The proportion of incident type 2 diabetes is 95% of the population of DM in the world. The prevalence of DM in Indonesia showed an increase of 1.1% in 2007 to 2.1% of the population of DM in 2013, and the most cases are Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Management of blood sugar levels can be conducted of pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic. One of nonpharmacologic therapy is a complementary therapy. Progressive muscle relaxation is part of a of complementary therapy which is a mindbody therapy. Objective: This study aimed to measure the effectiveness of progressive muscle relaxation of the blood sugar levels of patients with type 2 diabetes. Materials and Methods: Quasi experiment with pre- and posttest randomized control group design, consisting of 48 samples, 24 samples 24 samples of the treatment group and the control group. Subjects treated group guided progressive muscle relaxation exercises 2 times a day for 3 consecutive days with a duration of 25 - 30 minutes in one workout. Subjects of the control group gave breathing exercises. Results: There were significant differences between the average blood sugar levels type 2 diabetes patients in the the treatment group and the control group, with p value = 0.000 (p < 0.05). Conclusion: The progressive muscle relaxation is effective to reduce blood sugar levels of patients with type 2 diabetes at Dr. Salamun Hospital and Advent Hospital in Bandung.展开更多

The overall goal is to assess diabetes patients’ knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors about prevalent diabetic complications. This research used a descriptive qualitative methodology to assess diabetes complication knowledge, attitude, and practice. Ninety-eight diabetic patients were visiting the Egyptian Hospital in Mogadishu for four weeks. The data was collected using questionnaires. Finally, SPSS 20 was utilized for analysis. The research was performed from May to July 2020 with a non-probability sample size of 98 diabetics. The bulk of responders were aged 40 - 60 (36.7%). Type 2 was the most common (47.96%). 44.9% of respondents had diabetes for more than ten years. 60.2% had regular checkups, and 54.1 percent had therapy. 52% of participants were on a diet. 63.3% of respondents do not exercise often. However, most responders know the common issues (75%). Less than half of those polled had problems (41.8%). 22% incidence of Diabetic ketoacidosis. 78.6% of respondents know variables that decrease diabetes complications, whereas 22.4% do not. 37.8% of respondents saw a doctor for diabetes problems, whereas 62.2% did not. Diabetic patients’ knowledge, attitude, and practice were satisfactory for fundamental illness entanglements and self-testing. These findings may also be due to patient notification and, therefore, long-term illness that leads them to get acquainted with things alone. However, the tendency for regular exercise was low, which may produce more specific consequences of illness. <strong>Conclusion:</strong> We find that DM patients’ KAP was adequate in terms of knowledge of diabetic complications. These results may explain the patients’ long-standing illness, which forces them to discover things independently. At the same time, just a handful of them were familiar with vasculopathy and cardiovascular disorders. However, the researchers discovered low level of attitudes and practice toward regular exercise and insufficient levels of attitudes and practice toward diet management and treatment adherence. In general, this degree of KAP is suboptimal and requires further assessment of KAP obstacles in Somalia.展开更多
