Objective To explore the value of Internet-based home care for diabetic patients in diabetes community care.
Methods A total of 156 patients diagnosed with diabetes in our hospital from October 2016 to October 2017 were enrolled. The patients were divided into two groups according to the random number method, with 78 patients in each group. The control group received routine care, and the observation group performed Internet-based home continuity care, both of which were treated for 6 months. After the care, the changes of blood glucose (FBG, PBG, Hb A1c), treatment adherence (drug compliance, diet control, exercise, blood glucose monitoring, foot care) and changes in quality of life (physiological, physiological, health, physical pain, social function, energy, mental health, emotional function) were compared between the two groups.
Results After treatment, the levels of FBG, PBG and Hb A1c in the two groups were significantly lower (all
P < 0.05), and the observation group was significantly lower than the control group (all
P <0.05). After nursing, the drug compliance, diet control, exercise, blood glucose monitoring, foot care and self-management scores of the two groups were significantly increased (all
P < 0.05), and the observation group was significantly higher than the control group (all
P < 0.05). After nursing, the scores of physiological function, physiological function, health status, physical pain, social function, energy, mental health and emotional function of the two groups were significantly increased (all
P < 0.05), and the observation group was significantly higher than the control group (all
P <0.05).
Conclusion Internet-based home continuity care has a clear curative effect in diabetes community care, which can improve the patient's glycemic control effect and treatment compliance, improve the patient's quality of life, and is worthy of promotion and application.
