Abstract:
Objective To understand the current status of illness benefit perception among caregivers of type 2 diabetes patients,analyze its relationship with coping strategies and social support,and explore its influencing factors.Methods Using a convenience sampling method,240 caregivers of type 2 diabetes patients hospitalized in the endocrinology department of a tertiary hospital in Kunming from October 2023 to October 2024 were selected.Questionnaires including general information survey,Benefit Finding Scale,Simplified Coping Strategy Scale,and Social Support Rating Scale were used to investigate the caregivers.Results The caregivers'benefit finding score was(66.82±16.73),coping strategy score was(36.01±9.64),and social support score was(42.00±8.11).Pearson correlation analysis showed positive correlations between coping styles,social support,and illness benefit perception(r=0.445,r=0.493,P<0.01);multiple linear regression analysis indicated that family residence,education level,duration of caregiving,and understanding of the patient's disease were key factors influencing illness benefit perception(P<0.01).Conclusion Caregivers of type 2 diabetes patients have a moderate level of illness benefit perception,with positive correlations between coping strategies,social support,and illness benefit perception.The disease benefit perception of caregivers is also influenced by family residence,education level,caregiving duration,and disease knowledge.
