The Effect of Self-Management Support on Glycemic Control Behaviors in Type II Diabetes Patients
Main Article Content
Abstract
This one group pretest-posttest quasi-experimental study aimed at investigating effects of self-management support on glycemic control behaviors in type II diabetes patients. The self-management support was based on the concept of Glasgow & Miller. The subjects consisted of 35 patients with type II diabetes receiving treatment at Suan Kluai Sub-district health promoting hospital. The research tools consisted of self-management support and self-management behavior questionnaires for diabetic patients and a blood glucose record form. The content validity index was .90 and .94, respectively, and the Cronbach alpha coefficient was .83 and .87, respectively. Data were analyzed by descriptive statistics and t-test comparison. The results of the research showed that after receiving support for self-management, participants reported a higher level of supported self-management (t=4.95, p<.05), a higher level of self-management behavior (t=2.27, p<.05), but a lower level of glycemic control (t=5.77, p<.05). Self-management support helps individuals to develop good self-management behaviors and to control their blood glucose levels.
