Objective To compare the effectiveness of two dietary health education methods in the management of type 2diabetes mellitus in community, and to evaluate the role of"food fast estimation hand measurement"in community diabetes management.
Methods Using purposive sampling method, we chose 2 health service stations operated on the same basis, and randomly divided into experimental group and control group.In the experimental group, we use food quick hand measurement to conduct the dietary education, and in the control group we use the conventional method to conduct the dietary education.We effectively investigated 96 cases of diabetes.he observation indexes were obtained by questionnaire, physical examination and biochemical examination.
Results In the experimental group and the control group, the difference was statistically significant (
P < 0.05), and the experimental group was significantly higher than the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (
P < 0.01).The satisfaction rate of the "self executing diabetes diet treatment satisfaction"after the intervention were lower than that before the intervention, but only the experimental group had statistical significance.Before the intervention, the observed differences between the two groups were not statistically significant.In each monitoring index, the BP and HDL-C compliance rate of the experimental group was increased, and the difference was statistically significant (
P < 0.05).Control group LDL-C compliance rate has increased, and the difference was statistically significant (
P < 0.01).The average value of each monitoring index, the LDL-C and HDL-C indexes of the experimental group were improved, and the difference was statistically significant (
P < 0.01).The waist circumference, Hb A1 c, LDL-C, HDL-C indexes of the control group were improved, and the difference was statistically significant (
P <0.01).But there was no significant difference between the two groups after the intervention (
P > 0.05).
Conclusion Compared to the traditional education method to improve dietary knowledge, the effect of diabetes food quick hand measurement is more apparent, but there is no better educational effect if it is only conducted in a conventional form of dietary education.Therefore, we need to further explore the dietary education form for diabetes patients.
