Intervenção educativa baseada em internet junto às pessoas com diabetes tipo 2 no contexto da atenção primária à saúde

Abstract

Diabetes Mellitus, a metabolic disease, with a growing rate worldwide, has a high rate of morbidity and mortality, leading to a significant decrease in quality of life. Studies have shown that a healthy lifestyle is effective in preventing and controlling blood glucose levels. This project aims to develop and validate an educational program of non-pharmacological interventions via the web for people with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus treated at a Primary Health Care service in the city of Araguari-MG. This is an applied (technological) research, with a mixed methodology. The method chosen for the development of the set of interventions was the Contextualized Instructional Design (DIC). For the collection of information and content that will appear in the application (especially carried out in the analysis and design phases in the DIC) the chosen strategy will be the Delphi Method. Patients should receive the information, via posting on a WhatsApp group called Routine in Day, through text messages, videos, audios and images about diabetes, healthy eating, physical activity, correct use of medications, sleep, mental health, toxic control, guidelines on the reduction of chronic complications based on scientific evidence. After two rounds of the Delphi method, the Content Validity Index was above the standard in the literature. It is expected that the current proposal will be a useful and accessible tool for diabetic patients in the incorporation of a healthy lifestyle and contribute to the control of the disease by facilitating communication between staff and patients
