Assessing Barriers and Adherence to Insulin Injection Technique in People With Diabetes: Development and Validation of New Assessment Tools
Authors' conclusion
Reliability and validity of the two scales assessing barriers and adherence to insulin injection technique were demonstrated. The two scales can be used in clinical practice to identify persons in need of education in insulin injection technique.
Study context
- Population
- People with T1D and T2D using an insulin pen for insulin injections
- Participants
- 313 people
- Comparison
- Barriers scale vs Adherence scale
- Outcome
