The deterioration of glycemic control in adolescents with Type 1 diabetes (T1DM) is a genuine cause for concern. Possible reasons for worsening glycemic control in youth include lack of monitoring, inadequate self-care, psychosocial factors, lack of family support and parental supervision, non-adherence to treatment, pubertal increases in insulin resistance, and insufficient transition from pediatric to adult care. In adolescents with established T1DM who transition to adult-focused care, there is observed disengagement or complete detachment from care. Improving glycemic control during adolescence is a critical stage to enhance and reduce complications associated with T1DM. Adolescents with T1DM require appropriate daily insulin therapy, regular blood sugar monitoring, physical activity, healthy nutrition, education, and support to delay or prevent diabetes-related complications.This study aims to determine the impact of education and motivational interviews conducted through tele-nursing on the management of diabetes in adolescents with Type 1 diabetes.
