Effect of home diabetes care platform based on internet and family fixed partner on the continuous care of diabetes patients outside the hospital / 中国实用护理杂志

Objective To investigate the effect of home diabetes care platform based on internet and family fixed partner on the continuous care of diabetes patients outside the hospital.Methods A total of 150 out-patients with diabetes were collected from June 2016 to November 2016,divided into family fixed partner group(group A),smart phone APP home diabetes care platform group(group B),family fixed partner combination with smart phone APP home diabetes care platform group(group C)with 50 cases each by random digits table method.The three groups received the same health education during their stay in hospital,patients in group A and group C were required to have family fixed partners,patients in group B and group C were required to receive the home diabetes care platform for smart phones APP after they left the hospital,the intervention time was six months,and the indexes of blood glucose metabolism,self-management ability of diabetes were assessed at the end of six months after intervention and before intervention.Results Fasting blood glucose and postprandial blood glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin values of the three groups after intervention were lower than those before intervention.The postprandial blood glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin values was(9.96±4.23)mmol/L,(7.16±1.47)%in group C,(13.78±3.34),(11.46±4.85)mmol/L and(8.46±2.21)%,(8.07±2.45)%in group A and B,the difference was significant(F=10.57,3.92,P＜0.05).The scores of self-management ability of diabetes of the three groups after intervention were all higher than those before intervention.The score of self-management ability of diabetes of item 1-6 was(6.45±1.65),(4.87±2.23),(6.17±2.12),(5.24±1.65),(4.67±2.13),(6.27±2.02)points in group C,(5.78±1.96),(3.63±2.14),(5.25±2.34),(4.12±1.97),(3.65±1.34),(5.26±2.21)points in group B,(5.04±1.78),(3.37±1.64),(4.63±1.87),(4.03±2.17),(3.32±1.74),(5.30±1.97)points in group A,the difference was statistically significant(F=3.82-7.94,P＜0.05).Conclusions Home diabetes care platform based on internet,combined with family fixed partner education,are more conductive to patient blood sugar control,and enhance self-management ability and account ability.

Reliability and validity of the chinese version of self-stigma scale for patients with diabetes / 中国实用护理杂志

Objective To translate the Self-Stigma Scale (SSS )into chinese version and check its reliability and validity. Methods The Chinese version of Self-Stigma Scale was translated by Brislin method, the reliability and validity was tested in 750 diabetes patients. Results The Chinese version of Self-Stigma Scale includs 28 items three dimensions. Total scale Cronbach′s α :0.949, all subscales>0.8, Retest reliability coefficient:0.873.The scale average validity index (S-CVI/Ave) was 0.944. Confirmatory factor analysis results show that the GFI: AGFI: 0.833, 0.805, RMSEA: 0.065 the fitting indicators show that the fitting is good. Conclusions The revised Chinese SSS has good reliability and validity. It can be a suitable tool to evaluate stigma level of diabetes patient.
