Abstract

|
|
This study was to offer data for appropriate nursing intervention and therapeutic plan in clients with type II diabetes by examining symptom-associating and action-taking of the blood glucose change.
Using an instrument developed by Edna H. et al10,13), data was collected by interview to 68 clients with type II diabetes treated at O.P.D. in internal medicine department of M Hospital in Pusan during the period of June 4th to 23rd 1990.
The results were as follows.
1. Symptoms associated with blood glucose change(Table 1-1, 1-2, 3).
All subjects used symptoms associated with high blood glucose, 75% of subjects used symptoms associated with low blood glucose. There was significant difference between use of symptoms and blood glucose change (X2=19. 428, P <.001), but there was no significant difference between general characteristics and symptoms associated with blood glucose change.
2. Response to symptoms associated with blood glucose change (Table 2-1, 2-2, 3).
98.53% of subjects using symptoms associated with high blood glucose took actions in response to symptoms, 61.77% of subjects using symptoms associated with low blood glucose took actions in response to symptoms. There was significant difference between response to symptoms and blood glucose change (X2=28.882, P <.001), and between type of treatment among general characteristics and response to symptoms associated with low blood glucose(X2=13.845, P <.05).
77.62% of subjects with response to symptoms associated with high blood glucose, and 88.10% of subjects with response to symptoms associated with low blood glucose reported relief or decrease of symptoms. But there was no significant difference between effects of response to symptoms and symptoms associated with blood glucose change.
