Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Applied Medical Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 3
Abstract
Abstract: The number of people with diabetes mellitus is increasing due to population growth, aging, urbanization, & increasing prevalence of obesity & physical inactivity. The aim of this work was to determine the impact of Nutrition health education (NHE)&Interpersonal counseling (IPC)on physiological indicators like blood glucose, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c)&Lipid profile ( total cholesterol, triglyceride, high density lipoprotein, low density lipoprotein)of type 2 diabetes mellitus subjects. In this study T2DM subjects with or without complication, on treatment were taken from endocrine & medicine OPD of M.K.C.G. Medical College & Hospital. They were subjected to do blood tests in the RDC of the same hospital. Consent was taken from the apparently healthy T2DM subjects who were willing to participate in the study (n=200). They were divided into two groups: experimental group & control group. The subjects of experimental group were imparted nutrition health education through interpersonal counseling at Department of Physiology of the same college with the help of booklets. The control group did not receive any intervention. The NHE was given over a period of 1 year. The IPC was given at an interval of 3 months. Blood glucose [fasting plasma glucose (FPG) & 2hr post prandial blood glucose (2hrPPBG)], HbA1c, & lipid profile was done at the end of each 3rd month. Statistical analysis was done by using paired âtâ test. There was significant reduction in FPG, HbA1c, total cholesterol, LDL-C, & non HDL-C in the experimental group than the control group. So advocacy measures are to be developed & adopted to sensitize theT2DM patients to build up their capacities.
