The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of telephone counseling (12 weeks) based on the Information, Motivation, Behavioral Skills (IMB) Model in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) on self-management and HbA1c.
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of telephone counseling based on the Information, Motivation, Behavioral Skills (IMB) Model in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) on self-management and HbA1c. This study was conducted with a randomized controlled trial. This study, between January 2019 and September 2019 were conducted in endocrine clinic. A total of 63 patients (31 interventions, 32 controls) diagnosed with T2DM were included. The intervention group received 45-60 minutes of patient training based on the Information, Motivation and Behavioral Skill Model (IMB). A weekly short reminder message and a two-weekly phone call were made and a total of 12 weeks of follow-up was conducted. As a result, there was a statistically significant difference between pre-test HbA1c, weight and systolic blood pressure (p\<0.05). Also, after three months of follow-up, self-efficacy, self-management and self-management perceptions were significantly higher in the intervention group (p\<0.05).
