About this study

Official title: Evaluation of the Efficiency of Two Different Teaching Methods in Safe Subcutaneous Injection Skills in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Patients

Subject: Subcutaneous (SC) insulin injection is frequently used in the treatment of Type 2 Diabetes patients. Complications such as pain, ecchymosis, hematoma, lipoatrophy and lipohypertrophy are frequently observed after SC injections. These complications that develop due to incorrect injection application negatively affect the use of injection application areas, change body image and negatively affect drug absorption. In order to reduce and prevent complications related to SC insulin injection, it is very important to gain the skill of safe SC insulin injection. It is stated that there are a limited number of studies on which of the teaching methods used in sick individuals are effective. In the national and international literature, no study has been found evaluating the effect of SC injection skill teaching based on video-supported training and low-fidelity simulation model applications on disease management in individuals diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. In this regard, the research was planned as an experimental design in order to examine the effectiveness of video-supported training and low-fidelity simulation model-based teaching in gaining safe insulin injection skills via SC. For this purpose; It is aimed to evaluate the effect of two different skill teaching methods on the patient's SC injection ability, complication management and blood glucose level.

Purpose: This research was planned as an experimental design to examine the effectiveness of two different teaching methods (video-supported training and low-fidelity simulation model) in gaining safe insulin injection skills via the Subcutaneous (SC) route.

Design: A pretest-posttest two-group, quasi-experimental design will be used in the study.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. subcutaneous injection skills

    The "subcutaneous injection checklist" will be used to measure patients' ability to administer subcutaneous injection.

    Measured: After 1 week, After 1 month, After 3 months

  2. ecchymosis

    "Opsite-Flexigrid Measurement Tool" will be used to measure ecchymosis that occur after subcutaneous injection.

    Measured: After 1 week, After 1 month, After 3 months

  3. hematoma

    Opsite-Flexigrid Measurement Tool" will be used to measure hematoma that occur after subcutaneous injection.

    Measured: After 1 week, After 1 month, After 3 months

  4. lipoarthrrophy

    Lipoatrrophy occurring after subcutaneous insulin injection will be determined by inspection and palpation.

    Measured: After 1 week, After 1 month, After 3 months

  5. lipohypertrophy

    lipohypertrophy occurring after subcutaneous insulin injection will be determined by inspection and palpation.

    Measured: After 1 week, After 1 month, After 3 months

  6. pain

    Pain occurring after subcutaneous injection will be measured with "visual analog scale". These values will be written into the chart.

    Measured: during the first week, 1st month and the last week before the 3rd month

  7. blood glucose level

    Blood glucose values will be measured by patients with a blood glucose meter. These values will be written into the chart.

    Measured: during the first week, 1st month and the last week before the 3rd month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing video-assisted training group and low fidelity simulation model group in people with Complication of Injection, run by Kocaeli Sağlık ve Teknoloji Üniversitesi.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Apr 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Azzet YÜKSEL (+905549973894, azzet.yuksel@kocaelisaglik.edu.tr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

subcutaneous injection skills (time frame: After 1 week, After 1 month, After 3 months). The study lists 7 primary outcomes in all. 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 29 Apr 2024.
