摘要

目的 为进一步提高老年2型糖尿病治疗效果，提高患者自我管理行为，降低并发症对生活质量的影响，本文将围绕自我管理健康教育方法在老年2型糖尿病护理中的应用价值开展讨论，以期为此类患者推荐切实可行实践参考方案。方法 实验时间选择在2025年1月开始，至2025年12月结束，将该期间接受治疗老年2型糖尿病患者作为观察对象，筛选其中80例，利用电脑随机分配方法将所有患者均分成两组，分别实施常规管理（对照组）、常规管理基础上的自我管理健康教育方法（观察组），对相关数据进行统计、对比，分析观察结果差异。结果 与对照组相较，观察组患者血糖水平明显降低，自我管理行为评分、生活质量评分均显优，两组数据对比P＜0.05。结论 在老年2型糖尿病患者中开展自我管理健康教育方法，可明显提高患者自我管理认知与行为，提高血糖水平控制效果，对并发症的预防和生活质量的提升显示积极辅助作用，值得临床给予高度重视，并作为可靠护理方案推广。

Abstract

Objective To further improve the treatment efficacy of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in elderly patients, enhance their self-management behaviors, and reduce the impact of complications on quality of life, this study discusses the application value of self-management health education methods in the nursing care of elderly T2DM patients, aiming to provide practical and feasible reference protocols for such patients.
Methods The study was conducted from January 2025 to December 2025. A total of 80 elderly T2DM patients undergoing treatment during this period were selected as observation subjects. Using computerized random allocation, all patients were divided into two groups: the conventional management group (control group) and the conventional management plus self-management health education group (observation group). Relevant data were statistically analyzed and compared to assess differences in outcomes.
Results Compared with the control group, the observation group showed significantly lower blood glucose levels, superior self-management behavior scores, and improved quality of life scores (P<0.05).
Conclusion   Implementing self-management health education methods in elderly T2DM patients can significantly enhance their self-management cognition and behaviors, improve glycemic control, and demonstrate positive auxiliary effects in complication prevention and quality of life improvement. This approach warrants clinical attention and should be promoted as a reliable nursing protocol.
