To investigate of AIDET communication model in caring for type 2 diabetes mellitus of hospitalized patients.

A total of 113 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus treated in our department from January 2018 to November 2019 were enrolled, and divided into the control group(receiving a conventional communication mode)and the observation group(receiving an AIDET communication mode)according to a time order in the selecting of the research patients.The changes of self-care behavior and glucose metabolism index were evaluated and analyzed between the two groups.

On admission, the fasting blood glucose, 2-h postprandial blood glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin were(9.1±1.7)mmol/L, (13.8±2.9)mmol/L and(8.4±3.5)% in the observation group, and(9.4±2.1)mmol/L, (14.1±3.2)mmol/L and(8.1±2.9)% in the control group, respectively, with no statistically significances(P>0.05). At discharge, the observation group versus the control group showed a statistically significantly improved levels in FPG of(5.9±1.5)mmol/Lvs.(7.8±1.9)mmol/L, in 2h-PBG of(10.1±3.7)mmol/L vs.(12.8±3.9)mmol/L and in glycosylated hemoglobin of(6.3±1.2)% vs.(7.5±0.9)%, respectively(P<0.05). The scores of management of poor blood glucose, foot care, blood glucose monitoring, medication compliance, regular exercise and diet control were higher in the observation group than in the control group at discharge(P<0.05).

The application of AIDET communication mode can effectively enhance the self-care behavior of patients and help improve the glucose metabolism in hospitalized patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.It has very positive effects on controlling the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus and improving the quality of life.
