The impact of diabetes education on patients’ knowledge and self-management
糖尿病教育对提高患者知识水平、自我管理的影响

摘要

目的 探讨糖尿病教育对提高患者知识水平、自我管理的影响。方法 选取我院2025年5月-2026年5月收治的62例糖尿病患者作为研究对象，通过随机数字表法分为对照组（n=31）与试验组（n=31），对照组采用常规健康干预，试验组在此基础上采用糖尿病教育，针对两组患者干预前后的知识水平、自我管理、血糖水平进行比较。结果 试验组干预后的糖尿病知识评分高于对照组（P＜0.05）；自我管理能力评分优于对照组（P＜0.05）；空腹血糖（FBG）、餐后2h血糖（2hPG）、糖化血红蛋白（HbA1c）水平低于对照组（P＜0.05）。结论 糖尿病教育有利于提升患者知识水平，解决患者自我管理能力不足的问题，也实现了降低患者血糖水平的目标，临床应用价值较大。

Abstract

Objective To explore the impact of diabetes education on improving patients’ knowledge level and self-management.
Methods A total of 62 diabetic patients admitted to our hospital between May 2025 and May 2026 were selected as study subjects and randomly divided into a control group (n=31) and an experimental group (n=31) using a random number table. The control group received routine health interventions, while the experimental group received additional diabetes education. The knowledge level, self-management ability, and blood glucose levels of both groups were compared before and after intervention.
Results After intervention, the diabetes knowledge scores in the experimental group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05); self-management ability scores were also superior (P < 0.05); and fasting blood glucose (FBG), 2-hour postprandial glucose (2hPG), and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels were lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05).
Conclusion   Diabetes education effectively enhances patients’ knowledge, improves their self-management capabilities, and helps achieve better blood glucose control, demonstrating significant clinical value.
