About this study

Official title: The Effect of Diabetes Education Given to Children With Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus With Digital Games and Video Animation on Quality of Life

This research will be conducted to evaluate the effect of digital game and video animation-based diabetes education on the quality of life of children with Type 1 Diabetes. HbA1c, diabetes knowledge and Quality of Life Scale in Children with Diabetes (PedsQL 3.0) score will be taken into consideration when evaluating the quality of life of children with type 1 diabetes.

Read the detailed description

This research was conducted to examine the effects of diabetes education given to children with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus with digital game and video animation on quality of life and metabolic control. The study is a single-blind, randomized controlled trial. It was conducted with a total of 55 children with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus, including the experimental (n=27) and control group (n=28). Diabetes education was given to the experimental group with digital games and video animations. Data were collected before the training, at the 3rd and 6th months after the training. Research data were collected with "Descriptive Information Form", "Quality of Life Scale in Children with Diabetes Mellitus" and "Metabolic Control Parameters Follow-up Form". Children in the control group received routine outpatient examination/check-up and diabetes education by a diabetes nurse. Children in the intervention group were given digital game and video animation-based training, as well as routine outpatient examination/check-up and training given by a diabetes nurse.

  • digital game and video animation based diabetes educationBehavioural

    Also called digital game, video animation

    While creating the digital game and video animation, an agreement was made with a software company and this company was responsible for the software and repair of the game. Digital games and video animations cover the basic educational topics of Type 1 diabetes. Expert opinions were received from experts in the field of Child Health and Disease Nursing to ensure the suitability of the content of the educational material. The name of the game site and how to use it were explained to the children in the intervention group by the researcher. In addition, children in the intervention group were given usernames and passwords to log in to the site. Game Sections; What is Diabetes? Medical Nutrition Treatment in Diabetes, Insulin Treatment and Application, Exercise and Physical Activity in Diabetes, Complications of Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus, Diabetes Management at School.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in HbA1c (time frame: Baseline, 3. and 6. months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 13 Nov 2024.
