Abstract

DM is a health problem that affects productivity and reduces the quality of human resources. Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder caused by the pancreas not being able to produce enough insulin or the body not being able to use insulin effectively. Insulin is a hormone that regulates the balance of blood sugar levels. To regulate the balance of blood sugar levels, treatment that can be focused on diabetics is by changing lifestyle. The urgency of this research is that this research can help patients choose the right way to maintain blood sugar so as to prevent patients from getting diabetic complications and improve the quality of life of Diabetes Mellitus patients. The purpose of this study was to see how the experience of Diabetes Mellitus patients maintains Blood Sugar. This study uses qualitative research methods. The qualitative research method is research that uses an interpretive and naturalistic approach to the focus of the research.

Abstract

Background: Cardiac arrest is an emergency condition that often occurs outside the hospital. Knowledge of Basic Life Support (BLS) and techniques for performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation can improve patient survival until medical assistance arrives, this can sustain a patient's life in many cases. Ordinary and trained lay people, including security guards, need to be alert when helping victims by providing basic life support in order to increase the survival of sufferers, but the failure of efforts to save victims is due to BLS actions that are not in accordance with procedures. Methods: This research is a quantitative research with a descriptive approach with a sample of 75 security guards working in Ruteng City. Results: The results of the analysis of this study show that most of the security guards in Ruteng City, namely 77% (58 people) have poor knowledge about BLS, 16% have sufficient knowledge about BLS, and only 7% have good knowledge about BLS. Suggestion: Security guards must receive periodic training on Basic Life Support, this is done to reduce the mortality rate of cardiac arrest victims outside the hospital.
