Brief Summary
|
Aims & objectives: Aim: To investigate the relationship between health literacy and self-care behaviours among Indian diabetic patients across various cultural zones in India.
Objectives: 1. To assess the health literacy levels of diabetic patients in different cultural zones of India. 2. To evaluate the self-care behaviours of diabetic patients in these zones. 3. To examine the correlation between health literacy and self-care behaviours.
Detailed description of procedure/processes: The objective of the study has been established with specific inclusion and exclusion criteria. A sample size of 422 participants was determined using the appropriate formula. The study employs an online survey format incorporating two questionnaires, namely HLS-IND-Q16 and SDSCA, which have been combined. The HLS-IND-Q16 questionnaire focuses on various aspects of health literacy among diabetic patients, including access to health information, the ability to find reliable health information, and active health management. Each domain is scored independently, with higher scores indicating better health literacy. The SDSCA questionnaire assesses self-care behaviors related to diet, exercise, blood sugar testing, foot care, and medication adherence. Data collection will be conducted through multiple social media channels to ensure a diverse representation across cultural zones in India. Collected data will then be analyzed using Jamovi software, with correlation analysis between health literacy and self-care practices performed using the Spearman correlation coefficient. Subsequently, the results of the HLS-IND-Q16 and SDSCA assessments will be interpreted, highlighting differences in health literacy and self-care behaviors across different cultural zones. Finally, the study will discuss the implications of these findings for tailoring diabetes management strategies to diverse cultural contexts in India. Statistical methods: Descriptive statistics and Inferential statistics analysis
