Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
The main hypotheses of the study are:
Digital storytelling has an impact on women with gestational diabetes' perception of diabetes self-management.
Digital storytelling has an impact on the diabetes self-efficacy levels of women with gestational diabetes.
Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
In the hospital where the study was conducted, pregnant women with gestational diabetes are directed to the Endocrine outpatient clinic and receive standard training by the diabetes team. Pregnant women in the intervention group will be shown videos created in addition to the standard training of the institution where the research data were collected.
Pregnant women in the intervention group will be shown videos created in addition to the standard training of the institution where the research data were collected. Pregnant women participating in the study will be followed for four weeks. Pre-test data will be collected from pregnant women who meet the sampling criteria within the first week and how the research will proceed will be explained. Four separate videos, created specifically for each determined topic, will be sent to women daily via online environments during the first week and they will be made available for viewing. Once a week, short videos will be sent to the pregnant woman as a reminder and she will be allowed to watch them. Women will be asked to keep records of their blood sugar monitoring results for four weeks. In the fourth week, post-test data from women will be collected through scales.
Scales to be used in the research
* Introductory Information Form (pre-test)
* Diabetes Self-Efficacy Scale (pre-test/post-test)
* Perceived Diabetes Self-Management Scale (pre-test/post-test)
* International Physical Activity Questionnaire (pre-test/post-test)
* Blood Sugar Monitoring Form (post-test)

Intervention Group
In addition to the standard training, digital story videos were watched in the intervention group. Digital story videos created in line with four main topics related to diabetes self-management were sent to women via online platforms. During the follow-up period, reminder videos were sent once a week regarding the topics. Pre-test and post-test were administered face to face.
Digital Story
Digital storytelling; It is used in education and training, business marketing, non-profit organizations such as libraries, community centers and museums, and health sciences education. Digital storytelling in health sciences can be a tool for patients and health science professionals to share their experiences, cope with diseases, and add a human element to health problems.
In the study, digital stories were created to increase the self-management of pregnant women with gestational diabetes. In creating a digital story; Qualitative studies involving the self-management experiences of women with gestational diabetes have been examined in the literature. Using the results of the studies, scenarios were created that included factors that facilitate and complicate diabetes self-management. The created scenarios were used in the digital storytelling initiative. A total of four long and four short digital story videos were prepared.
Control Group
The control group received only standard training.
