Effects of Nurse-Led Diabetes Education and Telephone Follow-Up in Newly Diagnosed Type 2 Diabetes

Effect of Education and Tele-Follow-Up Program Given to New Type 2 Diabetes Patients on Diabetes Self-Management and Blood Glucose Regulation

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 23 Oct 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This randomized controlled trial evaluated the effects of nurse-led diabetes self-management education supported by telephone follow-up on diabetes knowledge, self-management behaviors, and glycemic control in adults newly diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. Participants were randomly assigned to an intervention group or a control group. The intervention group received structured diabetes self-management education and two follow-up telephone calls at the first and second months to reinforce the education and support self-management. The control group continued to receive routine clinical care without additional structured education or telephone follow-up from the research team during the study. Diabetes knowledge and self-management behaviors were assessed at baseline and at three months. Glycemic outcomes, including HbA1c, fasting blood glucose, and postprandial blood glucose, were assessed at baseline and at the first and third months. The study aimed to determine whether combining structured education with telephone follow-up could improve diabetes self-management and blood glucose control during the early period following a type 2 diabetes diagnosis.
