<![CDATA[Diabetes melitus (DM) tipe II merupakan penyakit kronis yang memerlukan pengelolaan seumur hidup, salah satunya melalui kepatuhan terhadap pengaturan diet. Perubahan pola makan yang harus dijalani pasien sering menimbulkan stres sehingga dapat menghambat keberhasilan pengendalian penyakit. Self-management merupakan komponen penting dalam pengelolaan DM yang berperan meningkatkan kemampuan pasien dalam mengelola penyakit dan beradaptasi terhadap perubahan gaya hidup. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis hubungan self-management diabetes dengan tingkat stres dalam menjalani diet pada penderita DM tipe II di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Pekauman Banjarmasin. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain kuantitatif dengan pendekatan cross-sectional. Sebanyak 63 responden dipilih menggunakan teknik purposive sampling. Data dikumpulkan menggunakan kuesioner self-management diabetes dan kuesioner tingkat stres dalam menjalani diet. Analisis hubungan antarvariabel dilakukan menggunakan uji Spearman Rank dengan tingkat signifikansi 5%. Sebagian besar responden memiliki self-management dalam kategori buruk (49,2%) dan mengalami tingkat stres berat dalam menjalani diet (60,3%). Hasil analisis menggunakan uji Spearman Rank menunjukkan bahwa terdapat hubungan yang bermakna antara self-management diabetes dengan tingkat stres dalam menjalani diet pada penderita DM tipe II (p < 0,05). Nilai koefisien korelasi yang diperoleh sebesar r = 0,298, yang menunjukkan bahwa kekuatan hubungan antara kedua variabel berada pada kategori lemah. Berdasarkan arah hubungan, hasil ini mengindikasikan bahwa semakin baik kemampuan self-management yang dimiliki pasien, maka semakin rendah tingkat stres yang dialami dalam menjalani pengaturan diet. Self-management diabetes berhubungan signifikan dengan tingkat stres menjalani diet pada penderita DM tipe II.Type II diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic disease that requires lifelong management, one aspect of which is adherence to dietary regulation. The dietary changes patients must undergo often induce stress, which can hinder the successful control of the disease. Self-management is an important component in the management of DM, playing a role in improving patients' ability to manage their disease and adapt to lifestyle changes. This study aims to analyze the relationship between diabetes self-management and stress levels in following a diet among type II DM patients in the working area of Puskesmas Pekauman Banjarmasin. This study used a quantitative design with a cross-sectional approach. A total of 63 respondents were selected using purposive sampling technique. Data were collected using a diabetes self-management questionnaire and a stress level in dietary adherence questionnaire. The relationship between variables was analyzed using the Spearman Rank test with a significance level of 5%. Most respondents had self-management in the poor category (49.2%) and experienced high levels of stress in following their diet (60.3%). The results of the analysis using the Spearman Rank test showed that there was a significant relationship between diabetes self-management and stress levels in following a diet among type II DM patients (p < 0.05). The correlation coefficient obtained was r = 0.298, indicating that the strength of the relationship between the two variables falls into the weak category. Based on the direction of the relationship, these results indicate that the better a patient's self-management ability, the lower the stress level experienced in following dietary regulation. Diabetes self-management is significantly related to stress levels in following a diet among type II DM patients.]]>
