摘要

背景:在南非,2型糖尿病(T2D)的患病率不断上升,而且很大一部分人血糖控制不良。目的:我们已经开发了“糖尿病在一起”,这是一种基于夫妇的干预,以支持糖尿病自我管理,我们探索了礼拜场所作为招募社区夫妇的潜在选择。环境:南非开普敦低收入地区的礼拜场所。方法:社区进入包括接近每个礼拜场所的领导,讨论该计划和我们招募15-20对符合条件的夫妇的目标,其中一方患有T2D。研究小组和研究报告被介绍给每个会众。登记在三个干预会议的第一次进行。记录出席、参与者反馈和引导者观察。使用描述性统计总结招聘和保留结果。根据评估问题和确定的总体主题,对参与者和促进者的反馈进行演绎编码。结果:在与六个礼拜场所的负责人接触后,在两个教堂和一个清真寺进行了干预。共有37名T2D患者接受了筛查;34例符合条件并有自我报告的T2D诊断,32例伴侣被筛查。29对夫妇符合条件,24对夫妇报名参加。这三个地方的留存率都很好,第三次留存率至少达到75%。参与者和推动者的反馈显示,参与者获得了新的知识,对糖尿病管理持积极态度,重视小组互动和开放沟通。结论:在一定条件下,从开普敦低收入环境的宗教场所招募夫妇是可行的。干预是可以接受的,重复疗程的夫妇保留率很高。贡献:由于利用宗教场所等社区环境进行糖尿病管理规划的证据有限,我们提出了在南非从这些环境中成功招募的实际考虑。

Using places of worship to recruit and retain couples for the 'Diabetes Together' intervention.

Background:  There is a growing prevalence of type 2 diabetes (T2D) in South Africa and a high proportion of people have poor glycaemic control.

Aim:  Having developed 'Diabetes Together', a couples-based intervention to support diabetes self-management, we explored places of worship as potential options for recruiting couples in the community.

Setting:  Places of worship in low-income settings in Cape Town, South Africa.

Methods:  Community entry involved approaching leadership of each place of worship to discuss the programme and our target of recruiting 15-20 eligible couples, where one partner was living with T2D. The research team and study were introduced to each congregation. Enrolment took place at the first of three intervention sessions. Attendance, participant feedback and facilitator observations were recorded. Recruitment and retention outcomes were summarised using descriptive statistics. Participant and facilitator feedback was deductively coded based on the evaluation questions and overarching themes identified.

Results:  The intervention was conducted in two churches and one mosque after engaging with leaders of six places of worship. A total of 37 people living with T2D were screened; 34 were eligible and had a self-reported T2D diagnosis, 32 partners were screened. Twenty-nine couples were eligible, and 24 couples enrolled. Retention was good across all three places, minimum 75% by session three. Participant and facilitator feedback revealed that participants gained new knowledge, reported having a positive attitude towards diabetes management and valued group interaction and open communication.

Conclusion:  Recruitment of couples from places of worship in low-income settings in Cape Town was feasible under certain conditions. The intervention was acceptable and retention of couples for repeated sessions was high.Contribution: As there is limited evidence on using community settings like places of worship for diabetes management programmes, we present practical considerations for successful recruitment from these settings in South Africa.
