“…Patients' knowledge and skills are required for communicating with their physicians and participating in making medical decisions [20]. Also, several studies have presented the effect of diabetes knowledge on self-care behaviors and clinical outcomes including drug therapy, diet, physical activity, blood glucose monitoring, and HbA1c level in T2DM [21][22][23]. Little is known about the factor of relationship between Diabetes Knowledge (DK) among Thai patients with T2DM, because, diabetes knowledge may also be used to evaluate interventions to reduce poor self-care or improve the achievement of clinical targets, in T2DM patients, in turn, potentially reducing the incidence of, and mortality from, T2DM complications.…”

Background: T2DM is a chronic illness associated with numerous comorbidities and leads to chronic complications, resulting in high morbidity and mortality, rising health care costs. However, patients with this disease, through self-care, can significantly mitigate the risk, or delay the onset of these T2DM complications Objective: To investigate factors along with Diabetes Knowledge Method: A cross-sectional study was carried out among T2DM patients living in both rural and urban areas from the Central and Northeastern regions of Thailand were recruited from outpatient diabetes clinics of both community and university hospitals in both the Khon Kaen and Bangkok provinces of Thailand. Patients were sampled using a stratified sampling design where strata were based on locality (Province) - hospital size combinations. Firstly, we had translated all questionnaires from English to the local language then again back translated simultaneously. Then, the third step was to perform psychometric testing of the DK instrument Lastly, binary logistics mixed effect regression was used to investigate the clustering effect of the participant’s characteristic on this study. Results: After adjust for covariates derivate that age, KK and smaller hospitals, higher education, monthly income, underweight and overweight, DM treatment, and smoking nor alcohol where all found to be associated with various DK Conclusion: In future DK measurement is likely to provide valuable insights in to the epidemiology of diabetes self-management and may also be used to evaluate interventions to reduce poor self-care in T2DM patients, in turn, politically reducing the incidence of, and mortality from, type 2 diabetes mellitus complications.

Introduction: Ethnic minority elderly (EME) people are recognized as a vulnerable group who have higher prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) than the majority of the population. The aim of this study was to explore the feasibility, acceptability, and effect of the HOME model (Home intervention; Online monitoring; Multidisciplinary approach; and Equity and education) specifically for enhancing self-management activities, glycemic control, and satisfaction of EME with T2DM in rural areas in Thailand. Methods: In this quasi-experimental study, a single group used a pre-test and post-test, which were conducted as a pilot study to examine the effect of the HOME model. Results: Overall, 23 dyads of EME with T2DM and their family caregivers completed the 12-week intervention. They reported that the HOME model was helpful and motivating, and they reported satisfaction with the service provided. EME with T2DM showed significant reduction of blood glucose level, and significant improvement in self-management activities, happiness, and satisfaction compared with baseline. Family caregivers had also significant improvements in happiness and reported satisfaction with the HOME model. Conclusion: The primary evidence suggested that the HOME model was acceptable and feasible for EME with T2DM and their families in rural Thailand.

BackgroundAlthough the national-based policy implemented an initiative program to offer diabetes care management in Thailand, there are limited time trends of evidence to gauge whether the quality of diabetes care in primary care practice is improving. As such, we aimed to identify temporal trends in the quality of diabetes care performance among type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients in primary care practice.MethodsUsing assembled patient-level data from a suburban community in northern Thailand, this serial retrospective cross-sectional analytical study obtained adult T2DM patients from nine consecutive fiscal years 2013/14 (n = 976) to 2021/22 (n = 1,242). Based on international and national guidelines recommended, nine quality indicators were examined, namely, smoking cessation, hemoglobin A1c monitoring, foot and eye examinations, albuminuria testing, statin prescription, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor/angiotensin II receptor blocker (ACEI/ARB) prescription for chronic kidney disease (CKD)/albuminuria, and blood pressure and glycemic control. Rates and time trends achieved in each quality indicator performance were estimated. Differences in the rates of patients who met each quality indicator across reimbursement schemes were explored.ResultsFrom 2013/14 to 2021/22, all quality indicators have increased over time (p for trend <0.05) except for smoking cessation, which remained steady. In 2021/22, only three out of nine quality indicators (i.e., smoking cessation, annual HbA1c monitoring, and annual foot examination) were successfully met at 70% or greater. Differences in quality indicators of diabetes performance were observed, particularly those under the Civil Servant Medical Benefit Scheme compared with other health insurance counterparts. For overall time trends analysis (compared with 2013/14), significant relative changes in the fiscal year 2021/22 were found in the annual foot examination (adjusted 12.1% increase; p = 0.048), annual albuminuria testing (adjusted 12.1% increase; p = 0.048), and ACEI/ARB prescription for persons with CKD or albuminuria (adjusted 22.2% increase; p = 0.025).ConclusionAmong adult T2DM patients from 2013/14 to 2021/22, overall quality indicators for diabetes performance have substantially improved over time. However, health inequity regarding diabetes care performance was found across different reimbursement schemes. Sustainable policy implementation and innovative strategies to narrow health inequity are warranted to optimize diabetes care in primary care practice.
