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.

Abstract

The increasing prevalence of hypertension, influenced by unhealthy lifestyles and lack of awareness, poses a serious public health issue. This project aims to introduce non-pharmacological holistic nursing interventions to support hypertension management within the community. The approach includes the application of warm foot soaking (hydrotherapy), foot massage, and hypertension exercises as simple and cost-effective therapies. A community-based health education and demonstration program was implemented to enhance public knowledge and encourage the independent practice of these interventions. The activity involved residents from Kelayan Timur who actively participated in the sessions. The results indicated improved understanding and willingness among participants to adopt the proposed therapies in daily life. This initiative demonstrated that non-pharmacological interventions can be well-received and practically applied in community settings, offering a valuable alternative in hypertension care. The conclusion highlights the effectiveness and sustainability of holistic methods as a supportive measure in managing hypertension, which can be disseminated through continued collaboration with healthcare institutions.
