OBJECTIVEThe aim: Was to evaluate the quality of DSME provided by primary care physicians to people with diabetes mellitus.PATIENTS AND METHODSMaterials and methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted among 120 primary care physicians. The quality of diabetes self-management training provided by physicians was assessed on a personal scale of 39 Likert questions obtained from the American Association of Diabetes Educators in seven areas of diabetes self-monitoring. The Cronbach's reliability coefficient for each domain / subscale was ≥ 0.7. The data were analyzed using an independent selective t-test and one-way ANOVA.RESULTSResults: More than half of the doctors provided "inadequate quality" of diabetes self-management in all areas. Doctors had the highest average score in the domain of "drug intake" (4.46 ± 0.61). Average scores in the "problem-solving domain" (3.52 ± 0.63) and " being active domain" (3.46 ± 0.75) were low. The quality of DSME provided by physicians was not related to any of the characteristics of the physician.CONCLUSIONConclusions: The quality of doctors' communication on DSME in this study was suboptimal. Most adequately informed cases of diabetic behavior associated with self-management have been associated with reduced risk factors and an orientation towards disease. Thus, training of primary care physicians in diabetic self-management is recommended because of the key role that these doctors play in managing diabetes.
