Abstract

Asam urat adalah kondisi peradangan sendi yang paling umum di seluruh dunia. Risiko kejadian asam urat meningkat seiring bertambahnya usia sehingga penyakit ini banyak ditemukan pada populasi lansia. Tindakan pencegahan terhadap memburuknya asam urat memerlukan pengetahuan dan informasi yang tepat tentang pola makan pasien asam urat. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh pendidikan diit asam urat terhadap kepatuhan diit asam urat. Desain penelitian menggunakan pendekatan pra-eksperimental dengan desain one-group pre-post-test. Sampel berjumlah 36 responden dengan teknik total sampling. Intervensi yang diberikan adalah edukasi diit asam urat yang diberikan kepada pasien asam urat. Instrumen yang digunakan adalah kuesioner kepatuhan diet asam urat yang terdiri dari 24 pernyataan. Pertama, diukur sebelum responden diberikan edukasi tentang diit asam urat. Kedua, diukur pada saat pelaksanaan (setelah responden mendapat edukasi pada bulan sebelumnya). Data dianalisis menggunakan Uji Wilcoxon. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan terdapat perbedaan yang signifikan kepatuhan diit asam urat pada lansia di Desa Pulo Sepang sebelum dan sesudah diberikan intervensi (p-value = 0,000; α<0,05). Pengetahuan yang baik tentang diit asam urat dapat meningkatkan kepatuhan penderita asam urat dalam menjalani diit asam urat. Edukasi mengenai pola makan asam urat merupakan salah satu cara untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan pasien mengenai makanan yang sebaiknya dikurangi atau bahkan dihindari dalam kehidupan sehari-hari.

Abstract

Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a global health problem with increasing prevalence. Controlling blood sugar levels through herbal interventions has become a popular alternative due to its accessibility, relative affordability, and minimal side effects. Palm sugar has a low glycemic index, while cinnamon contains active compounds that can improve insulin sensitivity. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of palm sugar and cinnamon herbal tea on blood sugar levels in patients with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. This study used a quasi-experimental design with a pre-post test approach in one treatment group conducted in Babussalam District, Southeast Aceh Regency. A total of 40 respondents diagnosed with type 2 DM were divided into an intervention group (n=20) given palm sugar and cinnamon herbal tea, and a control group (n=20) who only received dietary education. The intervention was given for 14 days at a dose of one glass per day. Fasting blood sugar levels were measured before and after the intervention. Data were analyzed using paired t-tests and independent t-tests. The majority of respondents were aged 45-60 years (65%), female (60%), and had a family history of type 2 diabetes (55%). The intervention group experienced a significant decrease in fasting blood sugar levels of 32.8 mg/dL (from 182.5±21.3 mg/dL to 149.7±18.5 mg/dL; p<0.001), while the control group only experienced a decrease of 6.3 mg/dL (p=0.087). Comparison between the two groups showed a significant difference (p<0.01).
