| description | Introduction: Diabetes Mellitus is one of the major public health problems in the world due to its high prevalence and great impact on people's quality of life.
Objectives: to evaluate the influence of community intervention in type 2 diabetics of the Medical Office 175-176 of the "Hermanos Cruz" Polyclinic, in the period 2020-2022.
Methods: a quasi-experimental study of community intervention was carried out. The universe consisted of 80 patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus and the sample consisted of 50 patients with diabetes mellitus who met the inclusion criteria. The study had 3 stages, diagnosis, intervention and evaluation, and a questionnaire was applied to determine the level of knowledge before and after the intervention. For the preparation and analysis of the tables, descriptive statistical tests were applied (percentage, means, standard deviation) and McNemar's test at the inferential level.
Results: the largest number of patients were aged 60 years and over, more than half of them had a university degree. Before the application of the community intervention, most of them did not know about the aspects of diabetes mellitus, among them: definition, associated diseases, complications, risk factors, signs and symptoms, as well as habits and lifestyles. After the application of the educational intervention all patients significantly increased their cognitive level about the aspects related to diabetes mellitus.
Conclusions: The effectiveness of the community intervention was demonstrated. |
