This paper reports pre-post test results on two groups; the purpose is to enhance therapeutic adherence (TA) of Diabetes Mellitus Type 2 (DM2) patients. The sample included 11 patients in the control group and 11 in the experimental group, being served at a public hospital in México. All patients were administered two tests in order to assess their lifestyle and therapeutic adherence. Also pre and post intervention glucose levels were obtained. The intervention consisted of six 40-minutes individual meetings based on motivational interviewing. Seven out of the eleven patients in the intervention group changed their TA level. The pre and post intergroup glucose levels of the experimental group showed statistical differences (p≤0.05). We concluded the intervention was effective to increase the TA in DM2 patients. However, it is important to understand that women, due to personal and cultural considerations, face more difficulties to reach a good level of AT. |
