Objective To evaluate the diabetes education conducted among outpatients with type 2 diabetes. Methods The study involved 109 patients with type 2 diabetes under the control of endocrinologists at State Central Clinical Hospital. The knowledge about diabetes was evaluated with the 4 package questionnaire with 16 questions before and after the education, and clinical measurements including BMI, waist circumference, blood pressure, HbA1C, Blood cholesterol and Triglyceride were tested before, 1 month and 6 month after the education. The statistical data analyzed by the SPSS12.00 software. Results Following the inclusion criteria and obtaining an informed consent per individual, 109 participants with age ranges from 26-54 involved in the study. 7 participants were excluded from the study. Of the study participants 77% from urban and 23% from rural area and 51% was male and 49% was female. The average duration of illness is 3,8±1,6 year. A total of 5 day training was conducted per individual and group. The participants knowledge about disease was significantly correlated with fasting blood glucose, waist circumference and BMI (r=0,18, p＜0,005) before and 1 and 6 month after the training. HbA1c level was improved significantly (P＜0.02) after 6 month of the training. Conclusion The individual and group diabetes education is important for patients with type 2 diabetes patients.
