Methods:This study is a randomized controlled trial with a pre-test and post-test design. The study population consists of Type 2 diabetes patients who applied to the Endocrinology Clinic of Malatya Turgut Özal Medical Center. A total of 70 participants were included in the study. Data were collected face-to-face using a demographic data collection form, a diabetes diagnosis and follow-up form, and the Turkish Multidimensional Diabetes Scale. The data were analyzed using paired t-tests and independent samples t-tests to compare means, counts, and percentages in dependent and independent groups.

结局指标
主要结局
A1C levels
时间窗: up to seven months
Hemoglobin A1C (HbA1C): HbA1C is a blood test that measures the average blood glucose levels over the past two to three months by determining the percentage of glycated hemoglobin in the blood. It is commonly used to diagnose diabetes and assess the effectiveness of diabetes management. An HbA1C level below 5.7% is considered normal, between 5.7% and 6.4% indicates prediabetes, and a level of 6.5% or higher indicates diabetes.
