Background: A tailored care intervention program implemented related to diabetes self-care activity, HbA1c, and the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) complications was not undertaken in Indonesia. Thus, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a tailored care intervention program for patients with diabetes in Indonesia. Methods: A randomized controlled trial (RCT) with pre- and post-testing was conducted from January to April 2021 with a total of 163 participants: 80 in the intervention group and 83 in the control group (undertaken at three months following baseline collection). The intervention group received a tailored care intervention program that included: (1) brief deducting teaching; (2) assessment for self-care activity and CVD risk; (3) brainstorming and support group; and (4) follow-up. The control group received standard education in the primary health care facilities (Moyo Hilir and Moyo Hulu Primary Health Care). Results: Improvements in diabetes self- care activity, HbA1c, and a lower risk of CVD among patients in the intervention group were the advantages of the tailored care intervention program after the three-month evaluation. Blood pressure, body weight, body mass index (BMI), triglycerides, blood glucose, cholesterol, and a triglyceride glucose index showed no differences in change over time between the intervention and control groups. Conclusion: The tailored care intervention program improved diabetes self-care activity, HbA1c, and decreased the percentage of CVD risk. Moreover, it is culturally acceptable to the Indonesian community with diabetes.
The number of people with diabetes in Indonesia continues to increase every year. The number of diabetic adults aged 20–79 years in 2019 was 463 billion, further increasing to 537 million in 2022 (IDF, 2021). The increase in the number of patients was followed by an increase in the number of diabetic patients with complications. The most common complications due to diabetes in Indonesia are neuropathy, retinopathy, nephropathy, and cardiovascular disease, where cardiovascular disease is one of the deadliest diseases among other complications (Papatheodorou et al., 2018).
Recently, interventions to reduce the number of complications due to diabetes in hospitals have included health education (Hailu et al., 2019; Sassen, 2018). However, health education provided by hospitals to diabetic patients has not achieved maximum results (Sherifali et al., 2016). Data on diabetics with complications is still the main homework for health workers and the government to improve health services.
A study in 2022 mentions that health education in hospitals remains focused on a population- based approach, even though health education should be tailor-made and tuned into the individual needs (social-cognitive determinants, intention, and behavior) of the individual patient (Pranata et al., 2022). Every patient has the right and duty to participate individually and collectively in the planning and implementation of their health care (Sassen, 2018; World Self-medication Industry, 2010). Moreover, patient-centered education leads to more satisfaction, which is important for effective patient education (Sassen, 2018).
In recent years, research efforts in this direction have been labeled tailored care (Dekkers & Hertroijs, 2018). It was then called Ayurvedic medicine, and its aim was to tailor treatment to each person’s prakriti (or constitution) in order to maintain a balance between body, mind, and spirit by taking their individual needs and preferences into account in developing a treatment plan (Dekkers & Hertroijs, 2018; Hertroijs et al., 2018). A tailored approach based on the phenotyping of patients may be such an approach. In this approach, patients’ biopsychosocial characteristics are used to identify subgroups of patients with similar care needs, abilities, and preferences for whom tailored solutions can be developed (Dekkers & Hertroijs, 2018; Hertroijs et al., 2018; Lutes et al., 2020; Osborn et al., 2010). Modifying program delivery for education programs tailored to diabetes may help to curtail the increasing rates of morbidity and mortality currently observed in the diabetes population (Cimo et al., 2020). Patient care and preference, patient-oriented, cultural, and patient-centered care are referred to as tailored care, (Cimo et al., 2020; Dekkers & Hertroijs, 2018; Hertroijs et al., 2018; Lutes et al., 2020; Osborn et al., 2010; Solano et al., 2020). Tailored care is an approach that includes letting clients’ needs guide diabetes education, applying flexibility in teaching to meet individual needs, and empowering clients to self-manage (Cimo & Dewa, 2019a). Personalized care in tailored care programs has been developed by various countries and has great potential to be applied in Indonesia as a new innovation in improving health services for patients with diabetes (Pranata et al., 2021). A tailored care program for the self-management of diabetes might enhance patients’ perception of their level of control of diabetes and enable them to apply more effective self-management and self-care activities, decrease the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD), and improve HbA1C.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a tailored care program among patients with diabetes. The evaluation focused on improvements in diabetes self-care activity, risk of CVD, and HbA1C.
Design
A randomized controlled trial (RCT) with a two-group pre- and post-test design was used to test a repeated measure with a single-blind tailored care intervention program. The research was carried out from January 7 to April 7, 2021.
Study population and Sample size
People with diabetes who visited and registered at primary healthcare facilities in Sumbawa City, West Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia, were included as study samples. The level of significance, or alpha (α)= 0.05, population effect size (ES)= 0.5, and power (1-β) = 0.80 were used to compute the sample size for the study (Kim, 2016). Consequently, 168 volunteers were required for this investigation (84 per group).
The inclusion criteria for the study include being more than 20 years old at the time of recruitment, owning a mobile device, and residing with family members. On the other hand, those who could not consent for themselves or had a history or diagnosis of ischemic heart disease, transient ischemic attack (TIA), peripheral vascular disease, or persistent mental health issues were deemed unsuitable for the trial and excluded.
Usual Care
The basic health care services offered to diabetic patients generally focus on five key areas: diet, medications, physical activity, health education, and routine blood sugar monitoring (Suciana & Arifianto, 2019); moreover, assessments of blood pressure, urine protein levels, and monthly health counseling for each group (Sujana, 2019). Various media are used to give health counseling, but in basic health care, a pamphlet or booklet is typically used (Srikartika et al., 2019).
Tailored Care Intervention Program
The strategies for tailored care for diabetes were divided into seven steps: 1. Brief deducting teaching; 2. Assessment for self-management level and risk of cardio vascular disease among patients; 3. Brainstorming among patients to share their difficulty on glycaemic target and specific target behavior; 4. Making a list of patients’ needs and ranking the priorities; 5. Setting a goal and writing action; 6. Follow-up; and 7. Report of goals attempted.
Instruments
Diabetes self-care activity, CVD risk, and HbA1C were assessed at two different times: M1 (baseline: before the intervention) and M2 (3 months from the commencement of the intervention). The following instruments were used to gather the data: HbA1C by laboratory testing, ISH CVD risk chart, and summary of diabetes self-care activity (SDSCA). The demographic characteristics included the patients’ age, time since the diagnosis of diabetes, sex, religion, education level, and marital status. The laboratory tests included HbA1c.
Process of participant recruitment
The current study was approved by the Indonesia Center for Health Resources and Services Research and Development (Registry number: INA-KFQZKG). The recruitment process for this randomized control trial is depicted in Figure 1.
Data Analysis
IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows v. 20.0 (IBM Corporation, Armonk, NY, USA) was used for archiving and statistical analysis. The statistical methods included descriptive statistics (frequency distributions, percentages, means, and standard deviations) and inferential statistics (independent sample t-tests, paired t-tests, and chi-squared tests).

According to paired t-test analysis (Table 5), the intervention group's HbA1c level was 0.70 with a p-value of 0.05 before and after treatment, whereas the control group's level increased by 0.946, or significantly in the opposite direction. Furthermore, with a p-value of 0.05, the intervention group's involvement in diabetes self-care improved significantly by 15,288. In the control group, there was a rise of 1,229 with a p-value greater than 0.05. As a result, the intervention group outperformed the control group in terms of diabetic self-care activity.

According to the statistics (Table 6), respondents in the intervention group 78.5% and the control group 79.52% had CVD risk <10% before manipulation. However, after being evaluated in three months after being given manipulation, respondents in the intervention group were 75% at risk of developing CVD <10%, while in the control group many respondents 60.24% experienced a greater CVD risk about 10-<20%.
The tailored care intervention was successful in lowering HbA1c in the intervention group, while it was unsuccessful in the control group. An increase of 1% in HbA1c concentration among individuals with diabetes was associated with a 30% increase in all-cause mortality, a 40% increase in cardiovascular or ischemic heart disease mortality, and a 37% increase in microvascular diseases such as nephropathy and retinopathy (Boussageon et al., 2011; Sherwani et al., 2016). Whereas reducing the HbA1c level by 0.2% could lower mortality by 10% (Sherwani et al., 2016). These results are in line with research conducted by Patel (2017) about "a Group-Based Culturally Tailored Lifestyle that is able to improve lifestyle and have an impact on decreasing HbA1c values among his respondents (Patel et al., 2017). Moreover, culturally tailored community health worker home-visiting interventions in patients with diabetes had a mean reduction of 0.53% in HbA1c (Huang et al., 2019). The success of a tailored care intervention program in reducing the HbA1c level among patients with diabetes is expected to be a solution to prevent complications due to diabetes in the future.
The tailored care intervention program was better at improving the diabetes self-care activity of participants in the intervention group if compared with participants in the control group who received traditional health education. Tailored care activities included general diet, specific diet, exercise, footcare, blood glucose monitoring, and smoking (Hailu et al., 2019). Tailored care intervention can improve patients’ adherence to treatment satisfaction and knowledge regardless of their clinical status, further improving self-care behavior or activity (Alfian et al., 2020; Cummings et al., 2019; Hu et al., 2016; Navodia et al., 2019; O’Neil et al., 2016). Other studies mention that tailored care through education and support programs effectively changes knowledge, attitudes, and medication-taking behaviors when compared to the non-provision of tailored care (Caro-Bautista et al., 2021; Choi et al., 2017; Cimo & Dewa, 2019b; Iovane et al., 2017). The main components of the implementation of tailored care intervention programs carried out by researchers consist of the implementation of brief deductive teaching or education and brainstorming with support groups. Educational programs play a significant role in enabling patients to undertake self-care activities (Hailu et al., 2019). Moreover, education needs self-management support to make patients’ health behaviors last for a long time (Cimo & Dewa, 2019a, 2019b; Koetsenruijter et al., 2014; Panagioti et al., 2014). Good self-efficacy affects self-care behavior, increased self-efficacy by approaching cognitive functions, like providing health education about self-care management and health education that presents social or family support (Wahyuni, & Ramayani, 2020).
Diabetes was referred to as the mother of various dangerous chronic diseases. The risk of CVD complications is one of them. The statistical results of this study indicate that the tailored care intervention program is proven to be able to reduce the percentage of CVD risk when compared to traditional health education among the diabetes population. The findings if another study reveal that development of a health education package intended for selfcare to prevent diabetes is necessary (. A patient-centered communication style and treatment decisions based on patient preferences, values, and needs that address cultural barriers have become fundamental approaches in tailored care (Choi et al., 2017; Cimo & Dewa, 2019b; Hertroijs et al., 2018; Holmen et al., 2017; Prato et al., 2010). The approach makes a person more confident and responsible for every decision they make (Cimo & Dewa, 2019b; Hertroijs et al., 2018; Prato et al., 2010). Glycaemic control from the HbA1c indicator has a big impact on the risk of developing diabetes complications (Boussageon et al., 2011; Sherwani et al., 2016). The better the HbA1c, the risk of developing diabetes complications will also be decreased, and vice versa. (Sherwani et al., 2016). Therefore, the decrease in HbA1c among respondents who received tailored care program interventions was closely related to the decrease in CVD risk in the intervention group. Moreover, how much a person will suffer from CVD can also be identified from data on age, gender, smoking or non-smoking status, blood pressure, and cholesterol levels (Chaudhary et al., 2016; Otgontuya et al., 2013; Raghu et al., 2015). Age and gender are variables that cannot be controlled. Meanwhile, variables such as blood pressure in the intervention group that received the tailored care intervention program decreased. A good blood pressure indicator will reduce the risk of CVD complications due to diabetes in the future (Otgontuya et al., 2013).
The tailored care intervention was successful in lowering HbA1c, improving diabetes self-care activity. Moreover, the tailored care intervention program was proven to be able to reduce the percentage of CVD risk when compared to traditional health education among the diabetes population in Indonesia.
