Abstract:
Objective To investigate the influence of Wechat follow-up on the treatment compliance and quality of life for young adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.Methods A total of 120 cases, who were able to use Wechat independently,were selected as the research objects from patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus during February 2015 to December 2015. They were randomly divided into control group (60 cases) and intervention group (60 cases). Patients in control group received routine nursing and health education,while patients in intervention group received knowledge about type 2 diabetes mellitus and nursing care through Wechat. Data of the patients in these two groups were obtained after 6 months. And the parameters including treatment compliance,blood glucose control,the incidence of complications,sleeping quality (PSQI), depression (SDS),and anxiety (SAS) of these patients were analyzed.Results After intervention,the score of treatment compliance in intervention group (12.7±1.5) was higher than (8.7±1.7) of control group (t=-3.056, P<0.05). The compliance of reasonable diet,standardized medication,moderate exercise,benign psychology and regular blood glucose monitoring for intervention group were significantly improved than that of control group (P<0.05). The infection,glycopenia,diabetic eye diseases,acute complications in the intervention group were lower than that of control group (P<0.05),but neuropathy and rate of nephropathy in intervention group were better than that of control group,but there were no statistical significance (P>0.05). Before intervention, there were no statistical significance between two groups in the levels of fasting blood glucose,postprandial 2 h plasma glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin,as well as PSQI,SDS and SAS (P>0.05). However,the levels of fasting blood glucose,postprandial 2h plasma glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin,as well as PSQI,SDS and SAS were significantly decreased compared with the control group with statistical significance (P<0.05). Conclusions Follow-up by Wechat can effectively improve the treatment compliance of young adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus,and improve the quality of life and patients' satisfaction.
