Study summary

The aim of the study is to investigate whether structured diabetes mellitus education leads to improved blood glucose control in Turkmenistan.

Read the detailed description

Diabetes education is not routinely carried out in Turkmenistan. The aim of the study is to investigate whether patients with type 2 diabetes benefit from an International Diabetes Federation (IDF) based education program. Patients will be randomized into a education group and a control group. The education group will receive 4 - 5 hours of education and the control group will only receive general information about diabetes mellitus. After 6 months, it is checked whether the change in the HbA1c value differs between the two groups. Additinal paremeters such as blood pressure, diabetes knowledge and lipids will also be evaluated (secondary parameters).
