Abstract
Objective: To analyze the correlation between nursing consultation and the execution of self-care actions and safe practices in insulin therapy by people with diabetes. Method: Observational, retrospective, and analytical study. Sociodemographic and clinical characteristics and correct answers in a questionnaire with 16 items on safe practices in insulin therapy, applied in the first and second nursing consultations, were analyzed. Results: There was a significant increase in the number of correct answers in the questionnaire regarding aspects related to insulin therapy in the second consultation (14.22±1.59) compared to the first (9.24±3.13) (p<0.001), suggesting improvement in self-care and adherence to safe practices in insulin therapy. Conclusion: There was an improvement in the execution of self-care actions and safe practices in insulin therapy after the nursing consultations, showing that this intervention effectively promotes adequate insulin treatment.
