摘要

OBJECTIVE: Poorly controlled diabetes may occur because caregivers of children with type 1 diabetes fail to comprehend provided diabetes education. We hypothesized that poorly controlled diabetes is associated with lower literacyumerical skills of caregivers of children with type 1 diabetes. METHODS: Primary caregivers were evaluated by using Newest Vital Sign (NVS) and a sociodemographic questionnaire. The NVS identifies individuals who are at risk for low health literacy by measuring general literacyumeracy skills and yields an overall estimate of health literacy. The NVS scores are interpreted to suggest inadequate, limited, or adequate literacy. RESULTS: Two hundred caregivers of children who had type 1 diabetes with mean hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) of 8.8 +/- 1.9%, age of 11.8 +/- 3.7 years, duration of disease of 4.8 +/- 3.3 years, and BMI of 20.8 +/- 4.4 kg/m(2) participated. HbA1c in those of inadequate literacy (10.4 +/- 2.2%) was significantly higher than in those of adequate literacy (8.6 +/- 1.7%; P < .001). HbA1c in those whose caregivers had limited literacy (9.5 +/- 2.2%) did not differ significantly from the other 2 groups. On adjusting for independent covariates, we found that children whose caregivers had at least 50% correct math answers had better glycemic control (8.5 +/- 1.7%) than those who failed (9.8 +/- 2.1%; P < .0005). CONCLUSIONS: Literacy and numerical skills of caregivers significantly influence glycemic control of their children with type 1 diabetes. Assessing literacyumeracy skills of caregivers and addressing these deficiencies may be crucial in optimizing glycemic control.
