Abstrak Kontrol glukosa darah dapat dipertahankan melalui perawatan mandiri. Motivasi melakukan self monitoring blood glucose (SMBG) yang baik dapat meningkatkan diabetes self management pada pasien diabetes melitus tipe 2. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui hubungan motivasi melakukan SMBG dengan diabetes self management pada pasien diabetes melitus tipe 2. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kuantitatif observasional analitik dengan pendekatan crossectional, melibatkan 96 pasien. Alat ukur yang digunakan berupa kuesioner karakteristik responden, Treatment Self Regulation Questionare, Diabetes Self Management Questionare, Diabetes Knowledge Scale. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan terdapat hubungan yang bermakna antara motivasi melakukan SMBG dengan diabetes self management (p = 0,001). Hasil analisis regresi logistik menunjukkan motivasi melakukan SMBG berhubungan dengan didabetes self management setelah dikontrol variabel pengetahuan. Kesimpulan diperlukan perhatian khusus dari perawat untuk meningkatkan motivasi melakukan SMBG pada pasien diabetes melitus tipe 2 dalam self care management.  Kata kunci : Motivasi, SMBG, diabetes self management  Abstract Glycemic control could be maintained through diabetes self-management. Motivation to perform self-monitoring blood glucose (SMBG) could improve diabetes self-management in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients. The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between motivation to perform SMBG and diabetes self-management in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. This study applied quantitative method with a cross sectional approach, involving 96 patients. The Instruments used were questionnaires for respondent characteristics, Treatment Self-Regulation Questionnaire, Diabetes Self Management Questionnaire and Diabetes Knowledge Scale. The results show that there was a significant relationship between motivation to perform SMBG and diabetes self-management (p = 0,001). Results of logistic regression analysis showed that motivation to perform SMBG is associated with diabetes self-management after controlled by knowledge variable. In conclusion it is  a necessarily for nurses to  provide attention to increase motivation to perform SMBG in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus as part of self care management. Keywords: Motivation, SMBG, diabetes self management

Background: The prevalence of Diabetes mellitus (DM) is increasing worldwide. The complications of DM arising from hyperglycaemia are well documented and. However, there is a lack of data, poor awareness and information on hypoglycaemia in DM. Objective: To describe the prevalence and factors associated with hypoglycaemia among patients with Type 2 Diabetes mellitus (DM). Methods: This was a retrospective study of the clinical records of patients with Type 2 DM at the Family Medicine Clinic of a Nigerian teaching hospital from January 2019 to January 2020. The sociodemographic and clinical characteristics, including hypoglycaemia, Glycosylated Haemoglobin (HbA1c), Fasting and Random blood glucose, were retrieved. Results: A total number of 570 patients were assessed, with a prevalence of 43 (7.5%) of hypoglycaemia. The mean age of the patients in the study was 58.2±10.9 years (range: 36-83 years). Metformin (557; 97.7%), Sulphonylureas (377; 66.1%), Dipeptidylpeptidase -4 inhibitors (137; 24.0%) and insulin (72; 12.6%) were the most prescribed anti-diabetic medications. hypoglycaemiaA majority (29; 67.4%) of the hypoglycaemia episodes occurred in the morning, while most (24; 55.8%) of the episodes of hypoglycaemia were mild. Mean age (t= 2.35; p = 0.019), presence of hypertension (X2 = 6.92, p = 0.008) and dyslipidaemia (X2 = 7.86, p = 0.005) were associated with hypoglycaemia. Conclusions: The prevalence of hypoglycaemia in the Outpatient clinic was low, while the presence of comorbidities                                   (hypertension and dyslipidaemia) and age were associated with hypoglycaemia. There is a need for patient education and Self-Monitoring of Blood Glucose (SMBG) to prevent complications of hypoglycaemia. hypoglycaemia

Objective:The aim of this study was to evaluate if intensified self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) improves glycemic control in insulin-treated subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods:Ninety-six adults with stable but poorly controlled [glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) level >7.5%] T2DM receiving twice-daily biphasic insulin were randomly assigned to either of the two groups: intensive monitors (IM) that performed SMBG at least twice daily or conventional monitors (CM) that performed SMBG at their discretionary frequency for 12 weeks. Demographic, clinical, and glycemic indices, including fasting blood glucose (FBG), postprandial glucose (PPG), and HbA1c, were compared at baseline and week 12. Results:A total of 71 subjects (25 IM and 46 CM) completed the study. Both groups had similar HbA1c at baseline. From baseline to week 12, the IM group had higher mean daily test strip usage (P <0.001), engaged in more frequent insulin dose adjustments (P <0.001), and attained greater daily insulin dosage (P = 0.002). All glycemic indices including FBG, PPG, and HbA1c improved significantly from baseline to week 12 in the IM but not in the CM group. HbA1c level declined by −1.2 ±0.4% in the IM group (P = 0.002). There was no difference in the frequency of hypoglycemia in both groups. The monthly cost of intensified SMBG was nearly four times that of conventional monitoring (P <0.001). Conclusion:Both short- and long-term glycemic control significantly improved by intensified SMBG in stable but poorly controlled insulin-treated adults with T2DM. Intensified SMBG enabled better self-titration of insulin and probably other self-care practices. This benefit, however, occurred at the expense of costs that may be difficult to sustain in resource-poor countries.
