Brief Summary

The quality of life (QoL) of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a measure of the successful outcomes of therapy. The program of management of chronic diseases "Program Pengelolaan Penyakit Kronis" (Prolanis) among patients with hypertension and T2DM is a new strategy of the Badan Penyelenggara Jaminan Sosial (BPJS), which is the Indonesian national health insurance system. The impact of pharmacist counseling interventions on health-related QoL (HRQoL) was analyzed in Prolanis T2DM patients.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Measurement of Quality of Life (QoL) using the Euro Quality of Life 5 Dimension 5 Level (EQ-5D-5L) questionnaire

    The QoL of Prolanis T2DM patients was measured using the Euro Quality of Life 5 Dimension 5 Level (EQ-5D-5L) questionnaire. The EQ-5D-5L questionnaire consists of two parts: a descriptive system and a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). The descriptive system describes the health state and consists of five dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. Patients who reported problems were then categorized into two categories, a "has no problem" category (health state code of 1) and "has problem" category (health state code of 2-5) for each level of each dimension. The second part of the EQ-5D-5L questionnaire is the EQ-VAS, which is a thermometer-like scale (ranging from 0 to 100) that reflects the patient's health in general. EQ-VAS represents the patient perspective, where zero indicates the worst imaginable health state and 100 reflects the best imaginable health state.

Study Arms (2)

Intervention group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The intervention group received Pharmacist counseling for 15 minutes include giving standard medicine information service and explaining the validated pharmacist counseling module which contained the T2DM causes and symptoms, the reasons for the importance of therapy, the non-pharmacological and pharmacological therapies available (drug names, strengths, indications, rules of use, side effects, interactions, and storage), the purpose of controlling blood sugar levels, medications that need to be avoided, and guidelines for missed dose.

Behavioral: Pharmacist Counseling Intervention

Control group

NO INTERVENTION

The control group received standard medicine information services by Pharmacists.

Interventions

We used the counseling module (in the form of a guide book) for pharmacist-based counseling that had been validated regarding constructive content by an endocrinologist and a pharmacist expert in diabetes drug counseling. The module explained the T2DM causes and symptoms, the reasons for the importance of therapy, the non-pharmacological and pharmacological therapies available (drug names, strengths, indications, rules of use, side effects, interactions, and storage), the purpose of controlling blood sugar levels, medications that need to be avoided, and guidelines for missed doses. The pharmacists should explain all the content within the module in 15 minutes to each patient of the intervention group each month for 6 months. As an ethical consideration, the control group patients were given the same explanation module through pharmacist counseling after the study finished.

Masking Details
Cluster randomization by institution was used in this study. The four Puskesmas were randomized by asking the person in charge of the Prolanis at these centers to choose a closed envelope containing an identifier indicating the control group or the intervention group. Two Puskesmas were used as the control group and the remaining two were used as the intervention group.

Intervention Model
PARALLEL
Model Details: All patients provided written informed consent before participating in the study. The participants were administered the EQ-5D-5L questionnaire in the first month of the study, as a pre-test procedure. The patients in the control group participated in the standard Prolanis T2DM program for 6 months and were asked to fill out the questionnaire again at the 6-month time point, as a post-test procedure. The patients in the intervention group participated in the standard Prolanis T2DM program and received a 15 min face-to-face counseling session from a pharmacist once a month for 6 months. At the 6-month time point, subjects in the intervention group were asked to fill out the EQ-5D-5L questionnaire again, as a post-test procedure. Patients in the control group also received a 15 min face-to-face counseling session from a pharmacist once a month for 6 months after the intervention study was completed.
