Summary

This study was planned to examine the effect of education based on learning styles in diabetic individuals who are incompatible with treatment, on treatment compliance and metabolic goals. The study was conducted as a randomized controlled study between January-September 2021 in Dokuz Eylül University Training and Research Hospital Endocrinology and Metabolic Diseases Polyclinic and Internal Medicine Polyclinic.

Detailed description

Among the individuals who applied to the outpatient clinic and were eligible for inclusion in the study, the odd numbers were assigned to the application group, and the even numbers to the control group. The practice group of 30 people and the control group were divided into 3 groups as auditory (n: 10), visual (n: 10) and physical learners (n: 10). Research data; The Individual Identification Form was collected using the Patient Compliance Scale for Type 2 DM Treatment, the BIG 16 Learning Styles Inventory, the Standardized Mini Mental Test (SMMT) and the Metabolic Goal Control Form. The training group was given according to the learning styles. The auditory group in the post-training practice group; calling by phone, to the visual group; By SMS, to the physical group; reminder alerts were made by phone + SMS. Standard training was given to the control group. Metabolic target values of the application and control groups were examined at 3 and 6 months after the training.

BEHAVIORAL	The Effect of Diabetes Education Based on Learning Modality	After controlling the metabolic values of the individuals in the intervention group, the education were carried out according to the learning modality of the people; Visual learners; education booklet, brochure, slides (enriched with pictures and videos), lecture, insulin injector-pen, glucose meters, introduction and demonstration of blood glucose tracking book Auditory learners; education booklet, slides, videos, lecture, question-answer, group work, peer group discussion, experience sharing Tactile learners; education booklet, slides, demonstration, insulin injector-pen, glucose meter doing the application of tools and equipment such as on the model, on himself, on his friend, filling in the blood glucose tracking book. Group-specific diabetes trainings were completed in 2 training sessions. Each training session lasted an average of 1.5 hours The learning modality of the control group were determined and standard group training was provided with the education booklet.
