Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of diabetes self-management education (DSME) provided in a large urban emergency department (ED) by a certified diabetes educator using a "learner-centered" approach to teaching survival skills. It was hypothesized that an intervention providing learner-centered education in the ED would significantly improve diabetes knowledge and self-management skills.
Methods: Participants were patients who presented to the ED with uncontrolled blood glucose with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
