The Effect of Dietary and Exercise Self-Management Support Program on Dietary Behavior Exercise Behavior and Clinical Outcomes in Muslim Patients with Poorly Controlled Type 2 DM in a Community Setting in Indonesia

Abstract

Purpose: The objective of this study was to examine the effect of dietary and exercise self-management support program on the dietary behavior, exercise behavior, and clinical outcomes of Muslim patients with poorly controlled type 2 DM in Indonesia. Methods: This study was a quasi-experimental, two group, pre-test and post-test design. The experimental group received the dietary and exercise self-management support program and usual care, whereas the control group only received the usual nursing care. Result: 35 subjects in the experimental group and 35 subjects in the control group completed the program, respectively. The findings indicated that there are significantly differences in dietary behavior (p=.00), exercise behavior (p=.00) and clinical outcomes: fasting blood glucose (FBG) (p=.00), cholesterol total level (p=.01) and systolic blood pressure (p=.00) between the experimental group and control group. However, for the BMI status (p=.84) and diastolic blood pressure (BP) (p=.32) were no significant differences between two groups. Conclusion: The dietary and exercise self-management support program was effective for improving the dietary behavior, exercise behavior, FBG, and total cholesterol level for individuals with poorly controlled type 2 diabetes mellitus. Further studies should be replicated using larger groups over a longer time frame.

Effect of a Ten-Week Short Message Service-Based Intervention on Self-Management of Type-2 Diabetes Patients in Bali, Indonesia

“…The present study attempted to bridge this gap by evaluating the impact of a ten-week automated text-message-based diabetes self-management program on patients' self-care practices in managing their disease, measured using the revised version of the SDSCA instrument. Patients' ability to perform self-management will eventually improve their health outcomes by preventing complications or slowing the disease progression (Holtz & Lauckner, 2012;Mulvaney et al, 2012;Pamungkas et al, 2015).…”

Effects of Peer Support Program on Self-Management in Patients with End-Stage Renal Disease Undergoing Hemodialysis

“…Social support has become an influencing factor in chronic disease patients' participation in health behavior (Pamungkas, Chinnawong, & Kritpracha, 2015). Most HD patients do not work and spend a lot of time undergoing treatment, and social support becomes a very important requirement (Kusuma, Ropyanto, Widyaningsih, & Sujianto, 2018).…”

“…Furthermore, the patients also had the opportunity to share their experiences with other patients, assessed problem solving, anticipated obstacles, and maintained new behaviors during the program. Such factors promoted problem-solving, anticipation of obstacles, and maintenance of new behaviors (Pamungkas et al, 2015). These methods made patients more confident in their abilities in order to deal with their conditions.…”
