    “A study to assess the effectiveness of self instructional module on knowledge regarding

    home care management of diabetes among patients in selected urban areas at bangalore.”

    CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK.

    The conceptual framework used for this study was derived from general system theory, which
    was developed in the year 1968 by ludwig van. Bertalanff. Ken summarize in his general system
    theory, there are three components that are “input” through out and “output”. Input refers to
    matter. Energy that enters into the system through its boundary. “throughput” refers to
    processing where system transforms the energy and matter. ”output” refers to matter, energy that
    is processed through the system .the feed back is environmental of system.

    Input

    in this study the investigator has considered ,input as the pretest assessment of knowledge
    regarding home care management of diabetes among the patients by structured knowledge
    questionnaire. Throughput process is the activity phase .here the investigator implement self
    instructional module or regarding home care management of diabetes among the patients
    selected from the urban area of bangalore, who fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Including
    knowledge on general information, causes ,incidence, high risk factor, signs and symptoms,
    diagnosis, treatment and prevention.

    Output

    Output from a system is energy matter or information given out by the system as results of its
    processes .in the present study output includes the result either gains in knowledge regarding the
    home care management of diabetes among the given samples. The gained knowledge was
    measured through post-test.

    Feedback

    The feedback is the environment responses to the system. Feedback may be positive or negative
    or natural. In this study input was assessing the knowledge of regarding the home care
    management of diabetes among the taken samples from the urban area of Bangalore .
    Throughput was the activity phase where self instructional module was administered regarding
    the definition, incidence, high risk factor, signs and symptoms, diagnosis, treatment and
    prevention. Output was the change in knowledge regarding the home care management of
    diabetes. After the self instructional module which was measured by using structured knowledge
    questionnaire on diabetes. Feedback emphasizes to strength in the input and throughput .it is
    necessary if the result showed any inadequate knowledge regarding diabetes.
    “A study to assess the effectiveness of self instructional module on knowledge regarding
    home care management of diabetes among patients in selected urban areas at bangalore.”

    REVIEW OF LITERATURE

    research topic. It is a compilation that provides the grounds works to be further study. Related
    research and non research literature was reviewed to broader the understanding and to gains to
    insight into the selected area under study. The review is organized under the following heading

    Part a; Literature related to general knowledge causes of diabetes

    Part b: Literature related to incidence.

    Part c : literature related to prevention and home management.

    Part a; Literature related to general knowledge causes of diabetes

    A “study conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of the structured group education


    program on biomedical ,psychosocial and lifestyle measures among type 2 diabetes patient .the
    intervention group showed significantly positive association between change in perceived

    A “study conducted to evaluate group education for patients with non-insulin dependent
    diabetes. The objective of the study was to identify effective use of hospital resource in relation

    education; and to maintain and/or improve diabetes control. After group education there was a
    significant improvement in knowledge of diabetes, blood sugar control and energy balance. This

    every year are attributable to complications of diabetes; six deaths every minute. The top 10
    countries, in numbers of sufferers are india, china, usa, indonesia, japan, pakistan, russia, brazil,
    italy, and bangladesh. At present in india 41 million patients suffering with diabetes mellitus and
    this number will reach 79.4 million by 2030. In mangalore by 2004 it was2002 cases, 2005 -
    1624 cases, 2006 -1834 and in the year 2007it was 1554 case found newly.

    and 30 healthy children were included in the study. The detailed neurological examinations were
    conducted and result showed that the peripheral neuropathy is rather a frequently observed
    complication in diabetic children.

    Part c : Literature related to prevention and home management.

    A cross sectional study was conducted to examine the relationship between diabetes self
    management, fasting blood sugar and quality of life among type 2 diabetic patients with foot
    ulcers,80 participants with type 2 diabetes who had foot ulcers. Received the diabetes treatment
    in king chulalongkorn memorial hospital, thailand. Self management was assessed by evaluating
    dietary intake ,exercise ,medication, self monitoring, hygienic and foot care. The analysis
    revealed that there was a negative significant association between fasting sugar and quality of
