Abstract:
OBJECTIVES:The study was done experimentally to test the effect of diabetes on body mass index (BMI), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, fasting blood glucose and postprandial blood glucose. METHODS:In the randomization performed, with 80 percent power, 80 people with Type 2 diabetes were found to be suitable for sampling. Personal data forms were filled in by conducting a face-to-face interview with both the experimental and control groups for randomization purposes. In the study, monitoring of BMI, LDL, HDL, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, fasting blood glucose and postprandial blood glucose were used as outcome measures. Parameters were monitored pre-trial and at the 3rd, 6th, 9th, and 12th months. Data from the experimental group were collected online while data belonging to the control group were collected by the researcher from patients medical records in the Endocrinology Outpatient Clinic. Repeated measures analysis of variance (rANOVA) was performed to analyze pre-trial, 3rd, 6th, 9th, and 12th-month data. RESULTS:BMI, LDL, HDL, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, fasting and postprandial blood glucose average of the experimental group at 12 months were proven to be ameliorated compared to the average values at the start of the study (month 0). CONCLUSIONS:The metabolic data of the experimental group, who had web-based diabetes education, significantly improved between the start of the study (month 0) and the 12th month. In this era of technology, the importance of web-based monitoring of diabetes patients was once again proven.
