Abstract

Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by persistent hyperglycemia caused by impaired insulin production, decreased insulin sensitivity, or both. Poor glycemic control may lead to various serious complications. Physical activity is an essential component of diabetes management, and diabetic foot exercise has emerged as a simple, inexpensive, and easily implemented intervention. Nevertheless, evidence supporting its effectiveness remains limited. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of diabetic foot exercise on blood glucose levels in patients with diabetes mellitus. Methods: A quasi-experimental study using a pretest–posttest control group design was conducted among 40 patients with DM at Wawonasa Community Health Center, Manado, Indonesia. Participants were divided into an intervention group and a control group, each consisting of 20 individuals. The intervention group performed diabetic foot exercises for four weeks, while the control group received routine care. Results: Blood glucose levels decreased significantly in the intervention group (p<0.001), whereas no significant change was found in the control group (p=0.059). The reduction in blood glucose levels was significantly greater among participants who performed diabetic foot exercises (p=0.044). Conclusion: Diabetic foot exercise is an effective, safe, and low-cost strategy for improving glycemic control in patients with diabetes mellitus.

Abstract

Hospitalization of infants in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) may contribute to parental anxiety due to uncertainty about infant conditions, separation, and limited involvement in care. This study aimed to determine parental anxiety levels during NICU hospitalization and analyze their association with infant length of stay at RSD Tidore Kepulauan. A cross-sectional study was conducted among 30 parents of infants hospitalized in the NICU. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire, and parental anxiety was assessed using the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HARS). Infant length of stay was categorized as ≤3 days and ≥4 days. Data were analyzed using univariate analysis and the Chi-square test. Most respondents were mothers (73.3%), aged 25–35 years (53.3%), and had infants hospitalized for ≥4 days (73.3%). Anxiety levels varied, with 46.7% experiencing no anxiety, while others reported mild to very severe anxiety. The Chi-square test showed no significant association between parental anxiety and infant length of stay (p=0.946). Parental anxiety during NICU hospitalization was influenced by various factors beyond hospitalization duration. Family-centered care and psychological support are needed to improve parental adaptation during NICU care.
