Objective. Our research investigated the impact of mobile phone distance video education of patients with type II diabetes. This approach was delivered to 100 type 2 diabetes patients based on their cognitive-social factors and metabolic variables. Subjects and Methods. A randomized controlled trial study design was employed. Diabetes education videos were designed and were streamed to the smartphones of the patients. Data were collected from the control (n=50) and experimental (n=50) groups in the first interview, and metabolic control data were recorded. The second interview was held three months after the education process was completed. During this meeting, the survey instrument and the Turkish version of the Multidimensional Diabetes Questionnaire was re-administered to both groups, and metabolic control data were recorded. Results. Following the distance video education, there was a significant decrease in the FPG (1.2 mmol/L) HbA1c (-1.04%), LDL (-0.4 mmol/L) and BMI (-0.7 kg/m2) values of the experimental group, and their cognitive-social factors were found to improve in terms of perceiving diabetes. Conclusions. In our study, distance education via mobile phones was an influential approach on cognitive-social factors and metabolic variables of type 2 diabetes patients
