Outline of Final Research Achievements

Purpose: This study aimed to assess the correlation between functional health literacy or self-efficacy and the Glycated Hemoglobin A1C (HbA1c) or self-care activities for patients with type 2 diabetes.Methods: We enrolled patients with type 2 diabetes and collected data thrice. The first survey gathered data about the functional health literacy, self-efficacy, HbA1c, self-care activities, and other data for patients with type 2 diabetes. The second and third surveys gathered data after 6 and 12 months of the first survey. Data regarding the functional health literacy and characteristics were collected in the first survey only.Results: We surveyed approximately 200 patients. Of these, 24% provided inadequate data and had mid-level functional health literacy. No marked difference and correlation were observed between functional health literacy level and the outcomes, such as HbA1c, self-care activities, and other data, for patients with type 2 diabetes.
