Objectives of the Study
- To evaluate the impact of nurse-led DSME on glycemic control among diabetic patients at UJTH.
- To identify factors influencing the effectiveness of DSME programs.
- To recommend strategies to enhance the effectiveness of DSME at UJTH.
Research Questions
- How does nurse-led DSME affect glycemic control among diabetic patients at UJTH?
- What factors influence the effectiveness of DSME programs?
- What strategies can improve the effectiveness of DSME at UJTH?
Research Hypotheses
- Nurse-led DSME significantly improves glycemic control among diabetic patients at UJTH.
- Factors such as patient engagement and program structure influence the effectiveness of DSME.
Scope and Limitations of the Study
This study focuses on diabetic patients at UJTH. Limitations may include the study's cross-sectional design and potential biases in self-reported data.
