Effects of Arm Swing Exercise Program on Blood Sugar Level, Nutritional status and Perceived Self-Efficacy for Exercise in Persons with Uncontrolled Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Main Article Content
Abstract
OBJECTIVE:
This experimental research design was aimed at determining the effects of an Arm Swing Exercise (ASE) Program on blood sugar levels (HbA1c), nutritional status and perceived self-efficacy for exercise in persons with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
MATERIALS AND MEDTHODS:
Fifty-eight participants who met the research criteria were randomly selected into two groups: an experimental group receiving the ASE Program and a control group receiving routine nursing care. Data from demographic characteristics, perceived self-efficacy for exercise, HbA1c and nutritional status were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, and ANCOVA.
RESULTS:
The experimental group had significantly lower HbA1c, higher skeletal muscle and perceived self-efficacy for exercise compared to before the Program (p < 0.01; p < 0.05; p < 0.001, respectively); and significantly decreased waist circumference and increase perceived self-efficacy for exercise compared to the control group (p < 0.01; p < 0.001, respectively).
CONCLUSION:
The ASE program is effective and efficient in controlling HbA1c and improving nutritional status.
