Impact of a summer camp for adolescents with type 1 diabetes: longitudinal study
Abstract
Objective: to characterize adolescents with type 1 diabetes, frequenters of a summer camp, and their evolution in the dimensions of knowledge about the disease, self-efficacy, quality of life and glycated hemoglobin. Method: quantitative comparative study before and after the field, with follow-up of six months. Knowledge (test of knowledge about diabetes), self-efficacy (self-efficacy diabetes scale), quality of life (disabkids chronic generic measure) and glycated hemoglobin were evaluated in three moments, from 2018 to 2019, in 30 adolescents with diabetes aged 15 to 18, who participated in a summer camp. Results: the adolescents initially had high overall knowledge (>80%) in the area of physical exercise, hypoglycemia and complications of diabetes, and less than 60% on insulin conservation, lancet replacement, meals, glucose monitoring, vomiting, diarrhea and alcohol consumption. Levels of social self-efficacy increased after the colony, but did not continue after six months. There were no changes in the values of glycated hemoglobin and quality of life after the colony. Conclusion: the colony produced an effect on social self-efficacy, however, there is no impact on the level of knowledge and quality of life of the participants. The results suggest the implementation of structured programs focused on promoting diabetes self-management.
