Abstract
Background: At present, China has become the country with the largest number of individuals with diabetes mellitus (DM) in the world, with a total of approximately 140 million patients, the majority of whom have type 2 DM (T2DM). Based on conventional nursing methods, community home care has important clinical significance in controlling blood sugar and disease progression.
Aim: To explore the impact of community public health nursing on treatment effect, health cognition, and self-management in patients with T2DM.
Methods: One hundred patients with T2DM were selected as the research subjects. The patients were divided into either a conventional nursing group or community nursing (CN) group using the random number table method. The conventional nursing group (50 cases) received routine care, while the CN group (50 cases) received community public health care in addition to routine care as that for the conventional nursing group. The rate of excellent and good blood glucose control, fasting blood glucose before and after care, 2-h postprandial blood glucose, health cognition, and self-management ability, and patient satisfaction were compared between the two groups.
Results: The CN group had a higher rate of excellent blood sugar control than the conventional nursing group (88% vs 70%, P < 0.05). Before care, there was no significant difference in fasting blood glucose or 2-h postprandial blood glucose between the two groups of patients (P > 0.05). After nursing, fasting blood glucose and 2-h postprandial blood glucose were reduced to varying degrees in both groups, and both blood glucose levels in the CN group were lower than those of the conventional nursing group (P < 0.05). Compared with the scores before care, the cognitive level score for diabetes and self-management ability score improved after care in both groups. The cognitive level and self-management ability of patients in the CN group were higher than those of the conventional nursing group (P < 0.05). The overall satisfaction of the CN group was better than that of the conventional nursing group (98% vs 86%, P < 0.05).
Conclusion: Community public health care based on conventional care of T2DM can achieve better blood sugar control, and improve patients' health cognitive level and self-management ability.
期刊介绍：
The World Journal of Clinical Cases (WJCC) is a high-quality, peer reviewed, open-access journal. The primary task of WJCC is to rapidly publish high-quality original articles, reviews, editorials, and case reports in the field of clinical cases. In order to promote productive academic communication, the peer review process for the WJCC is transparent; to this end, all published manuscripts are accompanied by the anonymized reviewers’ comments as well as the authors’ responses. The primary aims of the WJCC are to improve diagnostic, therapeutic and preventive modalities and the skills of clinicians and to guide clinical practice in clinical cases.
