| Sumario: | Objective: To study the effect of telephone call intervention on glycemic control in diabetic patients for 2 months
Materials and Methods: The quasi-experimental research included 130 Patients from January 2020 to March 2020 in primary care. The 115 patients were divided into 2 groups through a simple randomization process, 61 in experimental group and 54 in control group after exclusion. 115 Patients will be tested for Capillary blood glucose (CBG) level at a period of 0-month, 1-month and 2-months. CBG level were presented in mean ± SD, mean difference ± SD and analyzed by Independent t-test and Paired t-test.
Results: The phone call intervention can lower CBG level compared to the control group. Mean difference of CBG between 0 month and 2 months follow-up in phone calls group vs control group (-6.80 ± 4.86 vs -2.96 ± 4.82 mg/dL) and mean difference CBG level between 1 month and 2 months follow-up in phone calls group vs control group (-5.77 ± 4.09 vs -4.22 ± 5.10 mg/dL) but had no significant difference (p >0.05)
Conclusion: The follow-up phone calls can lower CBG level in the experimental group more than the control group, but there is no significant difference.
