Brief Summary:
The aim of the study is to assess the effectiveness of an intervention for insulin injection initiation based on the Transtheoretical Model (TTM) for insulin-naïve patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
Detailed Description:
According to the Transtheoretical Model (TTM) proposed by Prochaska and Diclemente, people will experience different stages of change before the actual behavioral change takes place. Ineffectiveness of intervention to instigate behavioral change is largely due to failure to take into account the stage of change in which individuals are. The TTM suggests that decisional balance, which reflects the relative difference between pros and cons, is important for influencing the stage of change. In order to achieve behavioral change, the perceived pros of changing must be strengthened to outweigh the cons. In addition, individual must be self-convinced that the behavioral change is important for themselves. Furthermore, the process for behavioral change can be provided to facilitate behavioral change in individuals. The theory of TTM has yet been used to improve the behavior of insulin initiation in insulin-naïve patients with T2DM. Thus, this study aims to assess the effectiveness of an intervention for insulin injection initiation based on the TTM in insulin-naïve patients with T2DM.
