This study used a Pre-Experiment research design with a group Pretest post-test design. The population was all patients with diabetes mellitus and diabetic ulcers, and the sample was taken using the accidental sampling technique, totalling 37 people. Data analysis using the Wilcoxon Sign Rank Test Most of the wound healing before being given aloe vera extract was quite good. Namely, 26 people, or 70.3%, most wound healing after being given aloe vera extract was good; 28 people or 75.7%, there was an effect of providing aloe vera extract to wound healing in Diabetes Mellitus patients with a value of p = 0.000.

Abstract

Diabetes Mellitus is a metabolic disorder involving dysfunction of the pancreas, resulting in insulin's inability to effectively convert blood glucose into energy. Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus is often caused by obesity and unhealthy dietary habits, making dietary regulation essential for lowering blood sugar levels. Adherence to a recommended diet requires strong motivation, which serves as a key support system. Without sufficient motivation, maintaining dietary commitment becomes challenging. This commitment refers to a person’s willingness to follow the treatment regimen as advised by healthcare professionals. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between blood glucose levels and diet commitment in relation to self-motivation among patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. This research employed a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design. The results of the Spearman Rho test showed a p-value = 0.000 (< 0.05), indicating a significant relationship between self-motivation and diet commitment toward blood glucose levels in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. It can thus be concluded that there is a correlation between blood glucose levels and diet commitment as influenced by self-motivation in these patients.
