Brief Summary

The first phase of the research was to develop tools, including scales and multimedia, and the second phase was to carry out multimedia hypoglycemia education intervention measures. An experimental randomized controlled trial with a repeated measures design was conducted in second phase. Participants in the experimental group receiving multimedia hypoglycemia education and participants in the contrast group receiving conventional hypoglycemia education. Structural questionnaires were used for data collection. The study was to investigate the effectiveness of multimedia hypoglycemia education compared to conventional hypoglycemia education on knowledge, self-care behavior, fear of hypoglycemia, social support, quality of life, nursing hours, education satisfaction, and the recurrence rate of hypoglycemic events among patients with type 2 diabetes.

Conditions

Type2diabetes; Hypoglycemia

Keywords

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (5)

• The Score of Hypoglycemia Knowledge

  Hypoglycemia management knowledge scale to collect the score in Knowledge. The scale consists of eight true/false questions, with scores ranging from 0 to 8 points. Higher scores indicate a higher level of knowledge about hypoglycemia in patients.

  Through study completion, an average of 6 months after education.

• The Score of Hypoglycemia Self-care Behavior

  Hypoglycemia self-care behavior scale to collect the score in Behavior. The scale comprises 10 items, each rated on a 5-point Likert scale, with total scores ranging from 10 to 50. Higher scores indicate better self-care behaviors in managing hypoglycemia.

  Through study completion, an average of 6 months after education.

• Nursing Time

  Form Recorded for Health Education Time

  Through study completion, an average of 6 months after education.

• The Score of Education Satisfaction

  Education satisfaction scale to collect the score in education satisfaction. Items were rated on a 5-point Likert scale, with a score range of 1 to 5 points, for a total score range of 5 to 25 points.

  Through study completion, an average of 6 months after education.

• The Recurrence Rate of Hypoglycemic Events

  Questionnaire to assess the rate of hypoglycemic events.

  Through study completion, an average of 6 months.

Secondary Outcomes (3)

• The Score of Fear of Hypoglycemia

  Through study completion, an average of 6 months after education.

• The Score of Social Support

  Through study completion, an average of 6 months after education.

• The Score of Quality of Life

  Through study completion, an average of 6 months after education.
