Abstract:
Objective:To explore the cognition, needs and source of knowledge of subcutaneous injection with insulin pens in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) , to analysis the influencing factors of their knowledge level.Methods:Totally 132 T2DM and MCI patients hospitalized in Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University from July 2016 to July 2018 were selected using convenient sampling. The questionnaire survey was used to collect the general information of the research subjects and their cognition, needs and source of knowledge of subcutaneous injection with insulin pens. Univariate and multiple linear analysis was used to analyze the factors affecting the knowledge of subcutaneous injection with insulin pens in T2DM and MCI patients.Results:The most desired knowledge of insulin pen injection for T2DM and MCI patients was the correct injection method (81.82%) and the choice of injection site (75.00%) . The main source of insulin pen injection knowledge for T2DM and MCI patients was community health promotion (72.73%) and patient experience sharing (64.39%) . The total score of diabetes knowledge of the patients was (22.20±5.40) . The univariate analysis showed that the knowledge of insulin pen injection was statistically significantly different between T2DM and MCI patients with different educational backgrounds, course of diabetes, monthly household income per capita, duration of insulin pen use, and whether they received training ( P<0.05) . The multiple linear regression analysis revealed that educational background, course of diabetes, duration of insulin pen use and whether they have received training were the influencing factors of the knowledge of insulin pen injection knowledge in T2DM and MCI patients ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The knowledge of subcutaneous injection with insulin pens in T2DM and MCI patients is relatively lacking, especially in patients with low educational background, short course of diabetes, short duration of insulin pen use and no training. Nursing educators should strengthen the education of relevant knowledge such as insulin injection methods and injection sites, and pay attention to the role of community hospitals and peer support to meet the needs of patients for relevant knowledge.
