Abstract: Objective: To evaluate the effect of LEARNS model on health education intervention in patients with type 2 diabetes. Methods: Three hundred and seven patients with type 2 diabetes in the endocrinology department of a tertiary grade-A hospital were divided into the experimental group and the control group according to different wards during June to December 2018. LEARNS model for health education intervention was applied to the experimental group while the control group used the regular education mode. Questionnaires on diabetes knowledge, self-management efficacy, and subjective well-being were administered before and after three-month intervention. Results: After three months of intervention, scores of diabetes knowledge questionnaires for both groups were increased significantly (P<0.01). Scores of diabetes self-management efficacy scale and subjective well-being scale after intervention for the experimental group increased significantly compared with those before intervention (P<0.01), while it is not true for the control group (P>0.05). Conclusion: Applying LEARNS model to implement health education can not only help patients improve their knowledge of diabetes, but also significantly enhance their self-management efficacy of diabetes and improve their subjective well-being. Therefore, LEARNS model can be applied to clinical practice.
