Objective: To assess self-management in patients receiving glucocorticoid replacement therapy for primary or secondary adrenal failure before and 6 months after a glucocorticoid education group meeting. Methods: All patients with primary or secondary adrenal insufficiency, treated at the Department of Medicine, Division of Endocrinology, were invited by their endocrinologist to participate in a 3-h glucocorticoid education group meeting, consisting of a lecture about the disease and glucocorticoid doses adjustments in case of stress, followed by an instruction on how to inject hydrocortisone i.m. Finally, all participants could practise the i.m. injection and discuss their experience with (imminent) adrenal crises with other patients and the health care providers. Two weeks before the meeting and 6 months after the meeting, patients were asked to fill out a questionnaire about how they would act in six different conditions (e.g. febrile illness or vomiting). Results: Of the 405 patients who were invited, 246 patients (61%) participated. At baseline the response by the participants on the questionnaire was 100% (nZ246) and at follow-up 74% (nZ183). At follow-up, significantly more participants (P%0.005) gave the correct answers to how to act in different situations (e.g. self-administration of a glucocorticoid injection and phone contact in case of vomiting/diarrhoea without fever). Moreover, the use of self-management tools, such as having a 'medicine passport (travel document with information about disease and medication) (PZ0.007) or SOS medallion (PZ0.0007)', increased. Conclusion: A glucocorticoid education group meeting for patients with adrenal failure seems helpful to improve self-management and proper use of stress-related glucocorticoid dose adjustment.

Managing diabetes can be a daunting task for patients with cancer. Empowerment-based diabetes education and motivational interviewing are complementary approaches. Oncology nurses may feel unprepared to teach patients and their families about self-care for diabetes, but they provide individualized information on symptom management of cancer throughout hospitalization and at discharge. The essential self-care issues include food, exercise, medication, blood glucose monitoring, prevention, recognition and treatment of hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia, and when and how to get additional medical and educational support. This patient-centered model of diabetes education differs from the older "compliance" model that covers many universal rules for all patients, which are predetermined by the nurse. Informing nurses about their role in care of patients with cancer and diabetes is critical.The incidence of diabetes in the United States continues to rise, with 23.6 million Americans (8% of the population) affected (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention [CDC], 2007). Healthy People 2010 (2000a) has two major goals: increase quality and years of healthy life and eliminate health disparities. The priority focus regarding diabetes is reducing the economic burden and improving quality of life for all people who have or are at risk for diabetes (Healthy People 2010, 2000b. The treatment of diabetes and its accompanying complications are costly, $100 billion annually in the United States and continuing to rise (Garber et al., 2004). Diabetes affects 8%-18% of patients with cancer and can negatively influence the outcomes of treatment (Psarakis, 2006;Singer, 2007). The American Cancer Society ([ACS], 2008) estimates that 1.4 million new cases of cancer will be diagnosed in 2008, and 112,000-252,000 also will have or develop diabetes, making it a significant comorbid condition. Peripheral neuropathies in people with diabetes coupled with chemotherapeutic agents can result in increased toxicities, morbidities, and the potential for treatment discontinuation (Visovsky, Meyer, Roller, & Poppas, 2008).Many patients with cancer have diabetes, usually type 2 or pre-diabetes, at the time of diagnosis and require dual management of the two conditions (Psarakis, 2006). In addition, several chemotherapeutic regimens such as CHOP (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone) and combinations of steroids can lead to hyperglycemia (Oyer, Shah, & Bettenhausen, 2006 ) recommends an HgA1c less than 7%, which reflects an average blood glucose of less than 170 mg/dl. The closer a patient is to that goal, the less he or she is at risk of developing microvascular complications (ADA). The target goal of less than 170 mg/dl may have to be assessed based on clinical presentation of the patient and existing health problems.Oncology nurses care for patients with chronic diseases, cancer, and diabetes, and educating and supporting patients with diabetes are critical. Most patients with diabetes self-manage the condition through ...
