DPN often occurs in people with diabetes mellitus, where one out of every five people with diabetes mellitus is at risk of it. DPN occurs in more than 50% of people with type 2 diabetes and is a significant risk factor for skin breakdown, amputations, and reduced physical mobility.This study aims to see the effect of neuropathic exercise interventions on decreasing HbA1C values in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.Methods: This research is quantitative research with a Pre-Experimental Design with a Pretest-Posttest Group Design approach aiming to see the effect of neuropathic exerciseon the decrease in HbA1C values in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The intervention carried out in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus is neuropathic exercise. Onthe pre-test, Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus were assessed for neuropathy symptoms using 10-gram monofilament and measuring the HbA1C value and then given the intervention of neuropathic exercise, which is carried out every day for 15 minutes for six weeks. Onthe post-test, an assessment of changes in HbA1C values for people with type 2 diabetes mellitus was carried out.Results: The results showed an effect of neuropathic exercise on a decrease in HbA1C values. Before the intervention of neuropathic exercise, the HbA1C value with a Mean ± SD of 10.42 ± 12.877; after the intervention of the neuropathic e xercise, the HbA1C value became 9.88 ± 2.904 with a pvalue:0.001.Conclusion: Neuropathic exercise can be done in people with diabetes mellitus to decrease HbA1c values and prevent DPN.","PeriodicalId":35294,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Nursing Education Scholarship","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135319811","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
