ABSTRACT

This study observed whether it is possible to improve glycemic control, knowledge and attitudes about diabetes mellitus by simple interventions without major financial investments in patients with low schooling. Patients answered two questionnaires (DNK-A and ATT19), and then the intervention group received a leaflet containing some information about food and quality of life. Glycemic and HbA1c levels were collected from medical records. Glycemic control, knowledge and attitude scores were improved in patients with little education, suggesting that they can benefit from a simple intervention.
