Abstract

Objective: To identify the relationship between the contact time in educational interventions and self-care variables in users of the Family Health Strategy service with diabetes mellitus.
Method: Quasi-experimental before and after study. Data were collected between August and December 2019 at two different times: on the first day (initial moment) and on the last day (final moment) of an educational intervention. In the analysis, paired t-student was used to compare the mean scores in the initial and final moments.
Results: The participants were 57 people living with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Analysis showed improvement in the self-care scores between the initial moment (4.15) and the final moment (4.81), with statistical significance (p <0.001).
Conclusion: A positive relationship was identified between the contact time in educational interventions and self-care variables in users of the family health strategy (ESF) service who live with diabetes mellitus.
