Abstract
This study aims to evaluate the level of knowledge regarding diabetes
management among patients and to explore the association between educational
attainment and diabetes awareness. A descriptive cross-sectional study was
conducted involving diabetic patients. Data were collected using a structured
questionnaire that assessed participants’ knowledge of diabetes, its
complications, and self-care practices. Participants’ educational levels were
recorded, and data analysis was performed, employing descriptive statistics and
chi-square tests to determine associations. The findings demonstrated that
patients with higher educational levels possessed significantly better
knowledge about diabetes management compared to those with lower education.
Notably, awareness of complications and self-care measures was inadequate among
participants with primary or no formal education. The study also identified
gaps in understanding that could hinder effective disease control and
complication prevention. To improve diabetes outcomes, tailored educational
programs should be developed targeting populations with limited health literacy.
Incorporating culturally appropriate and accessible educational materials into
routine care can enhance patients’ understanding and self-management skills.
Future research could focus on evaluating the effectiveness of targeted
interventions and exploring the role of digital platforms in diabetes education
to reach broader populations.
