Abstract

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is an escalating global health issue, characterised by its increasing prevalence and the significant complications it entails. Effective management of blood glucose levels is a critical component in preventing DM-related complications. This study aims to analyse the health profiles of elderly individuals based on Body Mass Index (BMI), blood pressure, and blood glucose levels. An observational cross-sectional design was employed, involving data collection at a single point in time to identify relationships between variables. The sample consisted of 120 respondents aged 60 and above residing in the Puskesmas Kagok area. Purposive sampling was utilised to select respondents based on inclusion criteria, specifically targeting elderly individuals willing to participate and without any medical conditions necessitating specialised care. The data revealed that the average BMI of respondents was 25.3, with 25% classified as normal weight, 50% as overweight, and 25% as obese. In terms of blood pressure, 58.33% of respondents were found to be hypertensive, while 41.67% were within the normal range. Additionally, the average random blood glucose level was 205 mg/dL, with 33.33% of respondents exhibiting glucose levels ≥ 200 mg/dL, indicating a high risk of diabetes. Demographic characteristics indicated that 66.7% of respondents were female, and 75% had been diagnosed with diabetes for over five years. Educational attainment varied, with 51.6% having completed secondary education and 31.7% possessing higher education qualifications. Notably, 46.6% of respondents were not engaged in employment. These findings highlight a high prevalence of overweight, hypertension, and elevated blood glucose levels among the elderly population in the Puskesmas Kagok area, underscoring the necessity for preventative measures and management of non-communicable diseases within this age group. It is anticipated that this research will provide valuable insights for the development of health programmes tailored to the needs of the elderly.

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is one of the significant global health problems, including in Indonesia, which is estimated to have a prevalence of up to 12% of the adult population by 2025. The disease causes serious complications, lowers the patient's quality of life, and increases the economic burden. An innovative, integrated multidisciplinary approach to lifestyle interventions is necessary for effective diabetes management. This study aims to develop and evaluate the effectiveness of multidisciplinary lifestyle intervention programs that include nutrition, physical activity, psychological support, and health education in the treatment of Diabetes Mellitus in patients at the Kgok Health Center, Semarang. This study uses a quasi-experimental design with a design of two pre-test and post-test groups. The sample in this study was selected using a purposive sampling technique consisting of 60 people with diabetes mellitus who were divided into two groups: the intervention group (n=30), who underwent an integrated lifestyle program, and the control group (n=30), who received standard care. Evaluation was carried out before and after the intervention for 1 month. The effects of the program were measured through a self-efficacy questionnaire, while health parameters included fasting blood sugar levels, blood pressure, and body mass index (BMI). Data normality tests were used using Shapiro-Wilk, and pre-post differences between groups were analyzed with Mann-Whitney tests due to abnormal data distribution (p< 0.05). The results showed that there was a significant influence on self-efficacy scores and decreased blood sugar and blood pressure levels in the intervention group compared to controls with a p< value of 0.05. Multidisciplinary lifestyle intervention programs are effective in improving the management of Diabetes Mellitus as well as the quality of life of patients. The output of this research became the basis for the development of educational modules for health workers and made an important contribution to the implementation of sustainable interventions in Indonesia.
