Type 2 diabetes is the most common form of diabetes mellitus . The patient’s self-care is regarded as the most important factor in metabolic control in diabetic patients. Therefore, the improvement of self-care behaviors is the first step to control type II diabetes. Accordingly, patient education on self-care behavior is necessary to improve the knowledge and skill of these population. Video-based learning is a method to improve self-care behaviors. As a result, the present study aimed to evaluate the effect of video-based learning on self-care behaviors in type II diabetic patients.

Systematic probable sampling method was performed for sampling and two questionnaires were utilized for collecting demographic and self-control behaviors in diabetic patients. The intervention group received video-based instructions in four sessions while the control group only received routine cares without any instructions. The data were analyzed in SPSS software (Version 24) through paired and independent t-tests, Wilcoxon signed-rank test, and the Chi-square test. In addition, P-value less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
Results: According to the results obtained from the independent t-test, there was no statistically significant difference between the intervention and control groups the pretest scores. However, a significant difference was observed between the in terms of the posttest scores after the intervention and video-based instructions (P<0.05).
Conclusion: The results revealed that the implementation of video-based learning methods can have an effect on the improvement of self-care behaviors among patients.
