What is it about?
The T-SDKS was linguistically and psychometrically validated for assessing the diabetes knowledge of Thai people with T2DM. This study has demonstrated that it can be used in busy clinical settings to provide data to clinicians.

Why is it important?
This instrument can be used as a diagnostic tool for targeted health education intervention in Thailand. The T-SDKS is reasonably easy to use survey that measures general diabetes knowledge and also can be used in a busy clinical setting.
Perspectives
I hope this tool can be used to improve health education interventions among people with T2DM.
