diabetes Management Self-Efficacy Scale in Adolescents with Type 1 Diabetes". The scale consists of a total of 26 items under four sub-dimensions named "medical treatment and nutrition", "glycemic assessment", "talking about your diabetes" and "honesty towards yourself and others".The items in the scale are answered according to the 5-point Likert system as "Definitely yes (1) - Definitely no (5)". Self-efficacy scores are summed and divided by the total number of items to indicate the strength of perceived self-efficacy for different levels of performance on the total of diabetes self-management activities. High scores on the scale represent low self-efficacy. The Cronbach Alpha reliability coefficient of the overall scale is 0.85; for the sub-dimensions are 0.80, 0.75, 0.70 and 0.70, respectively.

    Measured: At the beginning of the study, at the 3rd month, and at the 6th month

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Belief in a healthy lifestyle

    It will be measured using the Healthy Lifestyle Belief Scale for Adolescents. The scale consists of a total of 16 items under three sub-dimensions named "health belief", "physical activity" and "nutrition". The items in the scale are answered according to the 5-point Likert system as "Strongly disagree (1) - Strongly agree (5)". A minimum of 16 and a maximum of 80 points can be obtained from the scale, and increasing scores from the scale indicates that adolescents' belief in a healthy life has increased. The Cronbach Alpha reliability coefficient of the overall scale is 0.90; for the sub-dimensions are 0.84, 0.79 and 0.81, respectively.

    Measured: At the beginning of the study, at the 3rd month, and at the 6th month
