Summary

Diabetes is a global problem for the world and negatively affects life (1). The most important reasons for ineffective diabetes and insulin treatment include fear of insulin side effects, fear of insulin injection, social embarrassment from administering insulin, fear of hypoglycemia and/or hyperglycemia (2). A large portion of diabetic individuals experience these fears, and some of these patients cope with these fears and integrate them into their daily lifestyles. However, some diabetic patients may be ineffective in coping with these fears (3). This situation creates negativities in the individual's success in treatment and compliance with treatment (3). Diverting attention is one of the non-pharmacological methods used in pain control. Diverting attention is one of the most preferred methods in reducing the pain experienced by patients during diagnosis and treatment procedures. It is a method that allows patients to control and reduce their symptoms by focusing their attention on a different point (4). In this study, the use of a distracting curtain during self-injection in individuals with Type 2 diabetes will be examined in order to examine the effect of pain and fear.
