Diabetes Educator Oral Health Training Program Evaluation Data

An Australian study recruited 30 diabetes educators from New South Wales and Victoria. The dataset likely contains results from a quasi-experimental study evaluating a three-module training program, including pre-post knowledge scores and confidence assessments. The data was authored by Ajesh George and last updated on 2026-05-21.

Use Cases

• Evaluate the impact of online training modules on healthcare provider knowledge based on pre-post test scores.
• Assess the feasibility of integrating oral health screening into diabetes care based on qualitative interview data.
• Analyze the sustainability of clinical resource adoption based on participant feedback.
• Model confidence improvements in discussing, screening, and referring clients to oral health services based on questionnaire variables.

Strengths

• Includes specific quantitative results: pre-test knowledge mean score of 23.24 and post-test mean of 29.67.
• Qualitative data on acceptability, feasibility, and sustainability was collected via semi-structured interviews.
• Training program was developed using the Medical Research Council framework for complex interventions.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Data may reflect geographic bias inherent to recruitment from only two Australian states.
