“…Indeed, inadequate health literacy has been shown to mediate the relationship between lower education level and glycaemic control; thus, the inadequate health literacy possessed by people with lower education level might yield problems with written and oral forms of communication in the course of diabetes education. In order for diabetes education to benefit individuals' and their significant others' abilities to manage diabetes, it must be organized and delivered in an understandable way that is applicable to the daily life of the population served, as has been demonstrated in a qualitative study …”

Diabetes education is a critical element of care for people with diabetes. However, the associations between diabetes education and self-care or health outcomes have not been clearly demonstrated at a national level. The aims of this study were to examine the associations of attendance of diabetes education classes with health behaviours and glycaemic control, and to understand whether these associations were moderated by level of educational attainment. Data were analysed for 456 adults from the 2012 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey V, collected from January 2010 to December 2012. No significant differences were observed between patients who had attended diabetes education classes and those who had never attended for factors such as smoking, drinking, exercise, nutrition therapy or glycaemic control. There was a significant interaction effect between receiving diabetes education and level of educational attainment on obtaining optimal glycaemic control. Attending diabetes education was positively associated with optimal glycaemic control among patients with more than a high school education but was negatively associated with it among those with less than middle school education. Diabetes education programmes need to be tailored to the needs and cognitive capacities of the target population.

“…A multitude of social, cultural, and economic factors influence DSM, and it is important for the health care provider to identify these so as to best support the patient in reaching their goals 66. The use of some technologies may raise concerns in users about lack of personal contact when using remote technology, and it may be perceived as less applicable to those with a disability, or social disadvantage or culturally diverse groups 67.…”

Diabetes is a chronic, complex condition requiring sound knowledge and self-management skills to optimize glycemic control and health outcomes. Dietary intake and physical activity are key diabetes self-management (DSM) behaviors that require tailored education and support. Electronic health (eHealth) technologies have a demonstrated potential for assisting individuals with DSM behaviors. This review provides examples of technologies used to support nutrition and physical activity behaviors in the context of DSM. Technologies covered include those widely used for DSM, such as web-based programs and mobile phone and smartphone applications. In addition, examples of novel tools such as virtual and augmented reality, video games, computer vision for dietary carbohydrate monitoring, and wearable devices are provided. The challenges to, and facilitators for, the use of eHealth technologies in DSM are discussed. Strategies to support the implementation of eHealth technologies within practice and suggestions for future research to enhance nutrition and physical activity behaviors as a part of broader DSM are provided.

“…(3) Since these obstacles can explain the fact that a considerable number of individuals are unable to follow a meal plan, do not practice phsical activity, and do not adhere to medication treatment, educational interventions addressing these issues are necessary in the planning of interventions. (3,19) The selection of the web e-Surv platform proved to be effective to improve and facilitate the methods of data collection and storage for the content validation and cultural adaptation stages of the Compasso protocol. (20) e-Surv is a free online tool, with ease of accessibility and use, whose applicability for data collection in the health area context is well described in the literature.…”

Objective: To develop, validate the content and conduct the cultural adaptation of the Compasso protocol for promoting adherence to self-care practices in diabetes via telephone intervention. Methods: Methodological research for tool development, following three stages: protocol development; content validation; and cultural adaptation. Fourteen professionals affiliated to the fields of healthcare, applied linguistics and statistics participated in the stages of development and content validation, while 341 individuals with diabetes mellitus took part in the adaptation stage. Data for validation and adaptation were collected through the web platform e-Surv and analyzed in the R environment. Results: The Compasso protocol includes the following domains: behavioral and psychosocial aspects, support network, barriers, and self-care practices. The assessment of the protocol presented good agreement between the evaluators, with a mean CVI 0.96. Conclusion: The content of the Compasso protocol was considered to be validated and culturally adequate to promote adherence to the practices of diabetes self-care via telephone intervention. ResumoObjetivo: Realizar a construção, validação de conteúdo e adequação cultural do protocolo Compasso para promover a adesão às práticas de autocuidado em diabetes via intervenção telefônica. Métodos: Pesquisa metodológica de elaboração de instrumentos abrangendo as etapas: construção do protocolo; validação de conteúdo; adequação cultural. Participaram das fases de construção e validação um total de 14 profissionais das áreas da Saúde, Linguística e Estatística, e, da fase de adequação, 341 usuários com diabetes mellitus. Os dados para validação e adequação foram coletados através da plataforma web e-Surv e analisados no ambiente R. Resultados: O protocolo Compasso aborda os seguintes domínios: aspectos comportamental e psicossocial, rede de apoio, barreiras e práticas do autocuidado. A avaliação do protocolo apresentou boa concordância entre os avaliadores, com IVC médio de 0,96. Conclusão: Considera-se validado o conteúdo do protocolo Compasso e adequado culturalmente para promover a adesão às práticas de autocuidado em diabetes via intervenção telefônica.
