Brief Summary:
A huge challenge in type 2-diabetes care is how to motivate patients towards health behaviour changes. In Denmark, the tendency is that nurses in general practice provide a large part of type 2 diabetes care.
Observational studies support Self-determination Theory by finding autonomous motivation and perceived competence associated with improved HbA1c-levels in patients with type 2 diabetes. Hence, research is needed to develop and test interventions that are autonomy supportive.
Aim To develop a training course for practice-nurses in autonomy support in patients with type 2 diabetes, and to evaluate the effect on patient outcomes.
Methods The development of the intervention was based on literature research and expert meetings. The intervention is evaluated in a cluster randomised controlled trial with 40 Danish general practices,
* where nurses, before enrolment in the study, provided consultations to patients with type 2 diabetes,
* and about 2500 patients with type 2 diabetes, identified in a Diabetes Database.
The patients will be followed 15 months from nurse-participation in the course. Data will be obtained from registers and patient-questionnaires. The hypothesis is that patients with type 2 diabetes regardless of education level, age, and gender will benefit from the intervention.
