@#<p style="text-align: justify;">The DSME program is aimed to educate adolescents about diabetes mellitus: disease process, survival skills, exercise management, drug management, diet management, prevent acute and chronic complications and optimize quality of life. This study utilized the quasi experimental pre and post-test design involving 15 adolescent patients with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus. The DSME materials were composed of five modules that included topics in diabetes awareness, survival skills, exercise, drug and diet management. Knowledge, Fasting Blood Sugar (FBS), Random Blood Sugar (RBS) and waist and hip ratio (WHR) were tested. The Intervention phase was implemented in three months where each module was completed by patients in two weeks. Pre and post-test examinations were done after each module. Participants have very satisfactory knowledge in diabetes awareness, survival skills, exercise, drug management before and after the DSME program. However, participants knowledge in diet management were unsatisfactory before and after the DSME program. FBS were high but RBS levels and WHR were in normal levels before, during and after the DSME program. Knowledge scores were significantly different before and after the implementation of all the modules (Module 1 to Module 5) to the participants. RBS results were significantly different after the implementation of the Module 1- DM awareness and Module 5- diet management. However, no significant differences were obtained in the RBS results of the participants after the implementation of Module 2, 3, 4, and 5. No significant differences were also obtained in the WHR parameters of the participants in each of the implementation of DSME. No significant differences in the FBS results were obtained after the implementation of the DSME modules. The module type DSME is effective in increasing knowledge of the adolescent patients in diabetes and its management. The content of the diet management module needs to be strengthened and be tested again for its effectiveness in increasing knowledge of adolescent patients.</p>

@#This study aimed to determine the level of knowledge and skills of the barangay health workers (BHW) about diabetes management. A descriptive correlational design that included 121 BHWs in Bustos, Bulacan was utilized in the study. A test and skill demonstration checklist was utilized to determine the knowledge and skills of BHWs about diabetes management. Categorical variables such as the respondents' profile were described using frequencies and percentages. Continuous variables such as level of knowledge and skills were summarized using central tendency measures (mean) with standard deviation. Pearson correlation test for association was used to test for relationship between level of knowledge and skills. Pearson Chi square was used to test association between demographic variables and level of knowledge and skills. Ap value of <0.05 was considered significant in the analysis of the results. Results showed that the overall level of knowledge of the BHWs was satisfactory but varied in many aspects of diabetes management. The BHWs level of knowledge in determining signs and symptoms and diagnosis of diabetes was high but low in determining types of diabetes mellitus. The level of skills of the BHWs was high in blood pressure measurement but low in blood glucose monitoring. BHWs have varied knowledge and skills in diabetes care management. There is a need to train the BHWs further to develop their knowledge and skills. The nurse diabetes educators must provide diabetes education program for BHWs that are focused on competencies to deliver safe and appropriate health teaching activities utilizing the basic concepts and principles of diabetes management

BACKGROUND: A number of studies investigated the general practitioners' and family physicians' knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) on diabetes. However, studies on internists' KAP on diabetes management are limited. This study aimed to investigate the Iranian internists' KAP on diabetes mellitus and its management. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted on a random sample of internists who participated in the 26th annual congress of internists in Tehran, Iran. The level of KAP and affecting factor was evaluated by a validated instrument. RESULTS: One-hundred internists with the mean age of 41.98±9.26 years were evaluated. Totally, the physicians possessed 66.29%±19.5%, 50.44%±19.39%, and 64.5%±15.3% of the scores in KAP, respectively. The time since graduation in general medicine had significant negative correlation with their knowledge and practice, that was along with the subjects' age (P0.05). Attitude, and practice scores were significantly higher in physicians who were working at diabetes clinic (P<0.05), and attitude was more in physicians working at teaching hospitals compared to those who were not working (57.82 vs. 47.72, P=0.020). CONCLUSION: According to our results, subjects' age and time since graduation in general medicine and specialty were inversely correlated by knowledge and practice. So internists with older age seems to be in priority for educational programs. And holding CME programs in current forms seems to be not suitable to increase the KAP regarding diabetes.

Antecedentes: el International Diabetes Management Practice Study es un estudio mundial, observacional, que tiene como propósito determinar el estándar de tratamiento de los pacientes con diabetes mellitus en las diferentes regiones del mundo, y la adherencia a las guías internacionales con respecto al abordaje y manejo de estos pacientes. A nivel mundial, 15016 pacientes con diabetes tipo 2 participaron en el estudio, previamente publicado por Ringborg et al. en la revista International Journal of Clinical Practice, en 2009. La siguiente publicación corresponde a la segunda etapa del estudio que analizó a los pacientes participantes de Costa Rica. Resultados: en Costa Rica se valoró 49 pacientes de la consulta privada de 5 médicos endocrinólogos, en un periodo que comprendió del 22 de marzo al 24 de abril de 2007. El valor promedio de la glicemia en ayunas para los pacientes fue de 140,45mg/dL ± 56,3. Con respecto al control glicémico, el estudio encontró que el 60% de los participantes presentó una HbA1c > 7%, y el 17,5% de los pacientes presentó HbA1c mayor al 9%. Todos los pacientes valorados estaban recibiendo algún tipo de terapia farmacológica: el 63,6% de los pacientes con hipoglicemiantes orales, y el 45,5% de los pacientes tratados con insulina alcanzó la meta de HbA1c < 7%. Solo el 22,2% de los pacientes tratados con la combinación de hipoglicemiantes orales más insulina, llegó a la meta. Conclusión: el estudio muestra como la mayoría de los pacientes (60%) no logra alcanzar la meta de un adecuado control glicémico (HbA1c < 7%), aunque se ha establecido que un adecuado control glicémico reduce la incidencia de complicaciones micro y macrovasculares. Debe haber un mayor énfasis en la atención intensiva para mejorar el manejo de los pacientes con diabetes tipo 2 en Costa Rica.
Background: The International Diabetes Management Practice Study was a worldwide observational study with the aim to determine the standard of care of diabetic patients in different regions around the world and the adherence to the international guidelines regarding diabetic care and management. Around the world 15,016 patients with type 2 diabetes were enrolled in this study, published previously by Ringborg et al, in the International Journal of Clinical Practice in 2009. The following study corresponds to the sub study which analyzed the patients who participated in Costa Rica. Results: In Costa Rica 49 type 2 diabetic patients were recruited from the private practice of 5 endocrinologists from March 22nd to April 24th, 2007. The mean fasting blood sugar value of the patients studied was of 140.45mg/dL ± 56.3. With respect to glycemic control, the study showed that 60% of patients had an HbA1c > 7% and 17.5% of them had a value greater than 9%. All the patients who were evaluated had some type of pharmacologic agent in their therapeutic regimen. Around sixty-three percent (63.6%) of the patients who were treated with oral antidiabetic agents and 45.5% with insulin alone reached the target of an HbA1c < 7%, respectively. To a lesser extent (22.2%) patients who were treated with both types of medications reached that goal. Conclusion: In this study the majority of patients (60%), did not meet criteria for an adequate glycemic control (HbA1c < 7%) despite the broad scientific evidence available which demonstrates that an adequate glycemic control effectively reduces micro and macrovascular complications. More emphasis needs to be added to improve treatment for patients with type 2 diabetes in Costa Rica.

Diabetes mellitus is an increasing global health problem. Guidelines for diabetic care recommend management of lifestyle and risk factors (glucose, blood pressure, and cholesterol), as well as regular screening for complications associated with treatment of the conditions related to diabetes. The prevalence of diabetes increased from 8.6% to 11.0% from 2001 to 2013. According to the diabetes fact sheet 2015, the proportion of patients with diabetes treated with antihypertensive medications increased from 56.0% to 62.5% from 2006 to 2013, and 49.5% of those with diabetes were being treated with lipid-lowering medications in 2013, a 1.8-fold increase since 2006. According to the 2014 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey data, 45.6% of patients with diabetes achieved a hemoglobin A1c level of < 7.0%, 72.8% achieved a blood pressure of < 140/85 mmHg, and 58.0% achieved a low density lipoprotein cholesterol level of < 100 mg/dL. Only 19.7% of patients with diabetes had good control of all three of these parameters. Despite improvements in health promotion efforts, the rates of adherence to medication and risk-factor control are low. Therefore, a systematic approach to managing diabetes, including self-management education, is needed to prevent or delay complications. The government needs to establish a long-term policy to address the growing burden of diabetes.

It also proposed to suggest the phased evaluation indicators. In this study, 48 adults registered in the hypertension and diabetes management program were selected from the Gangneung public health center. The clinic-specific programs were led by dental hygienists and operated for visitors twice every two weeks. The programs were designed based on the logical model, and indicators for evaluating the structure, process, and outcome were presented and applied to the input, process, output, and outcome. The evaluation indices consisted of quantitative and qualitative indicators, and the planning and operation, goal achievement, and effect of each program were assessed. The process evaluations were assessed by the appropriateness of the managers and the operating fidelity of the programs. Indicators for evaluating the outcomes were gingival bleeding, oral health knowledge, oral health awareness, and the satisfaction of the participant and the manager. The clinic-specific programs resulted in positive changes in the evaluated outcomes. The integrated health management of visitors to the hypertension and diabetes management program is important as the general and oral health has common risk factors. Furthermore, long-term operation and continuous monitoring of oral health programs are necessary to evaluate the common factors in chronic disease management.

The prevalence of diabetes has increased consistently throughout recent decades. Among patients, 70.7% are aware of their disease, and 63% receive treatment. However, less than 20% of those treated maintain their blood sugar level (glycosylated hemoglobin > 6.5%), indicating that most diabetic patients do not receive appropriate treatment. Diabetes management requires consistent treatment and self-management, but elderly patients who lack social or family support and patients from socially disadvantaged classes tend to have less access to medical care and often stop treatment due to economic hardship. While public health centers, Diabetes registration and management center and home nursing services are available to support vulnerable diabetic patients, many are still neglected by our health care system. To improve patient quality of life, a free service providing information and consistent care based on community should be established. Also, when diabetic education team, patients, and their family's, community organizations connection is firmly formation, in the community can be used to effectively manage diabetes.

BACKGROUND: Diabetes education, also known as diabetes self-management training or diabetes selfmanagement education, is effective in helping patients with diabetes control their illness and maximize their health. However, there is no established institutional strategy in South Korea because economic evaluations of the benefits and costs of diabetes education have been limited. The purpose of this study is two-fold: (1) describe economic evaluation methodologies, one of the tools available to help choose wisely from a range of alternatives and implement effective resources; and (2) suggest applications of economic evaluation in terms of diabetes education. METHODS: There are three types of commonly used economic evaluations in diabetes education: cost benefit analysis, cost effective analysis, and cost utility analysis. RESULTS: The understanding of the economic value of diabetes education for people with diabetes has a number of uses: to provide empirical evidence to influence policy-making in diabetes education, to offer proof of the benefits of diabetes self-management, to improve awareness of the importance and necessity of diabetes education, to reduce costs of diabetes management, and to enhance healthcare quality. CONCLUSION: Further research is needed to evaluate the economic benefits and costs associated with diabetes education.
