Abstract

Aim. To compare the effectiveness of two methods of follow‐up: short message service and telephone follow‐up on type 2 diabetes adherence for three months. Background. Using telemedicine approaches may preserve appropriate blood glucose levels and may improve adherence to diabetes control recommendations in diabetic patients. Design. A quasi‐experimental, two‐group, pretest and post‐test design was used in this study to evaluate the effectiveness of nurse’s follow‐up via cellular phones and telephones. Methods. The sample consisted of 77 patients with type 2 diabetes that randomly were assigned to two groups: telephone follow‐up (n = 39) and short message service (n = 38). Telephone interventions were applied by a researcher for three months; twice a week for the first month and every week for the second and third month. For three successive months, the short message service group that received messages about adherence to therapeutic regimen was examined. The data gathering instrument included data sheets – to record glycosylated haemoglobin – and the questionnaire related to adherence therapeutic regimen. Data gathering was carried out at the beginning of the study and after three and six months. The data were analysed using descriptive and inferential statistic methods with SPSS version 11.5. Results. Results showed that both interventions had significant mean changes in glycosylated haemoglobin. For the telephone group (p
