Le résumé fourni par la source
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a major chronic disease that requires continuous self-management to prevent long-term complications. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the Sweet Escape Game in promoting complication-prevention behaviors among patients with T2DM in Pathum Thani, a central province of Thailand. A quasi-experimental two-group pretest–posttest design was conducted with 64 participants, including 32 in the intervention group and 32 in the comparison group. Participants in the intervention group received the eight-week Sweet Escape Game program, which was developed based on the Health Belief Model, whereas those in the comparison group received usual diabetes education. Data were collected using structured interview questionnaires assessing dietary behavior, physical activity, and medication-use behavior. Blood glucose levels were measured before and after the intervention. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, paired and independent samples t-tests, and analysis of covariance. Following the intervention, participants who received the Sweet Escape Game demonstrated significantly greater improvements in dietary behavior, physical activity, and medication-use behavior than those receiving usual diabetes education (P < 0.05). However, no significant between-group difference was observed in blood glucose level after the eight-week intervention. These findings suggest that the Sweet Escape Game is an effective theory-based, game-based health education intervention for strengthening diabetes complication-prevention behaviors in community settings. Integrating this intervention into routine diabetes self-management education programs in primary healthcare settings may enhance patient engagement and promote sustainable self-management behaviors.
