1. Study of Clinical Nursing Practice and Diabetic Patient Education
The purpose of this study was to find the content, method, evaluation of clinical nursing practice and patient education for diabetic patients. Although more than 70% of the patients followed medical requirements regarding pathogenesis or treatment, the areas which nurses emphasized, such as foot care, had a low rate of patient acceptance.
2. Study of Patients Needs Relating to Diabetic Education
The purpose of this study was to investigate the nurses' role in meeting the diabetic patient's educational needs. This needs investigation was conducted on 105 diabetic individuals who consulted the endocrinology department as outpatients at a university hospital. As a result, the following become clear. Over 60 percent of the 105 patients expressed the need for education relating to diabetic "complications", "condition", "diabetic therapy", and "control index". In correlation, the study found a high need for patient education regarding the disease process and medical treatment for diabetes.
3. Study of Patient Emotional needs and Coping Mechanisms
The purpose of this study was to identify the coping mechanisms needed for the coordination of diabetic self-management, lifestyle changes and positive outcomes. The findings showed that the dietary restrictions were burdensome to diabetic individuals in social situations. As a result, these individuals did not want to be noticed as having diabetes.
