Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this descriptive study was to examine holistic spiritual self-care practices, diabetes knowledge, and its association with self-care practices among African Americans diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. The objective was to determine if spiritual self-care practices correlated with diabetes self-care practices among African Americans. Design: A descriptive research design was used for African Americans living in a Midwestern urban area. Participants were at least 18 years of age and diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. Participants were excluded if they had a diagnosis of type 1 or gestational diabetes, and/or a history of dementia or psychiatric illness. Method: Ninety African American participants between 28 and 88 years of age completed four instruments to measure diabetes knowledge, diabetes self-care practices, and spiritual self-care practices. Findings: Statistically significant correlations were found between general diet and diabetic self-care practices, spiritual self-care practices, physical spiritual self-care practices, and interpersonal spiritual self-care practices. Conclusion: This research project provided evidence that nursing staff caring for African Americans diagnosed with type 2 DM may consider incorporating spiritual self-care practices with other holistic self-care practices when helping African Americans manage their DM. This study found that spiritual self-care practices were important for African Americans who participated with this study.

目的:这项描述性研究的目的是考察被诊断为 2 型糖尿病的非裔美国人的整体精神自我护理实践、糖尿病知识及其与自我护理实践之间的关联。目的是确定非裔美国人的精神自我护理实践是否与糖尿病自我护理实践相关。设计:对居住在美国中西部城市地区的非裔美国人采用描述性研究设计。参与者至少年满 18 周岁,并确诊患有 2 型糖尿病。如果被诊断为 1 型糖尿病或妊娠糖尿病,和/或有痴呆症或精神病史,则排除在外。研究方法年龄在 28 岁至 88 岁之间的 90 名非洲裔美国人完成了四种测量糖尿病知识、糖尿病自我护理实践和精神自我护理实践的工具。研究结果发现一般饮食与糖尿病自我护理实践、精神自我护理实践、身体精神自我护理实践和人际精神自我护理实践之间存在统计学意义上的相关性。结论:本研究项目为护理被诊断为2型糖尿病的非裔美国人的护理人员提供了证据,他们在帮助非裔美国人控制糖尿病时,可以考虑将精神自我护理实践与其他整体自我护理实践结合起来。本研究发现,精神自我护理实践对参与本研究的非裔美国人非常重要。

期刊介绍: Manuscripts are solicited that deal with the processes of knowledge development and application including research, concept analysis and theory development, practical applications of research and theory, clinical case studies and analysis, practice applications in general, educational approaches and evaluation, and aesthetic expressions of holistic knowledge. While the journal seeks to support work grounded in evidence, the editorial philosophy suggests that there are many diverse sources of “evidence” beyond the realm of what is called “empirical” and that many methods are appropriate for discovering evidence and generating knowledge.
