Research on Improving Patients' Insulin Self-care Ability Based on Swanson Care Theory

Abstract

In recent years, as the number of diabetic patients has gradually increased, the number of insulin injections has also increased accordingly. The mastery of self-injection of insulin by diabetics is essential to the patient’s recovery. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out effective insulin self-care ability improvement education for patients, so that patients can better master self-care skills. This article discusses how to improve patients’ insulin self-care ability based on Swanson’s care theory. The sample used 130 type 2 diabetic patients, and set up the control group and the observation group respectively. Patients in the control group used traditional self-care education methods. The observation group used Swanson-based self-care education methods. Use questionnaires to analyze experimental results. The results showed that the self-care ability score of the observation group was significantly higher than the selfcare ability score of the control group 2 months after discharge, indicating that the Swanson care theory can effectively improve the insulin self-care ability of patients, thereby improving the health of the people. 1
