The Effect of Web-Based and Face-to-Face Education Based on the Health Promotion Model on Foot Care Behavior in Individuals With Type 2 Diabetes

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Diabetic foot is a complication that develops difficult-to-heal foot wounds, reduces the quality of life of individuals with diabetes, causes loss of productivity, and causes economic burden due to the repetition of the problem and the expenditures made for treatment. Diabetic foot is the most common complication requiring hospitalization and is the most common cause of non-traumatic amputations. However, this complication can be prevented with regular foot examinations, patient education and daily foot care. For this reason, diabetic foot education should be given to all diabetic patients and they should be encouraged to participate in their self-care. However, educating patients once does not provide enough knowledge to manage diabetes throughout life. As the rate of individuals using web-based information increases, it is possible to reach large masses. With web-based training, information obtained from current sources is presented to patients on a single web page, patients can access training regardless of place or time, and continuity in training is ensured. The aim of this randomized controlled experimental study is to determine the effect of web-based and face-to-face education based on the health promotion model on diabetic foot knowledge and foot care behavior in individuals with diabetes.
